PR's are cool too.

Just take a look at open pull requests at [metalsmith-excerpts](https://github.com/segmentio/metalsmith-excerpts/pulls) or [metalsmith-permalinks](https://github.com/segmentio/metalsmith-permalinks/pulls) (there is also an open pr of my own).\r\n\r\nI would like to see the functionality of metalsmith-better-excerpts in metalsmith-excerpts, but i don't want to waste any energy in creating pull requests that will never be merged. That's why i ended up with my own excerpt plugin. I'm tired of linking forks in my package.json, because people are lazy on PRs...\r\n\r\nBut hey, this is open source. Feel free to create a pull request for metalsmith-excerpts...\r\n"}}
