This is the first use of the single line ifdef/ifndef in our
Documentation.  I assume you have verified the rendered output on
both AsciiDoc and AsciiDoctor?

Ditto.

This is unrelated to the "unify description in git-foo.txt and
config/foo.txt in the documentation" topic, isn't it?

I haven't formed an opinion on the updated text, and it makes it
harder to review when the content change is mixed in the "unify
description in two places" topic, so I won't comment on the change
of the contents.  Please split them into two steps (a step with only
content change, and then another step to remove the duplicated one
by making one include the other).  Same comment applies to [2/3].

Ditto.

We are losing the mention of "notes.rewrite.<command>", which is
outside the "unify" topic, isn't it?

Ditto.

Thanks.
