The function check_site() runs all check_*() functions on this
page against a website project. See ‘Details’ for what each
check_*() function does.

check_content()
check_config() checks the configuration file
(config.yaml or config.toml) for settings such as
baseURL and ignoreFiles.
check_gitignore() checks if necessary files are incorrectly
ignored in GIT.
check_hugo() checks possible problems with the Hugo
installation and version.
check_netlify() checks the Hugo version specification and the
publish directory in the Netlify config file netlify.toml.
Specifically, it will check if the local Hugo version matches the version
specified in netlify.toml (in the environment variable
HUGO_VERSION), and if the publish setting in
netlify.toml matches the publishDir setting in Hugo's config
file (if it is set).
check_vercel() checks if the Hugo version specified in
vercel.json (if it exists) matches the Hugo version used in the
current system.
check_content() checks for possible problems in the content
files. First, it checks for the validity of YAML metadata of all posts.
Then it searches for posts with future dates and draft posts, and lists
them if found (such posts appear in the local preview by default, but will
be ignored by default when building the site). Then it checks for R
Markdown posts that have not been rendered, or have output files older than
the source files, and plain Markdown posts that have .html output
files (which they should not have). At last, it detects .html files
that seem to be generated by clicking the Knit button in RStudio with
blogdown < v0.21. Such .html files should be deleted, since
the Knit button only works with blogdown >= v0.21.
