July 4-17, 2021 in Darker: Contributor recognition and VSCode configuration fix

[akaihola]

This period saw us focusing on acknowledging our contributors and resolving configuration issues. We updated our documentation to recognize new contributors for the upcoming 1.3.0 release (#154). Several community members, including @talhajunaidd, @hauntsaninja, @muggenhor, and @AcksID, were added to our list of contributors, highlighting the growing support for our project.

We made progress on a VSCode-related issue (#147) where a user was experiencing difficulties with Darker's formatting behavior. Through collaborative debugging, we identified that the problem stemmed from incorrect configuration in the blackArgs setting. The issue was resolved by adjusting the argument format from "--lint pylint" to "--lint=pylint", emphasizing the importance of proper command-line argument handling in different environments.

We also explored a new feature request for piping the formatted file to stdout (#164). Community members suggested workarounds using patch, and we began discussing the implementation of a -d/--stdout option similar to other formatting tools. This led to the creation of a new pull request (#165) to add this functionality, with ongoing discussions about its behavior in various scenarios.
