title: How to preserve line breaks when generating python docs using sphinx
body: <p>I am using Sphinx for generating docs for a python project.
  The output html is not preserving the line breaks which are present in the docstring.
  Example:</p>
  
  <p>Code</p>
  
  <pre><code>def testMethod(arg1,arg2):
      """
      This is a test method
  
      Arguments:
      arg1: arg1 description
      arg2: arg2 description
  
      Returns:
      None
      """
      print "I am a test method"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sphinx O/P:</p>
  
  <pre><code>TestModule.testMethod(arg1, arg2)
  
  This is a test method
  
  Arguments: arg1: arg1 description arg2: arg2 description
  
  Returns: None
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any idea how to fix it ?</p>
