It looks like you accidentally deleted the nice subject line

    docs: remove stray bracket from git-clone synopsis

When rewriting the commit message with Junio’s suggestion. Which made what was supposed to be the first line of the first paragraph into the subject line.

I think you want this:

    docs: remove stray bracket from git-clone synopsis

    Remove the extra and incorrect closing bracket, so that the line
    reads:

        [--filter=<filter> [--also-filter-submodules]]

    instead of

        [--filter=<filter>] [--also-filter-submodules]]
