Documentation truncated when \f is present in the docstring about sphinx-click HOT 2 CLOSED

It seems like Click \b does not prevent rewrapping anymore with this solution. I tweaked it a little with :

import inspect

def _format_description(ctx):
    """Format the description for a given `click.Command`.
    We parse this as reStructuredText, allowing users to embed rich
    information in their help messages if they so choose.
    """
    # Gets the ctx.command.__doc__ instead of ctx.command.help to avoid truncation by click class
    help_string = inspect.cleandoc(ctx.command.__doc__) or ctx.command.short_help

    if help_string:
        yield from _format_help(help_string)

which seems to be working. I will test it some more before doing a pull request.

This is a duplicate of #56. Note that your proposed solution would only work if the user is defining their help strings using docstring as opposed to the Command.help argument. I think we'd be better off relying on pallets/click#2151 which was included in click 8.1.0 and means click now stores raw strings, allowing us to process this stuff manually.
