That is correct.
However, the problem is that github encourages the use of markdown
syntax for example to emphasize source-code (well and other structures I
do not care about much).

The point is that if I add markdown syntax in my email replies, the
github software deletes that syntax, the reason is not clear to me,
maybe to fight spam.  

This is why I asked for a package that would allow to answer issues, but
which would not filter out markdown syntax.

So there was an emacs package called, well github-issues, from 2016 but
I did not manage to get it to work.
