This patch I am not sure about.  On one hand it improves consistency
(and makes information more complete), on the other hand it removes
information at hand and instead refers to other manpage.

Perhaps a better solution would be to craft a short description that
is both sufficiently complete, and refers to "core.quotePath" for
more details, and then transclude it with "include::quotepath.txt[]".
