Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list of the options a git command accepts. Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

OPTIONS
-------
-\--receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>::
+--receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>::
Path to the 'git-receive-pack' program on the remote
end. Sometimes useful when pushing to a remote
repository over ssh, and you do not have the program in
a directory on the default $PATH.
-\--exec=<git-receive-pack>::
+--exec=<git-receive-pack>::
Same as \--receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>.
-\--all::
+--all::
Instead of explicitly specifying which refs to update,
update all heads that locally exist.
-\--dry-run::
+--dry-run::
Do everything except actually send the updates.
-\--force::
+--force::
Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that
is not an ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it.
This flag disables the check. What this means is that
the remote repository can lose commits; use it with
care.
-\--verbose::
+--verbose::
Run verbosely.
-\--thin::
+--thin::
Spend extra cycles to minimize the number of objects to be sent.
Use it on slower connection.
