Subject: groff .ft command use in asciidoc

Hi,

The git manpages on my opensuse 11.3 (git 1.7.1-1.14)
frequently use the .ft command the opensuse groff does not 
render.

For example from the final output of "man git-commit":

           .ft C
           $ edit hello.c
           $ git rm goodbye.c
           $ git add hello.c
           $ git commit
           .ft

So the .ft commands are visible.  It's really a cosmetic issue 
only, but looks ugly and irritates me every time I 
look something up in the man pages.

I double checked against current git.git and the problem 
is still there, because .ft C is configured in 
Documentation/asciidoc.conf

Not sure what the best solution is. Stop using .ft
and change asciidocs configuration?
