Thanks for the report, but the git-scm website is managed on GitHub, not by this mailing list. So you might want to open an issue on:

https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues

Show 8 quoted lines

Thanks for the details. We are transitioning from ".txt" to ".adoc" for the extension of many of our documentation files and this is perhaps triggering this issue.
