When an issue comment contains a literal text block, line breaks are not preserved in the HTML display. See https://pagure.io/python-daemon/issue/3 for an example.
Declaring a block of text to be pre-formatted should display all the spacing from the original, including line breaks.
How do you declare the text?
It works for me when indenting by four spaces
or when delimiting the block by triple backtick
like this ``` foo ```
I have to assume that information is available by inspecting the issue I cited above.
Huh, I don't think I can do that without access to database or being able to edit the issue. It looks like it's using a single backtick to mark the code section, but pretty much no markdown processor preserves line breaks with that markup, at least according to babelmark.
I tend to agree with @lsedlar which makes me consider this ticket as invalid, single quote are meant to be used inline not to format paragraphs.
With no answer, I'm going to close this ticket as invalid.
Feel free to re-open or comment further if you disagree.
Thanks for your report though :)
