From aa07cac43fb03a01bcbcdffdaa49bf72a9eb06d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2015 04:05:10 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] strbuf.h: drop asciidoc list formatting from API docs Using a hanging indent is much more readable. This means we won't format as asciidoc anymore, but since we don't have a working system for extracting these comments anyway, it's probably more important to just make the source readable.
