Hi Jack,

Asciidoc outputs the spaces in the HTML (your first example gives
<code>&lt;&lt;&lt;</code> <code>===</code> <code>&gt;&gt;&gt;</code>.)
but unfortunately HTML rendering ignores spaces *between* markup.

You have to quote the whole sequence including spaces, eg `<<< ===
>>>` giving <code>&lt;&lt;&lt; === &gt;&gt;&gt;</code> which renders
correctly, or add some non-blanks between the quoted text, eg Without
`-f` the `git branch` refuses ...

Cheers
Lex
