"New sentences should be started on new lines.
This makes it easier to see the effect of patches,
which often operate at the level of individual sentences."
2) groff_diff(7) in package "groff":
"In GNU troff, as in UNIX troff, you should always follow a sentence
with either a newline or two spaces."
