RSS Whitespace and Hugo
One thing I noticed about yesterday’s post was that the code formatting in
the RSS feed was off. This was due to building the site with Hugo’s --minify
option, which “reached into” the <description> item for the post and
squished the whitespace without regard to whether it was in a <pre> block.
This was a simple fix: in Hugo’s settings there are a bunch of options for
minify, one of which is disableXML. Add that to your config
file, rebuild, and you’re done:
[minify]
disableXML = true
