Hi,

Are you sure?  My copy of git.1.gz has backticks converted into no
formatting at all:

	Other options are available to control how the manual page is displayed\&. See
	\fBgit-help\fR(1)
	for more information, because
	git \-\-help \&.\&.\&.
	is converted internally into
	git help \&.\&.\&.\&.

Thanks,
Jonathan
