We had one Github issue where we had a series of numbers in a comment (
https://github.com/Xastir/Xastir/issues/66#issuecomment-486514563 ) like:
#1 blah
#2 blah blah
#3 blah blah blah
Those numbers got auto-linked to other things in Github because of the
hash/number format used. I fixed it with a backslash before plus a space
after the hash mark to get them to unlink. I edited the comment on Github
to do this fix.
Several methods of escaping such sequences are listed here:
