Subject: doc: git-log: convert diff options to new doc format
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.
- In description lists, put each option on its own line, to make them more
searchable and enable automatic translation of the options.

 The output emitted when this option is used is subject to change, and
 so is its interaction with other options (unless explicitly
 documented).
