title: How to add image to readme file in Stash
body: <p>I am using Stash (which has Git) for my project</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to add some images to my Readme.md file as</p>
  
  <pre><code>[picture](http://stash.xxxxxx.com/projects/zzzzz/img/abc.png)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but its not working. when i view the readme, all i see is the plain text</p>

  <p>Final EDIT:</p>
