Can I preview my Hugo site before merging a Pull Request?

Yes, the skill includes a dedicated PR Preview workflow that builds the site and provides a build summary without deploying it to the live environment.

Does this skill support the Hugo Extended edition?

Yes, the provided workflow includes logic to download and install the Hugo Extended edition, which is required for processing SCSS and PostCSS.

Why should I use path filtering in my Hugo workflow?

Path filtering prevents the site from rebuilding on every code commit, saving CI/CD minutes by only triggering when content, themes, or configurations change.

How does it handle Hugo module dependencies in CI?

The workflow includes a caching step specifically for Hugo modules to speed up subsequent builds and ensure consistent dependency resolution.
