How to add line break in rdoc

Question

I have a code and comments for RDoc like this:

# first line comment
# second line comment
def foo
end

When I output document by rdoc foo.rb, then line break are ignored in HTML file.

To add line break I can write like:

# first line comment<br>
# second line comment

or

# first line comment
#
# second line comment

but I feel both way are not simple enough.

Is there other simple way to add line break in RDoc?

Just add two or more spaces to the end of the line and it will work.

#first comment  
#second comment
def foo
end

The first line has 2 spaces after comment.

At least this works on github.
