Github plugin problem
« on March 5th, 2014, 04:36 PM »
Its really a small problem, maybe im doing something wrong (like always :whistle:), but every new line of text adds a new item to the list.
The last 2 lines are just 1 phrase but they show up like 2

The plugin detects line-breaks and separates lines into list items.
Does your git software automatically add line-breaks, or something..?

I just write into it without creating a new line, im using the GUI version of github not the shell itself.

It's more of a git/github software problem, rather than a plugin problem... Technically, it's very likely that their software automatically adds linebreaks after 80 characters or so, to account for git GUIs that don't automatically wrap lines when showing a git commit message.

Only solutions would be to either switch to TortoiseGit for committing (it's way better than GitHub for Windows, although it has a steeper learning curve), or prevent the plugin from adding 'regular' bullets on new lines without a prefix (*, !, -, +...)
