Previously, when a document had a leveloffset attribute this was included in the attributes used when loading a snippet in the operation block macro. This could lead to warnings about section titles being out of sequence as the level used for the title did not take the leveloffset into consideration. This commit clones the documents attributes and removes any leveloffset attribute before loading a snippet. This removes the need for the leveloffset to be considered when loading a snippet fragment. As before, the level of each block in the fragment loaded from snippet is then set prior to adding the block to the main document. This takes the leveloffset into consideration. Closes gh-649
Spring REST Docs 
Overview
The primary goal of this project is to make it easy to document RESTful services by combining content that's been hand-written using Asciidoctor with auto-generated examples produced with the Spring MVC Test framework. The result is intended to be an easy-to-read user guide, akin to GitHub's API documentation for example, rather than the fully automated, dense API documentation produced by tools like Swagger.
For a broader introduction see the Documenting RESTful APIs presentation. Both the slides and a video recording are available.
