    Description

      we get odd looking bugs sometimes as proper quotes get corrupted in an issue name or description. eg. what starts out as:

      Change the word ‘state’ to ‘county’.

      [the inverted commas are proper ones]
      becomes

      Change the word ‘state’ to ‘county’.

      this happens because the text is copied out of Word which has its smartypants apostrophes turning regular typewriter quotes into typographically correct ones.

      – Jed Wesley-Smith
