From 8e9fe16c878d15f7a007dbe943e4480787381913 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emily Shaffer Date: Wed, 1 May 2019 13:32:17 -0700 Subject: gitsubmodules: align html and nroff lists There appears to be a bug in the toolchain generating manpages from lettered lists. When a list is enumerated with letters, the resulting nroff shows numbers instead. Mostly this is harmless, but in the case of gitsubmodules, the paragraph following the list refers back to each bullet by letter. As a result, reading this documentation via `man gitsubmodules` is hard to parse - readers must infer that a bug exists and a refers to 1, b refers to 2, and c refers to 3 in the list above. The problem specifically was introduced in ad47194; previously rather than generating numerated lists the bulleted area was entirely monospaced in HTML and shown in plaintext in nroff. The bug seems to exist in docbook-xml - I've reported it on May 1 via the docbook-apps mail list - but for now it may make more sense to just work around the issue.
