I’m sure hugo deploy is great for people who use the supported cloud services, but I am a bit miffed by all the dependencies they pull in. I wonder if we could have a build tag, e.g. go install --tags nocloud to compile Hugo without all the cloud stuff I don’t need, and quite frankly don’t trust.
For some more context, I’ve been bitten by Microsoft Azure’s poor portability breaking my builds on SmartOS (Solaris), and what’s worse it took them over a year to merge the changes handed to them on a silver platter by another unpaid contributor. Fortunately bep quickly merged my pull request to disable Azure on Solaris, but I am still annoyed at the amount of my time wasted tracking down the bug caused by Microsoft, a company I am not exactly fond of to begin with.
