I think having a few examples within the explanations helps the reader
visualize what commands look like, and understand better further
explanations.
Plus, the example explains quickly the + which isn't documented
otherwise (but people reading this probably already know what a refspec
is and what the + normally means in this context so it's probably
sufficient to explain it as a side remark in an example)
