How to suppress blank line in Jekyll?

Question

I use GitHub Pages for my blog, and am running into a problem with Jekyll. My post.html has a block like this: ``` {% for testpost in site.posts %} {% four %} {% lines of %} {% processing %} {% goes here %} {% endfor %} ``` The part in the middle doesn't matter. The important part is the end of the line which is outside of the `{% %}` markup, and is therefore rendered into the html. Since this is in a loop, it's putting about 1000 blank lines into the middle of by HTML page. It doesn't affect the display, but it make a View/Source troublesome. Any ideas on how to avoid those extra blank lines?

Accepted Answer

Since `Liquid v4` (included in `Jekyll` from `v3.5`) there is a `Whitespace control`, which finally resolved case with blank line, white space, etc.
