Documentation/urls.txt: Use substitution to escape square brackets
This changes "[user@]" to use {startsb} and {endsb} to insert [ and ], similar to how {caret} is used in git-rev-parse.txt. [jc: Removed a well-intentioned comment that broke the final formatting from the original patch. While we are at it, updated the paragraph that claims to be equivalent to the section that was updated earlier without making matching changes.] Signed-off-by: Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
