Update tests.
Reason: it turns out that the native output generated by
pretty-simple isn't always readable by the native reader.
According to https://github.com/cdepillabout/pretty-simple/issues/99
it is not a design goal of the library that the rendered values
be readable using 'read'. This makes it unsuitable for our
purposes.
pretty-show is a bit slower and it uses 4-space indents
(non-configurable), but it doesn't have this serious drawback.
Previously we used our own homespun formatting. But this
produces over-long lines that aren't ideal for diffs in tests.
Easier to use something off-the-shelf and standard.
Closes#7580.
Performance is slower by about a factor of 10, but this isn't
really a problem because native isn't suitable as a serialization
format. (For serialization you should use json, because the reader
is so much faster than native.)
With positive heading shifts, starting in 2.8 this option caused
metadata titles to be removed and changed to regular headings.
This behavior is incompatible with the old behavior of
`--base-header-level` and breaks old workflows, so with this
commit we are rolling back this change.
Now, there is an asymmetry in positive and negative heading
level shifts:
+ With positive shifts, the metadata title stays the same and
does not get changed to a heading in the body.
+ With negative shifts, a heading can be converted into the
metadata title.
I think this is a desirable combination of features, despite
the asymmetry. One might, e.g., want to have a document
with level-1 section headigs, but render it to HTML with
level-2 headings, retaining the metadata title (which pandoc
will render as a level-1 heading with the default template).
Closes#5957.
Revises #5615.
Deprecate --base-heading-level.
The new option does everything the old one does, but also
allows negative shifts. It also promotes the document
metadata (if not null) to a level-1 heading with a +1 shift,
and demotes an initial level-1 heading to document metadata
with a -1 shift. This supports converting documents that
use an initial level-1 heading for the document title.
Closes#5615.
