Many folks ask for help (via IRC or filing GitHub issues) without
sufficient detail and/or without first determining if the answers to
their questions might be better sourced elsewhere. These
documentation changes encourage users to follow certain guidelines
when reaching out for help.
"U" mode is redundant in py3 since "newline" argument replaces it and by default
universal newlines is enabled. As of py3.4, "U" mode triggers a deprecation warning.
On OSX, if LC_TIME and LC_CTYPE differs the output of strftime is not properly decoded
in Python 3. This makes sure that the 'utils.DateFormatter' and the related Jinja filter
'strftime' set the same value for LC_TIME and LC_CTYPE while formatting.
Also, '%a' is removed from DEFAULT_DATE_FORMAT in 'custom_locale' tests. OSX and *nix have
different conversions for '%a' ('Jeu' vs 'jeu.') and there is not a feasible way to handle
the difference for tests.

If one used a locale that made use of unicode characters (like fr_FR.UTF-8)
the files on disk would be in correct locale while links would be to C.
Uses a SafeDatetime class that works with unicode format strigns
by using custom strftime to prevent ascii decoding errors with Python2.
Also added unicode decoding for the calendar module to fix period
archives.
The reader would return a list of authors already, but
METADATA_PROCESSORS['authors'] expects a string.
Added a test case for this (only the HTMLReader had it).
Instead of one path a list can be given. This is due to popular request.
Should help people not wanting to use Pelican for blogging.
Maintain backward compatibility though.
Thanks to @ingwinlu for pointing out the change in StaticGenerator.
The "Getting Started" docs became overly long and unwieldy over time.
This splits it into separate sections, including:
* Quickstart
* Installation
* Writing content
* Publish your site
The Content.__eq__ method would indirectly call _update_content too
soon, resulting in failed intrasite links substitution
This effectively reverts fd77926700
for pelican/contents.py, it was unnecessary anyways.
Thanks to Strom for finding this.
CACHE_PATH can now be relative to settings file like OUTPUT_PATH.
Also add --cache-path commandline option.
Change cache loading warning to a less scary and more helpful message.
For some reason, setting names on the Settings page have long been
wrapped in single back-ticks (usually meant for linking in reST) instead
of double back-ticks (meant for denoting code). This seems to be
widespread throughout the docs, and it's not clear if this is
intentional or simply a reST formatting error that got propagated by
others in order to stay consistent. This commit applies double
back-ticks in any case where something resembling code is shown, with
the idea that single back-ticks should only be used when linking.
More importantly, the settings denoted their default values in
parentheses, which hapless users often included when copying and pasting
these values into their config files. As one can imagine, confusion —
not hilarity — ensued. Setting defaults are now shown as they would
actually appear in one's settings file, with an equal sign and without
parentheses.
During this spelunking expedition, many other minor improvements were
concurrently conducted.
