Documentation/git-am: Document supported --patch-format options
The --patch-format option has been supported for a while but it is not mentioned in the man page and the short help cannot tell the user what the supported formats are. Add the option to the man page along with the supported options. Signed-off-by: Chris Packham <judge.packham@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
