GitHub Pages to upgrade to Jekyll 3.2

GitHub Pages planned an upgrade to Jekyll 3.2 on August 23rd, introducing over 100 improvements, including themes that allow users to create visually appealing sites by simply adding a theme to their site’s configuration. While the transition was expected to be smooth for most users, those with complex Jekyll sites were advised to test their sites locally with the latest version before the upgrade date to ensure continued functionality. Ben Balter, who announced the upgrade, is GitHub's Chief of Staff for Security and has previously held roles that involved managing enterprise offerings and overseeing the platform's Trust and Safety efforts, contributing significantly to community management, privacy, compliance, and security initiatives on GitHub.
