Markdown renders a link even with space(s) between brackets and parentheses
Summary
When reviewing a past comment of mine, I noticed the sentence didn't make sense because it read “…”
instead of “[…] (X left)”
. I had placed an ellipsis […]
inside the quotation marks because quoted material is missing at the beginning.
I edited the comment and the “[…] (X left)”
was still there, but it is being rendered as a link, even though there is a space
between the right bracket ]
and the left parentheses (
.
Steps to reproduce
In a markdown editable area (wiki, file, issue, merge request, comment, etc.) enter […] followed by Space and then (X left)
Basically enter the expected formatting for a markdown link, but with a space between the brackets and the parentheses.
Expected behavior
[…] (X left)
should render:
This was the behavior when I entered my comment.
Actual behavior
Currently […] (X left)
renders as a link:
