posts_collate

{% comment %}<!--
Collate_posts helper. Collated posts by year and month.
Usage:
  1) assign the 'posts_collate' variable to a valid array of posts.
  2) include JB/posts_collate
  example:
    {% assign posts_collate = site.posts %}
    {% include JB/posts_collate %}

  Ordering:
    Posts are displayed in reverse chronological order.
    For normal chronological order:
      1) Change the for loop to this:
        => 'for post in site.posts reversed'
      2) Next make sure to change 'post.previous.date' to:
        => 'post.next.date'
