Added support for installing Hugo's *.pkg installers on macOS. Hugo has changed the installer from a tarball (containing the hugo binary) to .pkg since v0.153.0. Please note that installing .pkg requires password input, so this cannot be automated on macOS that requires password for sudo commands.

hugo_installers() can deal with Hugo installers containing the withdeploy feature for Hugo >= v0.137.0 now.

Due to the complexity, HugoBlox themes are no longer tested against blogdown, hence are not guaranteed to work with blogdown any more.

When converting metadata to YAML (e.g., in new_site(to_yaml = TRUE)), logical values are converted to true/false instead of yes/no now. This is because Hugo v0.152.0 no longer supports yes/no as logical values.

Use the --renderToMemory flag by default for Hugo >= 0.123.0 when starting hugo server (thanks, @drmowinckels, #772). If you do not wish to use this flag by default, please see https://bookdown.org/yihui/blogdown/livereload.html on how to configure your own default flags for hugo server.

Throw a clearer error when using the RStudio addin "Update Metadata" in the visual editor (thanks, @setgree, #769).

Redirect the wowchemy themes to HugoBlox.

No longer use xfun::attr() (which will be removed from xfun).

new_site() no longer uses the command-line flag -f for hugo new site, because the -f flag has a different meaning since Hugo v0.112.4 (thanks, @residualsun1 https://d.cosx.org/d/424434, gohugoio/hugo#11015).

Supports hugo.toml/hugo.yaml as the new config file for Hugo >= 0.110.0 (thanks, @mengjiezhang4ds, #753).

The RStudio addin "Quote Poem" adds > to every line instead of only the beginning of every paragraph now.

The "New Post" addin will verify if Hugo has been installed before launching (thanks, @LukasWallrich, #750).

Added the command-line option --preserve-tabs to the pandoc_args argument of blogdown::html_page(), so that tabs are preserved by default in code blocks (thanks, @amarakon, #740).

Fixed a bug that caused config.toml.bak.toml to be recognized as the config file mistakenly, which led to an obscure error (thanks, @CerebralMastication, #742).

This package requires R >= 3.5.0 now.

For R Markdown posts, the default rendering method has been changed from html to markdown. If options('blogdown.method') is not set, it will be set to 'markdown'. This option will also be set in .Rprofile for newly created sites via blogdown::new_site(). Users who have already set this blogdown.method option will not be affected. The motivation for this change is that markdown output often works better with Hugo themes and is less surprising, even though the html method allows for richer Markdown features because of Pandoc (thanks, @SebPouliot #737, @austinwpearce #591).

When rendering Rmd posts that involve time-consuming and intensive computing while serving the site, the hugo process can die (for unknown reasons). Now the hugo process will be suspended before rendering Rmd posts, and resumed after the rendering is done. Hopefully this will keep the server process alive (thanks, @XiangyunHuang, https://d.cosx.org/d/423509).
