      Summary

      The code macro for xml does not properly highlight commented out lines if the comment contains an xml tag. The syntax highlighting is looking for > instead of --> to end the comment highlight.

      Environment

      Cloud

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a comment or issue body with the bellow macro content:
        {code:xml}
        <xml1>some stuff</xml1>
        <!--comment with no tags-->
        <!--<xml1>comment with tags</xml1>
        {code}
        

      Expected Results

      The commented line highlighting should extend all the way up to and including the -->

      Actual Results

      The comment highlighting ends incorrectly with the first > in the line

      Notes

      What ever logic being used for comment highlighting seems to be looking only for > to signal the end of the commented line instead of -->

      Workaround

      None
