prettier: [Markdown] Parsing 2 ULs after each other is broken
As provided by @alexandrtovmach in https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/pull/18942#issuecomment-549761497, having two ULs after each other, the second one isn’t parsed correctly (using - instead of *).
When putting some text in between, it works as expected.
Prettier 1.18.2 Playground link
--parser markdown
Input:
## Two ULs after each other
- List
- List
- List
* List
* List
* List
## Two ULs after each other with some text in between
- List
- List
- List
test
* List

Output:
## Two ULs after each other
- List
- List
- List
* List
* List
* List
## Two ULs after each other with some text in between
- List

test

Expected behavior:
## Two ULs after each other
- List

## Two ULs after each other with some text in between

I think the current output is correct. According to the spec, changing bullet marker creates a new list. So if Prettier was to change both lists to the same marker, the two lists would suddenly be merged into one list. https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#example-271
I think this should be relooked at if it’s an intentional thing.
For me it’s weird too that having lists with multiple list styles and/or 2 lists after each other with a blank line in between them won’t parse these lists to all be
-.Thanks for issue
All list sings are replaced by
-.*is replaced by-+is replaced by-But when having a combined list (using 2 or more signs from
-,*or+), this breaks.
