Ah, thank you. That fixed it.

In case someone is interested there is still a minor flaw that an
example command and the following paragraph is printed with no empty
line between them. Like in the beginning of "git help tutorial", for
example:

    First, note that you can get documentation for a command such as git
    log --graph with:

        $ man git-log             
    It is a good idea to introduce yourself to git [...]

It would be nicer if there was empty line after "$ man git-log". I can't
remember if this is new issue or not. This applies only to man pages; in
html pages there are nice boxes around example commands and equal
spacing before and after them.
