Jekyll is adding an extra <br> element after line breaks in my .md file, within blocks intended to be paragraphs. I notice this seems to happen mostly when I break the line after a period (.) . Line breaks anywhere else don't have this issue.

Any idea why this is happening? I haven't had this problem with other kinds of markdown before. For example, StackOverflow doesn't behave that way.

My _config.yml is using markdown: redcarpet and does not have any other markdown-related config so I don't think this applies (Jekyll converting every newline as line break). Also, the redcarpet docs say that hard_wrap is default false.
