Hi, this still is a problem, at least on Debian/unstable; with asciidoc
8.2.1, the git-push(1) and git-fetch(1) man pages have this 'broken'
refspec description[0].

Additionally there're problems with callouts, whereever <n> is used to
refer to a callout list, it renders broken man pages[1], e.g.:

 $ man git-reset
 [...]
 EXAMPLES
        Undo a commit and redo
 
                $ git commit ...
                $ git reset --soft HEAD^      \fB(1)\fR
                $ edit                        \fB(2)\fR
                $ git commit -a -c ORIG_HEAD  \fB(3)\fR
            .sp \fB1. \fRThis is most often done when you remembered what you
            just committed is incomplete, or you misspelled your commit
            message, or both. Leaves working tree as it was before "reset".
 
            .br \fB2. \fRmake corrections to working tree files.
 
            .br \fB3. \fR"reset" copies the old head to .git/ORIG_HEAD; redo
            the commit by starting with its log message. If you do not need to
            edit the message further, you can give -C option instead.
 
            See also the --amend option to git-commit(1).
 
            .br
 
        Undo commits permanently
 
                $ git commit ...
                $ git reset --hard HEAD~3   \fB(1)\fR
            .sp \fB1. \fRThe last three commits (HEAD, HEAD^, and HEAD~2) were
            bad and you do not want to ever see them again. Do not do this if
            you have already given these commits to somebody else.
 
            .br
 
        Undo a commit, making it a topic branch
