Yes, this is awkward. Here comes the next candidate for quoting.
In pull-fetch-param.txt:
----8<----
<refspec>::
The canonical format of a <refspec> parameter is
`+?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed
by the source ref, followed by a colon `:`, followed by
the destination ref.
+
The remote ref that matches <src>
is fetched, and if <dst> is not empty string, the local
ref that matches it is fast forwarded using <src>.
Again, if the optional plus `+` is used, the local ref
---->8----
"man git-fetch" and "man git-pull" show:
----8<----
<refspec>
The canonical format of a <refspec> parameter is ?<src>:<dst>;
that is, an optional plus, followed by the source ref, followed
by a colon :, followed by the destination ref.
The remote ref that matches <src> is fetched, and if <dst> is
not empty string, the local ref that matches it is fast for-
warded using <src>. Again, if the optional plus + is used, the

I.e. the first and second + were swallowed, but not the third one.
This is the fix for asciidoc 8.0.0:
`$$+$$?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed
Here is another fix that works with asciidoc 8.0.0:

Results in

Does the backslash notation work with asciidoc 7?
