MD009 - Trailing spaces
Tags: whitespace
Aliases: no-trailing-spaces
Parameters: br_spaces (number; default: 0)
This rule is triggered on any lines that end with whitespace. To fix this, find the line that is triggered and remove any trailing spaces from the end.
The brspaces parameter allows an exception to this rule for a specific amount of trailing spaces used to insert an explicit line break/br element. For example, set brspaces to 2 to allow exactly 2 spaces at the end of a line.
Note: you have to set brspaces to 2 or higher for this exception to take effect - you can't insert a br element with just a single trailing space, so if you set brspaces to 1, the exception will be disabled, just as if it was set to the default of 0.

To fix this, delete the offending lines:

Note: this rule will not be triggered if there are multiple consecutive blank lines inside code blocks.

MD022 - Headers should be surrounded by blank lines
Tags: headers, blank_lines
Aliases: blanks-around-headers
This rule is triggered when headers (any style) are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
To fix this, ensure that all headers have a blank line both before and after (except where the header is at the beginning or end of the document):
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse headers that don't have a blank line before, and will parse them as regular text.

MD024 - Multiple headers with the same content
Tags: headers
Aliases: no-duplicate-header
Parameters: allowdifferentnesting (boolean; default false)
This rule is triggered if there are multiple headers in the document that have the same text:
# Some text
## Some text
To fix this, ensure that the content of each header is different:
# Some text
## Some more text
Rationale: Some markdown parses generate anchors for headers based on the header name, and having headers with the same content can cause problems with this.
If the parameter allow_different_nesting
is set to true
, header duplication
under different nesting is allowed, like it usually happens in change logs:
