When I run: hugo -t strata on my local workstation, it outputs the proper directories (css, js, img, etc) in the /public directory.
However, when I run hugo -t strata in my travis.yml, it renders the site content, but does not properly copy the static files incorporated in the theme.
you are using Hugo HEAD. Usually that’s not the best idea as we don’t make any promises that it will work at any given time. The releases are stable and should work consistently.
I’ve recently rewritten much of the static sync code. I’ve done a lot of testing on it, but I haven’t tested it exhaustively. It’s possible you’ve found a bug specific to the environment that TravisCI uses. It’s also possible that you found a bug broader than that. We can add more debugging information to Hugo which would better tell us what’s happening.
Let’s move this to an issue on Github and follow up there.
