使用Nokogiri时，如何抑制自动关闭标签的插入?

我的XML文档是Jenkins作业的配置文件，其中包含许多空标签，例如:

My XML doc, which is the config file for a Jenkins job, has a lot of empty tags like:

<string></string>

Nokogiri替换为:

which Nokogiri replaces with:

<string/>

尽管这是编写XML的推荐"方法，但最终会导致对XML产生不必要的更改，从而使得难以读取有意义的内容更改.有没有办法抑制这种行为?

While this is the "recommended" way to write XML, it ends up generating unnecessary changes to the XML that make it difficult to read the meaningful content changes. Is there a way to suppress this behavior?
