After nearly a month and a half of hard work, the Jekyll team is happy to
 | 
						|
announce the release of v1.2.0. It's chock full of bug fixes and some
 | 
						|
enhancements that we think you'll love.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here are a few things we think you'll want to know about this release:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Run `jekyll serve --detach` to boot up a WEBrick server in the background. **Note:** you'll need to run `kill [server_pid]` to shut the server down.
 | 
						|
* You can now **disable automatically-generated excerpts** if you set `excerpt_separator` to `""`.
 | 
						|
* If you're moving around pages and post, you can now check for **URL conflicts** by running `jekyll doctor`.
 | 
						|
* If you're a fan of the drafts feature, you'll be happy to know we've added `-D`, a shortened version of `--drafts`.
 | 
						|
* Permalinks with special characters should now generate without errors.
 | 
						|
* Expose the current Jekyll version as the `jekyll.version` Liquid variable.
