Sorry, I should have caught this much earlier, as already knew about this issue when I did gitattributes(5).

As it seems to be customary not to even say 'dot' at the beginning for man(5) section (existing examples I found are netrc, postgresrc, procmailrc, ...), I think the best fix is just to do s/\.gitmodules/gitmodules/ there.
