When running with AsciiDoc, this makes the build fail with

        ASCIIDOC git-fetch.html
    asciidoc: ERROR: urls-remotes-upstreams.adoc: line 111: illegal style name: branch "main"
    gmake: *** [Makefile:356: git-fetch.html] Error 1

The line #111 is the one that has [branch "main"] on it.

Curiously, USE_ASCIIDOCTOR=YesPlease would not suffer from the
issue.
