Not, probably not worth a reroll: it would have been nice to point out that this is in git-config(1). E.g. something like this:

    doc: fix conjoined maintenance strategies in git-config(1)

    git-config(1).

Ah, indeed. I can confirm that this is misrendered when looking at git-config(1), and with your patch it indeed renders correctly. Thanks for this simple and obvious fix!
