From @isidorn:

Highlighting (variable) words improves readability by making the text easier to scan.
It would be useful to implement this as a more global feature.

One idea here would be to align with <code> blocks like alexr00/testLocalBranch.

It seems that markdown backticks are already supported. We just need to style it nicely, document it, and use it in more places. :)

example:

new vscode.MarkdownString(
    vscode.l10n.t('There are no commits between the base `{0}` branch and the comparing `{1}` branch',
    this.baseBranchName, this.compareBranchName));

Yeah, we have default markdown styles that don't quite look like that—but I'd like them to.
