Markdown example in REPO.md is a bit misleading #402

Closed huitema closed 12 months ago

huitema commented 12 months ago

The text in REPO.md says:

A complete draft isn't necessary at this point... Markdown is similar:

docname: draft-ietf-unicorn-protocol-latest
title: The Unicorn Protocol

But doing that in fact causes an error in setup.mk, with a diagnostic stating Unable to detect '%%%' or '---' in markdown file.

Might be useful to add something like:

Markdown is similar:

---
docname: draft-ietf-unicorn-protocol-latest
title: The Unicorn Protocol
---

(If using mmark, replace --- by %%%.)
