Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: use {asterisk} in rev-list-options.txt when needed
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2012 16:35:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330443348-5742-1-git-send-email-cmn@elego.de> (raw)

Text between to '*' is emphasized in AsciiDoc which made the
glob-related explanations in rev-list-options.txt very confusing, as
the rendered text would be missing two asterisks and the text between
them would be emphasized instead.

Use '{asterisk}' where needed to make them show up as asterisks in the
rendered text.
