The 'linkgit' Asciidoc macro is misspelled as 'linkit' in the description of 'GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR' since the addition of that variable to git(1) in 902a126eca (doc: mention GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR and 'sequence.editor' more, 2020-08-31).

Fix that.

[PATCH v2] git.txt: fix typos in 'linkgit' macro invocation

From: Philippe Blain <levraiphilippeblain@gmail.com>

    Changes since v1:
    
     * also fixed the fact that I had used two colons instead of one.

It seems that 2.29 shipped with these typos without anybody noticing.

How did you find them, by the way? Anything we can do to prevent similar mistakes with automation?

Will queue.  Thanks.
