• Improved advanced API (you might not need this). Existing default export creates an instance and couples data fetching together. This release adds a Fetch named export to create a Fetch instance that does not automatically fetch data and works with the concurrency queue. Use async queue() to fetch data.

import { Fetch } from "@11ty/eleventy-fetch";

let inst = Fetch(source, options);
let data = await inst.queue();

same as:

import CachedFetch from "@11ty/eleventy-fetch";

let data = await CachedFetch(source, options);

• Adds wasLastFetchCacheHit() on Fetch instances, used to solve bug with Eleventy Image disk cache 11ty/image#146
• Improved efficiency: Adds top level instance cache and a few internal caches to avoid duplicate fetch or file system read calls.
