Fintan Halpenny 9ff0e8b01f just: checking for ellipses
Add custom check for ellipses "...", asking for replacement of "…".

Git ranges and the CLI wildcard matches are ignored.

This change includes fixes to all sites that did not pass the check.

$ rad auth --alias "alice"

Initializing your Radicle 👾 identity

✓ Creating your Ed25519 keypair…
✓ Your Radicle DID is did:key:z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi. This identifies your device. Run `rad self` to show it at all times.
✓ You're all set.

✗ Hint: install ssh-agent to have it fill in your passphrase for you when signing.

To create a Radicle repository, run `rad init` from a Git repository with at least one commit.
To clone a repository, run `rad clone <rid>`. For example, `rad clone rad:z3gqcJUoA1n9HaHKufZs5FCSGazv5` clones the Radicle 'heartwood' repository.
To get a list of all commands, run `rad`.

You can get the above information at all times using the self command:

$ rad self --did
did:key:z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi

You can also show your alias:

$ rad self --alias
alice
