git-config: fix misworded --type=path explanation
When `--type=<type>` was added as a prefered alias for `--<type>` by
fb0dc3bac1 (builtin/config.c: support `--type=<type>` as preferred
alias for `--<type>`), the explanation for the path type was
reworded. Whereas the previous explanation said "expand a leading
`~`" this was changed to "adding a leading `~`". Change "adding" to
"expanding" to correctly explain the canonicalization.

This specifier has no effect when setting the value (but you can use `git config section.variable ~/` from the command line to let your shell do the expansion.) |
