From: Glen Choo <chooglen@xxxxxxxxxx> There are some inconsistencies with how different asciidoc environments handle different combinations of "\{<>}", e.g. these results were observed with asciidoc on two different environments: | Input | Output (env A) | Output (env B) | same/different | |-----------+----------------+------------------+----------------| | \{<foo>\} | {<foo>} | \{<foo>}^M | different | | {<foo>} | {<foo>} | {<foo>} | same | | \{<foo>} | {<foo>} | \{<foo>}^M | different | | \{foo\} | {foo} | {foo} | same | | \{\} | {} | \{}^M | different | | \{} | {} | {} | same | | {\} | {} | {} | same | The only instance of this biting us is "@\{<specifier>\}" in Documentation/git-reflog.txt; all other combinations of "\{<>}" (e.g. in Documentation/revisions.txt) seem to render consistently. Fix this inconsistent rendering by removing the unnecessary "\" in Documentation/git-reflog.txt. Signed-off-by: Glen Choo <chooglen@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/git-reflog: remove unneeded \ from { I noticed this inconsistency as I was trying to build Git docs with Google's internal build system. This string seems particularly problematic e.g. you can see unnecessary "\" on https://git-scm.com/docs/git-reflog#_description. I'm not proficient in asciidoc at all, but I suspect that this isn't tied to the asciidoc version; I initially observed these differences in environments with different versions of asciidoc (9.0.0 and 10.2.0) but I can't reproduce this at all on my Mac using different versions of asciidoc and asciidoctor from Homebrew. Perhaps the issue is in some underlying library?
