July 18-31, 2021 in Darker: Contributor recognition and new stdout feature

[akaihola]

This period saw us focusing on acknowledging our contributors and implementing new features. We updated our documentation to recognize new contributors for the upcoming 1.3.0 release (#154), adding several community members to our list of contributors.

We made progress on a new feature request for piping formatted files to stdout (#164). After exploring workarounds using patch, we began implementing a -d/--stdout option similar to other formatting tools. Discussions are ongoing about its behavior in various scenarios, particularly how to handle cases with multiple files or when no changes are needed. We also addressed a long-standing issue regarding the handling of untracked files (#85), which has now been closed.

In response to user feedback, we continued working on respecting 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.
