Similarly to the previous commit, use backquotes instead of
forward-quotes, for long options.
This was obtained with:
perl -pi -e "s/'(--[a-z][a-z=<>-]*)'/\`\$1\`/g" *.txt
and manual tweak to remove false positive in ascii-art (o'--o'--o' to
describe rewritten history).

It was common in our documentation to surround short option names with
forward quotes, which renders as italic in HTML. Instead, use backquotes
which renders as monospace. This is one more step toward conformance to
Documentation/CodingGuidelines.

The two alternative ways to spell "ssh://" transport have been
deprecated for a long time. The last mention of them has finally
removed from the documentation.

Disown ssh+git and git+ssh
Some people argue that these were silly from the beginning (see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/285590/focus=285601
for example), but we have to support them for compatibility.
That doesn't mean we have to show them in the documentation. These
were already left out of the main list, but a reference in the main
manpage was left, so remove that.
Also add a note to discourage their use if anybody goes looking for them
in the source code.

It turns out "git clone" over rsync transport has been broken when
the source repository has packed references for a long time, and
nobody noticed nor complained about it.
* jk/drop-rsync-transport:
transport: drop support for git-over-rsync
The git-over-rsync protocol is inefficient and broken, and
has been for a long time. It transfers way more objects than
it needs (grabbing all of the remote's "objects/",
regardless of which objects we need). It does its own ad-hoc
parsing of loose and packed refs from the remote, but
doesn't properly override packed refs with loose ones,
leading to garbage results (e.g., expecting the other side
to have an object pointed to by a stale packed-refs entry,
or complaining that the other side has two copies of the
refs[1]).
This latter breakage means that nobody could have
successfully pulled from a moderately active repository
since cd547b4 (fetch/push: readd rsync support, 2007-10-01).
We never made an official deprecation notice in the release
notes for git's rsync protocol, but the tutorial has marked
it as such since 914328a (Update tutorial., 2005-08-30).
And on the mailing list as far back as Oct 2005, we can find
Junio mentioning it as having "been deprecated for quite
some time."[2,3,4]. So it was old news then; cogito had
deprecated the transport in July of 2005[5] (though it did
come back briefly when Linus broke git-http-pull!).
Of course some people professed their love of rsync through
2006, but Linus clarified in his usual gentle manner[6]:
> Thanks! This is why I still use rsync, even though
> everybody and their mother tells me "Linus says rsync is
> deprecated."
No. You're using rsync because you're actively doing
something _wrong_.
The deprecation sentiment was reinforced in 2008, with a
mention that cloning via rsync is broken (with no fix)[7].
Even the commit porting rsync over to C from shell (cd547b4)
lists it as deprecated! So between the 10 years of informal
warnings, and the fact that it has been severely broken
since 2007, it's probably safe to simply remove it without
further deprecation warnings.
