-	Hugo `0.79.0` is a small, but useful release. You can now set custom `.Params` in your [menu](https://gohugo.io/content-management/menus/) configuration, and you can now also override deeply nested snake_cased configuration variables with [OS environment variables](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration/#configure-with-environment-variables). Other than that we have refreshed all the core upstream dependencies. A special thanks to [@alecthomas](https://github.com/alecthomas) (some new [Chroma lexers](https://github.com/alecthomas/chroma/releases/tag/v0.8.2) and fixes) and [@evanw](https://github.com/evanw) ([ESBuild](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild)).
