问题
I want to convert the following *.md converted into proper LaTeX *.tex.
Lorem *ipsum* something.
Does anyone know lorem by heart?
That would *sad* because there's always Google.
Expected Behavior / Resulting LaTeX from Pandoc
Lorem \emph{ipsum} something.

Observed Behavior / Resulting LaTeX from Pandoc
Lorem \emph{ipsum} something. Does anyone know lorem by heart?
That would \emph{sad} because there's always Google.
Why do I care? 1. I'm transitioning a bigger git repo from markdown to LaTeX, and I want a clean diff and history. 2. I actually like my LaTeX with one sentence-per-line even though it does not matter for the typesetting.
How can I get Pandoc to do this?
Ps.: I am aware of the option hard_line_breaks, but that only adds \\ between the two first lines, and does not actually preserve my line breaks.

Update
Since pandoc 1.16, this is possible:
pandoc --wrap=preserve
Old answer
Since Pandoc converts the Markdown to an AST-like internal representation, your non-semantic linebreaks are lost. So what you're looking for is not possible without some custom scripting (like using --no-wrap and then processing the output by inserting a line-break wherever there is a dot followed by a space).
However, you can use the --columns NUMBER options to specify the number of characters on each line. So you won't have a sentence per line, but NUMBER of characters per line.

A much simpler solution would be to add two spaces after "...something.". This will add a manual line break (the method is mentioned in the Pandoc Manual).

I figured out another way to address this problem – which is to not change the original *.mds (under version control), but to simply read them in and to have them "pandoced" when building the PDF.
Here's how:
Some markdown.md in project root:
Happy one-sentence-per-line **markdown** stuff.
And another line – makes for clear git diffs!
And some latexify.tex in project root:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\immediate\write18{pandoc markdown.md -t latex -o tmp.tex}
\input{tmp.tex}
\end{document}
Works just dandy if you have some markdown components in a latex project, e.g. github READMEs or sth.
Requires no special package, but compilation with shell-escape enabled.
