I work on a team that uses Objective-C code in stash, so sometimes I want to use an @ symbol within my comment as part of a source code snippet:

[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%lld apple pies", [applePie count]]

So I escape it using Markdown backticks for an inline code section:

`[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%lld apple pies", [applePie count]]`

However, this gets interpreted as an @mention, and the quotes get removed from display. It renders like this:

[NSString stringWithFormat:@%lld apple pies, [applePie count]]

The workaround is to include the quotes twice in the input:

`[NSString stringWithFormat:@""%lld apple pies"", [applePie count]]`

is duplicated by
