PLEASE STOP.

git-anything.xml files are _not_ the source files we edit, so
patches to them are not useful for us.

I suspect that a tilde inside literal `` environment is mishandled
in your versions of the documentation toolchain.  Either you would
need to upgrade some tool in the toolchain, or we would need patches
to the source that would look like:

        -such as `master~1` cannot be packaged,...
        +such as `master{tilde}1` cannot be packaged,...

to work around this problem if the version of the problematic tool
you are using is widespread.
