minirst: better interaction between comments and margins You can now split a list with a comment: * foo .. separator * bar and the two list items will no longer be run together, that is the output is * foo * bar instead of * foo * bar

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
