[PATCH 5/8] doc/add: reformat `--edit` option

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
May 13, 2015, 04:58 UTC

All of the other options in the list put short and long as two separate headings.

We can also drop the backslashing of `--`. It isn't used elsewhere and is unnecessary for modern asciidoc (plus it confuses asciidoctor).
