Subject: [PATCH 6/6] Doc: use two backticks for monospace, not backtick+apostrophe
Date: Thu, 13 May 2021 20:17:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f0af6c8f6aeb765a2670cc6c097059c591cdcedc.1620928059.git.martin.agren@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1620928059.git.martin.agren@gmail.com>

In a few places, we wrap the name of an --option or an ENV_VARIABLE in
backtick+apostrophe rather than backtick+backtick. Switch to using
two backticks, as per the coding guidelines.

As an added bonus to rendering these as monospace, we will have them
render the same with AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor. The `quoted' way ends up
as ‘quoted’ vs “quoted”.
