doc: clarify gitcredentials path component matching
The gitcredentials documentation implied that the config file's "pattern" URL might include a path component, but did not explain that it must match exactly (potentially leaving readers with the false hope that it would support a more flexible prefix match).

the same domain. Likewise, a config entry for `http://example.com` would not

match: Git compares the protocols exactly.

If the "pattern" URL does include a path component, then this too must match
|
||||
exactly: the context `https://example.com/bar/baz.git` will match a config
|
||||
entry for `https://example.com/bar/baz.git` (in addition to matching the config
|
||||
entry for `https://example.com`) but will not match a config entry for
|

`https://example.com/bar`.
