June 13-26, 2021 in Darker: Contributor recognition, configuration improvements, and release preparations

[akaihola]

This period saw us focusing on acknowledging our contributors and addressing configuration-related issues. We updated the README to recognize new contributors as of version 1.2.4 (#136), adding acknowledgments for code reviews and contributions from several community members.

We made progress on several configuration and compatibility issues. We continued discussions on how Darker should respect Black's exclude patterns while still applying other tools like isort, Pylint, and Mypy to excluded files (#146). We're exploring options to either leverage Black's configuration parsing or implement our own solution. Additionally, we addressed a Windows-specific formatting issue (#133) where Darker produced different results compared to Unix-based systems.

In preparation for the upcoming release, we closed several issues related to version 1.2.4 (#143) and added conda installation instructions (#131). We also initiated a vote for establishing a support/development chat channel (#151), offering options like Gitter, Libera Chat IRC, and GitHub Discussions. Lastly, we acknowledged a feature request to support Black's --skip-magic-trailing-comma flag (#152).
