Nikola v5 Released

A new version of Nikola is out! You can get it at the usual place.

This version is not completely backwards compatible, thus the new major version number, but switching to it should be easy-ish. If you are using version 4.0.3:

  1. Remove your dodo.py
  2. Use nikola build instead of doit from now on
  3. use nikola serve instead of doit serve, nikola new_post instead of doit new_post, and so on. Some other doit task are also converted into nikola command you can get the list using nikola help

The integration of doit into Nikola is not done in a very nice way, that's still ongoing work, but it should be Good Enough To Work (TM).

Hope you enjoy this release!
