Why two continuation lines here? One seems to be enough on my version of asciidoc (though it would not be the first time we have encountered weird behaviors in our documentation toolchain). > + A special case of <n> equals to "\+" (without quotes) will print > + just a "+" sign instead of the whole suffix.

I found this first phrase a little hard to parse. What about just: An <n> of `+` will print... That uses the same wording as above, and I think using backticks is probably the right thing. It will appear in a monospaced font, which avoids the need to explain the quotes (and you also do not need to backslash-escape inside it). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
