Merge branch 'ja/doc-synopsis-style-even-more' into next

A handful of documentation pages have been modernized to use the
"synopsis" style.

* ja/doc-synopsis-style-even-more:
  doc: convert git-show to synopsis style
  doc: fix some style issues in git-clone and for-each-ref-options

This option is only valid for add, deinit and update commands.
