One of the first things that new users have to understand is the
difference between Hugo as a web server and Hugo as a web site
generator. Issue #852 asked for documentation to make that clear.
This patch updates the overview page with that information. It will
seem repetitive to users that understand the difference. Weigh that
against the needs of those that don't.
Reference #852
Adds step-by-step instructions for installing from both brew and
the official tarball. Not sure if steps for installing from source
belong here, so left them out.
Fixes#1005
The `hugo help` output as shown in http://gohugo.io/overview/usage/
was not yet updated for v0.13. Thanks to @alebaffa for the heads up!
Also:
- Clarify that, after using `hugo server`, the bare `hugo` command
need to be run before deployment.
- Add a section on running `hugo` as production web server,
and add links to two blog posts of two Hugo users sharing
their experience.
Partially fixes: #852 and #937
See https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases
What a pleasant surprise indeed!
How come I have never noticed them before?
And even `.deb` files are provided! How amazing!
Quote from @spf13: "I also think it's the better default
and should continue to be the case going forward."
Also mention the use of `hugo config` to check the current value
of `canonifyurls`, thanks to suggestion by @bep.
Fixes#802
- Clarify that Hugo may be built wherever Go is available;
- Add links to Git, Mercurial and Go;
- Unlist Bazaar: No libraries that Hugo depends on use it any more;
- Suggest the user to simply run `make` to build `hugo`
to get `hugo version` to display the commit hash.
Some variables are currently not documented and others are explained
across the document. So, I tried to pull an overview from the source.
Pls double check. I am not 100% sure, what the purpose of some variables
is or whether they are only relevant for previous versions. Thanks
