I read both the above introductory paragraph and the Asciidoctor issue, but couldn't figure out what a "straight plus sign" is. Even if it were a typo of "stray plus sign" (which I am guessing but with very low confidence), I do not see it at

  https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git-config.html#:~:text=extensions.*,compatObjectFormat
which I think is rendered via Asciidoctor.
Could you rephrase to clarify?
Thanks.
