I think this was because the end-of-line backslash "\" in the ASCII art diagram in the Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt.

I think it should be an interesting feature for asciidoc to have long \ lines broken in text version, if only would be a way to disable it.

Tried someone to escape that backslash with another backslash before (as in "\\")?
