Fronde v0.4.0

This new release[1] brings a lot of stability improvements and inner refactoring. Even if the visible changes list might look a bit poor, this release is a big step forward and will help a lot to develop new features in the future. Some parts of the software were poorly designed and I worked hard to improve the coding.

I gave a code of conduct[2] to the project to ease any newcomer to feel at home when participating in it. I invented nothing and adopted the contributor covenant code of conduct[3].

After the update, you will need to update your installations and force a full publication of your websites (because the way templates are inserted inside published files changed). Actually, this will become the new standard routine after any fronde upgrade.

fronde update
fronde build -f

Here is the list of the most visible changes:

Improve Gemini support
Translate all console messages
Introduce a new onboarding command (`new' instead of `init') to follow other static website generator habbits
Rework tags and Atom feeds publication
Output full article body in Atom feeds
Announce each Atom feed in its related tag page
Move tag pages and Atom feeds /inside/ the related blog source. They are not shared anymore but specific to their source.

As tags and feeds are now published under their related source public path and no more directly at the root of the publication folder, you might want to setup some redirections in your web server configuration.

For the following example configuration:

---
sources:
- path: src/news
  is_blog: true

Feeds and tags will now be published under `public_html/news/feeds/' and `public_html/news/tags/' instead of `public_html/feeds/' and `public_html/tags/'. Thus you might want to setup some redirections like the following for nginx:

location ~ ^/tags/(?<slug>.*)$ {
    return 301 /news/tags/$slug;
}
location ~ ^/feeds/(?<slug>.*)$ {
    return 301 /news/feeds/$slug;
}

All changes are visible in the git log[4].
