This change is fine with me.

For the record, I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. Since this code is related to Asciidoctor and Git has no existing Ruby style standards, I picked the Asciidoctor house style, which uses multi-line %(). We could pick [0] as an option, or just argue it out when someone cares, like here.
