@Starefossen this would be a useful addition

Up until the last 2-3 months, we managed without a Gemfile. There were a number of authors on a mixture of Mac and PC, and some people ran Jekyll directly while others used Docker. Then a number of problems started happening, and the best we could grasp was dependency hell. So I added a Gemfile which simply had these three lines:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'github-pages', '160', :group => :jekyll_plugins
gem 'tzinfo-data', :platforms => [:mingw, :mswin, :x64_mingw]
Interestingly, the jekyll-seo-tag gem is one of the many gems that gets installed after doing a bundle install. Have a look at our Gemfile.lock which shows all the ruby gems installed.
I hope this comment might help provide some insight?

Addresses #16.
This is incomplete: can we provide a list of pre-installed plugins that a user does not need to explictly declare? @Starefossen
