Markdown supports automatic links by surrounding URLs with angle brackets, as documented in <https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#autolink> While we're at it, update URLs to avoid redirecting clients for git-scm.com (by using HTTPS) and public-inbox.org (by adding a trailing slash). Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <e@xxxxxxxxx> --- I was going to cite some style manuals (MLA, APA, etc), but it seems current versions do not favor angle brackets. However, this remains consistent with the recommendations in RFC 2369 <https://ietf.org/rfc/rfc2369.txt> for mail headers.
