Ok, here's the updated text. I am not set up to build the documentation,
so I hope someone will test, but looks right to me.

--cleanup=<mode>::
- This option sets how the commit message is cleaned up.
- The '<mode>' can be one of 'verbatim', 'whitespace', 'strip',
- and 'default'. The 'default' mode will strip leading and
- trailing empty lines and #commentary from the commit message
- only if the message is to be edited. Otherwise only whitespace
- removed. The 'verbatim' mode does not change message at all,
- 'whitespace' removes just leading/trailing whitespace lines
- and 'strip' removes both whitespace and commentary. The default
- can be changed by the 'commit.cleanup' configuration variable
- (see linkgit:git-config[1]).
+ This option determines how the supplied commit message should be
+ cleaned up before committing. The '<mode>' can be `strip`,
+ `whitespace`, `verbatim`, or `default`.

+strip::
+ Strip leading and trailing empty lines, trailing whitespace, and

+whitespace::
+ Same as `strip` except #commentary is not removed.
+verbatim::
+ Do not change the message at all.
+default::
+ `strip` if the message is to be edited. Otherwise `whitespace`.
