# Changes for Module::Release

2.05 - Mon Jun 15 04:05:31 2009

• Fixes to SVN status pattern matching
• Set build file names in config, if you like

2.04_03 - Wed Jun 10 01:50:35 2009

• RT 46696: Fix parsing of SVN output, handle makefile config directives as documented.

2.04_01 - Tue Mar 24 04:55:40 2009

• Add experimental ignore_prereqs option to pass on to Test::Prereqs

2.04 - Tue Mar 24 04:07:54 2009

• Use a platform-specific version of devnull

2.03 - Sun Mar 22 06:10:45 2009

• Treat Test::Prereq and Module::CPANTS::Analysse as optional dependencies. They were before, but now you get a nicer error message.

2.02 - Sat Feb 7 17:30:30 2009

• Fix the command runner for the SVN.pm. SVN.pm is otherwise neglected since I've stopped using SVN but I will accept patches.
• The run.t patch undefs PATH before it looks for commands

2.01 - Tue Nov 25 10:37:03 2008

A bump to a release version

2.00_07 - Thu Nov 6 23:11:04 2008

• Changes the methods with "cvs" in the name to be "vcs" instead. The old names came from the time I used CVS, but no one does that anymore. "vcs" is for Version Control System.

2.00_06 - Wed Nov 5 00:42:53 2008

• Fix up a test to work even if the system error message isn't english.

2.00_05 - Tue Nov 4 04:00:40 2008

• Added the -a switch to turn on $ENV{AUTOMATED_TESTING}
• Added the -p switch to turn off prereq tests
• Added automated_testing to possible config directives
• The kwalitee directive is now skip_kwalitee
• There's a skip_prereqs directive

2.00_03 - Fri Aug 15 16:45:23 2008

• Distro cleanup, no big whoop

2.00_02 - Sat Aug 9 03:41:07 2008

• The beginning of the new Module::Release. Lots of stuff moved into separate modules to act as mixins. There is a lot more testing.
• This is still a developer release, so don't get too attached to anything just yet.

1.22 - Sun Apr 6 13:13:30 2008

• BUG FIX: Move kwalitee testing after normal testing, and have the kwalitee tests make their own dist to ensure that they have it.

1.21 - Sat Apr 5 14:54:20 2008

• NEW FEATURE: Now test with multiple perls!

1.20 - Tue Nov 20 07:45:51 2007

• fix dist_version to handle dev versions. Previously it was ignoring the _\d+, so the version that showed up in changes didn't have the _\d+.

1.19 - Sun Nov 11 04:10:22 2007

• Sagar Shah noticed I tried to call _die() before I used bless(). Oops. Fixed.
• If you have older versions before I started using _die(), you don't need to rush to get this version. If you got the latest to use Module::Release::Git, you need to upgrade.

1.18 - Sat Oct 27 22:19:57 2007

• distro cleanups after moving from CVS to SVN
• Changes from Torsten Schoenfeld to make get_readme and get_changes subclassable (that is, call them as methods like everything else)
• Require Perl 5.006. I haven't done anything intentional to not use Perl 5.005, but I don't want to support that. With CPAN Testers going back farther in time now, I have to draw the line somewhere just to manage my time well. :)

1.17_01 - Wed Oct 3 21:52:02 2007

• The output and debugging filehandles come from methods now. This makes it easier to move the output around, or even turn it off. I wanted this for Module::Release::Git. The interface has some new features, but should be compatible with the older stuff.
• Added some git support to release(1). This should refactor itself out in various ways, but I just need the support right now without going through all the work to make it nice nice.

1.17 - Mon Aug 13 13:43:17 2007

• distro cleanups - no need to upgrade

1.16 - Thu May 3 10:08:14 2007

• Fix for test suite problem

1.14 - Fri Mar 16 18:51:26 2007

• use a temp file for cookies
• don't test script if M::R::Subversion isn't installed

1.13 - Thu Feb 22 10:16:18 2007

• Updated the distro for PAUSE indexing problems (my fault)
• release(1) now detects SVN and loads Module::Release::Subversion to handle it (that's a separate distro, though).
• release(1) now uses Module::CPANTS::Analyze's cpants_lint.pl to check kwalitee. That's also a separate distro.

1.12 - Mon Sep 25 22:38:35 CDT 2006

• Changes from Ken Williams
• New 'makefile_PL' and 'makefile' parameters to the new() method allow Module::Build-based distributions to work more smoothly - set them to 'Build.PL' and 'Build', respectively.
• The 'release_subclass' parameter to new() is un-deprecated again.
• Subclasses previously could not override the new() method when invoked via the 'release_subclass' mechanism, now they can.
• When running under a passive FTP mode, we were telling the server to go into passive mode twice, which causes some servers to bomb out. This is fixed.
• The error message when an FTP PUT operation failed has been improved.
• System calls made during the release process will now read their underlying STDOUT and STDERR using read(), which helps you see what's going on when there are interactive steps.
• The getpass() method will now check for CPAN_PASS and SF_PASS values previously set as member variables. This helps users who might want to, for example, look their values up in the OS X keychain using a custom subclass.
• Fixed a couple of minor POD formatting errors.

1.10 - Thu Jun 8 06:51:25 2006

• Distro cleanup (removed sf_login.t test), fixed doc bug about PAUSE, cleansed POD. No need to upgrade.

1.08 - Sat May 20 03:04:01 2006

• Added MANIFEST checking feature. If `make manifest` has to change MANIFEST, check_manifest() dies. You'll have to check in MANIFEST before you can go on anyway, so you might as well stop and take a look at it (and maybe update MANIFEST.SKIP too). I needed this because although I had a lot of pod_coverage tests lying about, they never made it into the dists because I never added them to MANIFEST. Stoopid me.
• This updates the release(1) script too. Make sure you want this feature before you overwrite your old release(1).

1.07 - Wed May 17 21:06:39 2006

• Minor updates to the distro - no code changes. No need to upgrade

0.25 - Fri Dec 17 15:53:15 CST 2004

• No changes to functionality.
• Released only because I (Andy) deleted the latest version, because I thought brian had newer ones, when he didn't. This meant that the indexer got all confused. I hope this stops people from now wondering "Where did Module::Release go?"
• Modernized t/pod.t
• Made tests in t/load.t more inclusive
• Updated the Makefile.PL

0.24 - Sat Nov 29 09:29:36 2003

• fixed a problem in Module::Release's check_cvs routine where it was not checking each line of output

0.23 - Sun Jun 22 23:40:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

• All output now goes to the screen if --debug is on. Thanks to Ken Williams. "High school students."

0.23

• release will show the user all STDOUT of the subprocesses whenever debug is on. This will prevent the machine from waiting for a response from you because you don't know it's there.

0.22 - Wed Apr 9 16:05:08 2003 (Andy Lester)

• release will not run if there are any switch errors
• Added many error checks in ftp_upload.
• Added some docs on how to find sf_group_id and sf_release_id.
• Removed a "last CVS" in cvs() method. It would have blown up if someone didn't have a CVS directory.
• Renamed perl() method to build_makefile()
• Renamed cvs() to check_cvs()
• Added basic POD docs for the functions

0.21 - Sat Mar 29 16:19:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

        Many more patches, thanks to Ken Williams.  I fear it won't be
        long until Module::Release is sending & receiving mail.

        * release only checks for passwords if they're necessary.
          This means you don't have to have a password if you're running
          "release -t" to test.

        * A more complete dependency list in Makefile.PL

        * A new 'release_subclass' config file entry lets you subclass
          Module::Release.  There's an example in the docs.

        * After FTP upload, we check to see whether the two versions of
          the file have the same size.  This should catch my FTP-ing bug.

        * The cvs_tag() method now calls make_cvs_tag() to make the
          tag string.  This lets me override make_cvs_tag() in a subclass.

0.20 - Wed Mar 26 11:05:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

• Moved all the real work into Module::Release. Thanks to Ken Williams for doing all the dirty work on this.
• Fixed the Test::Pod dependency

0.16 - Wed Mar 19 15:38:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

• No new features
• Removed the dependency on Test::Pod

0.15 - Fri Mar 14 17:23:30 2003 (Andy Lester)

• Support for the PERL environment variable.
• Cleaned up tabs 'n' spaces in the source. Shouldn't affect anything in how you use the program.

0.14 - Wed Mar 12 10:09:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

• 0.13 is an incorrect distro. This is what you want.

0.13 - Wed Mar 12 09:58:00 2003 (Andy Lester)

        Most of these changes are from Max Maischein.  Cross-platform
        compatibility should be a lot better.  Thanks, Max!

        * Prompts for passwords that are not set in the environment.

        * Fixed a bug in checking for required fields

        * Uses "$Config{make}" instead of "make".

        * Moved all backticks into a subroutine "run", that also echoes
          the command if "-d" is set.

        * Added a check whether the file-to-distribute actually exists,
          before making the ftp connection.

        * The regex to guess the distname from the tardist output
          needed some whitespace added to work with Win32.

        * Added support for passive FTP.

0.12 - Thu Mar 6 13:55:47 2003 (Andy Lester)

Most of the changes in this revision are from Chris Nandor:

• Add basic help page
• Add more debugging information (dump `` output)
• Add command-line switches for help, debug, and test (exits after testing phase)
• Allow not using either the CPAN or SourceForge.net (but not both)
• Check cvs exit status
• Do not update CVS automatically; release will exit if it sees a U anyway, so might as well just let the developer handle it
• Allow modification of "release name" via regex in .releaserc
• Update docs
• General cleanup

0.11 - Mon Mar 3 11:58:42 2003 (Andy Lester)

• Patches to make this less brian-specific. Thanks to Chris Nandor for taking it upon himself to do so.
• Removed a lot of dependencies on external modules.

0.10 - Wed Dec 11 16:40:53 2002 (brian d foy)

• prompt for comments to put in Changes, commit Changes, and use comments in SourceForge change log notes
• guess the release file name from 'make dist' so the first argument is now optional
• put the right date in the SourceForge release date
