 -   Added `gitRevision:short` placeholder option to `--sourceLinkTemplate` option, #2529.
     Links generated by TypeDoc will now default to using the non-short git revision.
+-   Moved "Generated by TypeDoc" footer into a `<footer>` tag, added `footer.begin` and `footer.end`
+    render hooks for use by custom plugins, #2532.
