[PATCH] Fix multi-paragraph list items in OPTIONS section

Jonas Fonseca· Mar 19, 2006, 23:39 UTC · lore

Asciidoc cannot handle multi-paragraph description list items without the need for adding special control characters and reindenting all paragraphs but the first. Workaround it in make-cg-asciidoc so that the documentation in the script headers can use the more intuitive and readable formatting.

Affected files are cg-patch and cg-commit.
