I think some of these were intentionally left in the original mass
dashes to spaces conversion. The intent was that one could use the
git-show form in talking about the command in text.

However, I think I actually prefer the version given by your patch. I
just wanted to point out that this is a decision to change how we
mention these in the documentation and not simply a fix for things that
got missed in the conversion. Others may disagree on how it looks.

It seems like you added monospace backticks in most locations. Is there
a reason not to standardize on that and use `git show` here?


I think this one should probably be `git fetch`.
