I think some of these were intentionally left in the original mass dashes to spaces conversion. The intent was that one could use the git-show form in talking about the command in text.
However, I think I actually prefer the version given by your patch. I just wanted to point out that this is a decision to change how we mention these in the documentation and not simply a fix for things that got missed in the conversion. Others may disagree on how it looks.
It seems like you added monospace backticks in most locations. Is there a reason not to standardize on that and use `git show` here?

I think this one should probably be `git fetch`.
