I still think this apostrophe is unnecessary.  I removed it if you don't
mind.  ;-)

-     "This library allows the user to set Emacs' @code{exec-path} and
+     "This library allows the user to set Emacs @code{exec-path} and

[…]


In addition, according to Bash documentation [1] variables don't have
‘$’ in their description.

-    (synopsis "Get environment variables such as $PATH from the shell")
+    (synopsis "Get environment variables such as @var{PATH} from the shell")

- [1]  https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Bash-Variables.html


And in the description, we could use ‘@var’ instead of ‘@code’:

-This library allows the user to set Emacs @code{exec-path} and
+This library allows the user to set Emacs @var{exec-path} and

-@code{$PATH} from the shell path, so that @code{shell-command},
+@var{PATH} from the shell @var{PATH}, so that @code{shell-command},


Also don't forget a dot at end the in commit message.

    gnu: Add emacs-exec-path-from-shell.


Pushed with changes above as 22d628148ce857b620f5b8e48dc7cabe004313c5

I'll close the bug report.

Thanks,
Oleg.
