EXAMPLES
--------
De-duplicate the discussion of "send-email" configuration, such that the "git-config(1)" manual page becomes the source of truth, and "git-send-email(1)" includes the relevant part. Most commands that suffered from such duplication had diverging text discussing the same variables, but in this case some config was also only discussed in one or the other. This is mostly a move-only change, the exception is a minor rewording of changing wording like "see above" to "see linkgit:git-config[1]", as well as a clarification about the big section of command-line option tweaking config being discussed in git-send-email(1)'s main docs.
