I tried to format git-checkout.1 and git-checkout.html from HEAD and
HEAD^ after applying this step, with asciidoc and asciidoctor, and
did not see any difference that came from this patch.  Am I correct
to understand that this patch is done purely for the benefit of
human readers, and not for formatting machinery?

It may be subjective for those who read the source if it is easier
to read with or without inter-paragraph spaces, but in any case, the
resulting source material now look the same way between two hunks,
and consistency is good.

Queued.  Thanks.
