Please use semantic newlines.

See man-pages(7):
   Use semantic newlines
       In the source of a manual page, new sentences  should  be
       started on new lines, long sentences should be split into
       lines  at  clause breaks (commas, semicolons, colons, and
       so on), and long clauses should be split at phrase bound‐
       aries.  This convention,  sometimes  known  as  "semantic
       newlines",  makes it easier to see the effect of patches,
       which often operate at the level of individual sentences,
       clauses, or phrases.

I tried to do this in v4.  It seems very arbitrary, though, so if you want
further changes to the newlines I recommend just making them when committing the
patch.

Note that a better way to review changes to text is to do a word diff instead of
a line diff.
