Documentation: remove extra quoting/emphasis around literal texts
If literal text (asciidoc `...`) can be rendered in a differently from
normal text for each output format (man, HTML), then we do not need
extra quotes or other wrapping around inline literal text segments.
config.txt
Change '`...`' to `...`. In asciidoc, the single quotes provide
emphasis, literal text should be distintive enough.
Change "`...`" to `...`. These double quotes do not work if present
in the described config value, so drop them.
git-checkout.txt
Change "`...`" to `...` or `"..."`. All instances are command line
argument examples. One "`-`" becomes `-`. Two others are involve
curly braces, so move the double quotes inside the literal region to
indicate that they might need to be quoted on the command line of
certain shells (tcsh).
git-merge.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are used to describe merge
conflict markers. The quotes should are not important.
git-rev-parse.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are around command line
arguments where no in-shell quoting should be necessary.
gitcli.txt
Change `"..."` to `...`. All instances are around command line
examples or single command arguments. They do not semanticly belong
inside the literal text, and they are not needed outside it.
glossary-content.txt
user-manual.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances were around command lines.
