I first encountered on GitHub the "suggestion" code block, identified by
```suggestion
change
```
This offers to replace the line immediately before with what is inside the fence. But what about if I want to replace multiple lines?
I'd like to think this is possible, but I cannot find documentation of this feature anywhere. I have at least learned that the key terms to use are fenced code block and info string but the best I can come up with is that the info string (other than the first token) is unspecified.
Is this capability documented anywhere? It is emminently useful in code reviews.
So far, it appears to be a GitHub-unique feature. That may be the answer, but telling me how to use the GitHub GUI is not addressing the question.
