From: Eric Wong Date: Wed, 01 Mar 2017 22:22:04 GMT Subject: [PATCH] README: create HTTP/HTTPS links from URLs in Markdown Message-ID: <20170301222204.GA5413@whir> Markdown supports automatic links by surrounding URLs with angle brackets, as documented in 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 --- 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 for mail headers.
