The nearby fix (the apostrophe) in the other commit was what had me
looking at this file in the first place. But my editor (Neovim)
made the mid-line tab visually obvious, so I figured may as well clean
it up along the way; on my screen it looked something like this:

    ▷┅┅┅signature is requested. On successful exit a valid ssh public key is
    ▷┅┅┅expected in the▷┅┅┅first line of its output. To automatically use the first
    ▷┅┅┅available key from your ssh-agent set this to "ssh-add -L".

Vim's "listchars" setting is responsible for making tabs visible like that:

    :set listchars=extends:»,nbsp:⦸,precedes:«,tab:▷⋯,trail:•
