10 Hugo `0.49` brings [directory based archetypes](https://gohugo.io/content-management/archetypes/#directory-based-archetypes) and also improves the language handling in `hugo new`. This should simplify working with [page bundles](https://gohugo.io/content-management/page-bundles/). One example of this would be how you now can create a [new showcase](https://gohugo.io/showcase/template/) for the Hugo web site.
11
12 But this release is also about _collections_. Go 1.11 gave us variable overwrite support in Go templates. That made it possible to simplify a lot of template constructs, but it also showed some limitations in Hugo's template functions. So with this release we have:
13
14 * added [append](https://gohugo.io/functions/append/) function to append to collections.
15 * added [group](https://gohugo.io/functions/group/) to create custom page groups.
16 * improved the type support in [slice](https://gohugo.io/functions/slice/).
17
18 This release represents **66 contributions by 9 contributors** to the main Hugo code base.
19 [@bep](https://github.com/bep) leads the Hugo development with a significant amount of contributions, but also a big shoutout to [@moorereason](https://github.com/moorereason), [@felicianotech](https://github.com/felicianotech), and [@vdanjean](https://github.com/vdanjean) for their ongoing contributions.
20 And a big thanks to [@digitalcraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman) and [@onedrawingperday](https://github.com/onedrawingperday) for their relentless work on keeping the themes site in pristine condition and to [@kaushalmodi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi) for his great work on the documentation site.
21
22 Many have also been busy writing and fixing the documentation in [hugoDocs](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs),
23 which has received **37 contributions by 20 contributors**. A special thanks to [@bep](https://github.com/bep), [@kaushalmodi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi), [@AlexChambers](https://github.com/AlexChambers), and [@shaform](https://github.com/shaform) for their work on the documentation site.

29 * 441+ [contributors](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/graphs/contributors)
30 * 265+ [themes](http://themes.gohugo.io/)

33 ## Notes
34
35 * Remove deprecated `rssURI` [f1a00b20](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/commit/f1a00b2069ede85feb487d29b9f690396e2402c6) [@bep](https://github.com/bep)
36 * Remove deprecated flags [df4cbbd3](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/commit/df4cbbd3bdc05aa14a67b3a0a29a0db75b82e640) [@bep](https://github.com/bep)
37 * Deprecate `Pages.Sort`. Use `.ByWeight` [2e2e34a9](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/commit/2e2e34a9350edec0220462aa3d47ecc9d428a0fb) [@bep](https://github.com/bep)
38 * When setting `preserveTaxonomyNames` Hugo now _really_ preserves them. Before this release, we would make the first character upper case. If this is the behaviour you want you can use the new `strings.FirstUpper` function.
