Update git-alias.md: add brs to prevent incorrect line behavior (#1161)
* Update git-alias.md: add brs to prevent incorrect line behavior

currently these all appear on one line, in the rendered markdown viewer and also in the man page. That isn't what's wanted. What's wanted is for each to be on its own line, which this change implements, using the strategy I found in git-bulk.

Defining a new alias:

git-alias will show all aliases if no argument is given:

$ git alias
s = status
amend = commit --amend
rank = shortlog -sn --no-merges
whatis = show -s --pretty='tformat:%h (%s, %ad)' --date=short
whois = !sh -c 'git log -i -1 --pretty="format:%an <%ae>
