[PATCH 2/2] index: avoid formatting issue in git clone instructions

The bulleted list which includes instructions for cloning cgit are
intended to be formatted as:

    * clone the repo:
      * git clone https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit

with the git clone command being a nested list.  This does not work with
markdown-python and instead is rendered as two separate bullet points.

According to upstream¹:

    Python-Markdown consistently requires 4 spaces of indent per level
    or it ignores the indent

While we could adjust the indent level, it seems cleaner to simply
remove the nested list item for the git clone command and format it as
code.
