Indented blocks are not visibly different from non indented blocks #105

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

In the Windows Build Instructions for Chromium, rendered by gitiles here:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instr
uctions.md

the blocks that start with "Install Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 or later" and 
"Install Visual Studio 2013 Community" do not show up visually differently from 
the surrounding text.

This means that the readability of the build instructions has dropped 
significantly since crrev.com/1822123002 moved them to markdown. If the 
markdown is pasted into http://dillinger.io then the indenting is quite obvious.

Dirk Pranke pointed out that:

Both blocks are being rendered in <blockquote>, but the styling (CSS) is quite
different.

It looks like Gitiles probably did a refresh at some point and is apply resets
now but not then re-styling blockquotes, so you're losing the default styling 
on the
blockquote.

Which is probably a bug that should be filed against Gitiles.

So here's a bug.

There are other parts of the instructions that do not look as good in gitiles 
as in http://dillinger.io/ but the indented sections are the most obvious.
