A GitHub bug I recently noticed that seems related:
Expected: When a repo's readme is named `README` (without the `.md` suffix), it is rendered as plain text. When a repo's readme is named `README.md`, it is rendered as Markdown.
Actual: When a repo's readme is named `README` (without the `.md` suffix), the presence of `$` causes parts of the file to be rendered as math. For a real-life example, see the readme in https://github.com/idianal/personal-site https://github.com/idianal/personal-site.
Can someone please point me where I can submit a bug report/issue for this?

- tmm 4y agoThere's a second bug related to this. If you click on any file in your repo, then click the browser's back button, instead of parts of your README rendered as math, you get a red box with 'Unable to render expression'. Neat.
