Description

The gitit system as installed includes a Front Page with a link to the "Gitit User's Guide". This link is coded as "[Gitit User's Guide]()" in the markdown, and it does not work: it takes you to a page-creation page, where the apostrophe in the title is displayed as a closing rounded single quote mark.

If you change the markdown code to "[Gitit User's Guide](Gitit User's Guide)", it all works fine, and the apostrophe in the page title is displayed as a straight single quote mark.

The former case should work correctly.
