[PATCH v2] Documentation: don't link to example mail addresses

2012-12-16 Thread John Keeping
Email addresses in documentation are converted into mailto: hyperlinks in the HTML output and footnotes in man pages. This isn't desirable for cases where the address is used as an example and is not valid. Particularly annoying is the example "jane@laptop.(none)" which appears in git-shortlog(1)
