Jonathan Nieder 483bc4f045 Documentation formatting and cleanup
Following what appears to be the predominant style, format
names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`.

While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some
places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page
synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

===============
NAME
----
git-shortlog - Summarize 'git log' output
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
git log --pretty=short | 'git shortlog' [-h] [-n] [-s] [-e] [-w]
git shortlog [-n|--numbered] [-s|--summary] [-e|--email] [-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]] [<committish>...]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Summarizes `git-log` output in a format suitable for inclusion
in release announcements. Each commit will be grouped by author and
the first line of the commit message will be shown.
Additionally, "[PATCH]" will be stripped from the commit description.
OPTIONS
-------
-h::
--help::
Print a short usage message and exit.
-n::
--numbered::
Sort output according to the number of commits per author instead
of author alphabetic order.
-s::
--summary::
Suppress commit description and provide a commit count summary only.
-e::
--email::
Show the email address of each author.
-w[<width>[,<indent1>[,<indent2>]]]::
Linewrap the output by wrapping each line at `width`. The first
line of each entry is indented by `indent1` spaces, and the second
and subsequent lines are indented by `indent2` spaces. `width`,
`indent1`, and `indent2` default to 76, 6 and 9 respectively.
FILES
-----
If the file `.mailmap` exists, it will be used for mapping author
email addresses to a real author name. One mapping per line, first
the author name followed by the email address enclosed by
'<' and '>'. Use hash '#' for comments. Example:
------------
# Keep alphabetized
Adam Morrow <adam@localhost.localdomain>
Eve Jones <eve@laptop.(none)>
