Description

Running `curmit` with [a gist](https://gist.githubusercontent.com/jacebrowning/9376324/raw/9bde1f15190ca39028438432da54bde32b331cfb/Makefile) strips all newlines.

TODO:
- [ ] Add an integration test that demonstrates this issue
- [ ] Look at an alternative HTML-to-text program?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the newline-stripping behavior with the linked gist while running curmit. Add an integration test demonstrating the failure, then investigate an alternative HTML-to-text program and consider the issue complete when gist content preserves its newlines.
