title: Why doesn't GitHub preserve line breaks in AsciiDoc?
body: <p>I've stumbled upon an issue where GitHub refuses to preserve the line breaks in code blocks within AsciiDoc readme files or wiki pages. Googling the problem produced <a href="https://github.com/dagwieers/asciidoc-odf/issues/2" rel="nofollow">a bug on the GitHub tracker</a>, which marks the issue as resolved without a good explanation.</p>
  
  <p>What should I do to make GitHub preserve line breaks?</p>
