rubocop/rubocop v0.26.0 on GitHub

Nothing particularly exciting this time around. The new release comes
with lots of bug fixes, more auto-corrections and several new cops.

Note that the Style/Encoding cop is now disabled by default. See
#1304 for the rationale behind this change.

Below is the list of all the gory details. Enjoy!

New formatter HTMLFormatter generates a html file with a list of files with offences in them. (@SkuliOskarsson)
New cop SpaceInsideRangeLiteral checks for spaces around .. and ... in range literals. (@bbatsov)
New cop InfiniteLoop checks for places where Kernel#loop should have been used. (@bbatsov)
New cop SymbolProc checks for places where a symbol can be used as proc instead of a block. (@bbatsov)
UselessAssignment cop now suggests a variable name for possible typos if there's a variable-ish identifier similar to the unused variable name in the same scope. (@yujinakayama)
PredicateName cop now has separate configurations for prefices that denote predicate method names and predicate prefices that should be removed. (@bbatsov)
