Older versions of AsciiDoc would convert the "--" in "--option" into an emdash. According to 565e135 (Documentation: quote double-dash for AsciiDoc, 2011-06-29), this is fixed in AsciiDoc 8.3.0. According to bf17126, we don't support anything older than 8.4.1 anyway, so we no longer need to worry about quoting. Even though this does not change the output at all, there are a few good reasons to drop the quoting: 1. It makes the source prettier to read. 2. We don't quote consistently, which may be confusing when reading the source. 3. Asciidoctor does not like the quoting, and renders a literal backslash.

git-show - Show various types of objects
|

SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git show' [options] <object>...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Shows one or more objects (blobs, trees, tags and commits).
|
|
|
|
For commits it shows the log message and textual diff. It also
|
|
presents the merge commit in a special format as produced by
|
|
'git diff-tree --cc'.
|
|
|
|
For tags, it shows the tag message and the referenced objects.
|
|
|
|
For trees, it shows the names (equivalent to 'git ls-tree'
|
|
with --name-only).
|
|
|
|
For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents.
|
|
|
|
The command takes options applicable to the 'git diff-tree' command to
|
|
control how the changes the commit introduces are shown.
|
|
|
|
This manual page describes only the most frequently used options.
|
|
