This patch enables "soft" scoping rules (see e.g.
https://github.com/JuliaLang/SoftGlobalScope.jl) for code execution
(markdown and notebook output). This is enabled by default for Jupyter
notebook output (to mimic how the IJulia kernel works), and disabled
otherwise. Soft scope rules can be enabled/disabled with the `softscope
:: Bool` configuration variable. Fixes#227.
This patch fixes a bug where `Literate.markdown` with `execute=true`
would (try to) output images in the wrong directory. This only occured
when passing a relative output directory. Fixes#228.
When executing markdown (Literate.markdown(...; execute=true) images
where previously saved to files where the name was based on the hash of
the source block. This patch changes this such that files instead follow
the format {name}-{blocknumber}.(svg|png|...). Closes#204.
Automatic head branch detection (introduced in version 2.11.0) caused a
performance regression since the `git remote show` command takes ~1
second. For documentation builds with many literate files this caused
significant slowdowns, which is particularly annoying when doing
iterative buils with eg.
[LiveServer.jl](https://github.com/tlienart/LiveServer.jl). Literate now
caches the remote head branch on a per-repo basis, so the 1 second delay
should only be noticed on the first run of the first file in a repo. As
noted in the changelog entry for 2.11.0 it is also possible to specify
the head branch by passing the `edit_commit` keyword argument. Doing so
will now completely skip the slow `git` command.
