27796720d5 Upgrade to GPL v3 and add headers to files (#44) 
Following advice from maintainers@gnu.org, bring Stow in line with
other GNU projects by upgrading it from GPL v2 to v3

  https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Licensing-of-GNU-Packages.html#Licensing-of-GNU-Packages

as obtained in plain text and texinfo formats from

  https://www.gnu.org/licenses/

and adding appropriate headers:

72ef83cebd Fix old descriptions of Stow (#22) 
De-emphasise the package management aspects, since these days
almost everyone prefers to use modern package managers such as
rpm / dpkg / Nix for (system-wide) package management.

Also include more popular modern use cases for Stow such as management
of dotfiles and software compiled in the user's $HOME directory.

43333b8eca add Stow/Util.pm.in with @VERSION@ substitution 
This is now necessary in order to prevent pause.perl.org from
complaining:

    Status: Decreasing version number
    =================================

         module : Stow::Util
         version: undef
         in file: lib/Stow/Util.pm
         status : Not indexed because lib/Stow/Util.pm in
                 A/AS/ASPIERS/Stow-v2.2.0.tar.gz has a higher version number
                 (0)

7b43622dd9 fix stowing of relative links when --no-folding is used 
With a tree like this:

    .
    |-- stow
    |   `-- pkg
    |       `-- lib
    |           |-- itk-current -> itk4.0.0
    |           `-- itk4.0.0
    |               `-- libitk4.0.0.so
    `-- target
        `-- lib
            |-- itk4.0.0 -> ../../stow/pkg/lib/itk4.0.0
            `-- libfoo-1.2.3.so

stowing pkg with the --no-folding option resulted in itk-current
being "unpacked":

    .
    `-- target
        `-- lib
            |-- itk-current
            |   `-- libitk4.0.0.so -> ../../../stow/pkg/lib/itk-current/libitk4.0.0.so
            |-- itk4.0.0
            |   `-- libitk4.0.0.so -> ../../../stow/pkg/lib/itk4.0.0/libitk4.0.0.so
            `-- libfoo-1.2.3.so

This commit fixes it so that it gets stowed as a symlink:

  .
  `-- target
      `-- lib
          ...
          |-- itk-current -> ../../stow/pkg/lib/itk-current
          ...

Thanks to Gabriele Balducci for reporting this problem:

d788ce0c1c avoid precedence warning 
With Perl 5.20, installing a package with stow gives a warning like
this:

  Possible precedence issue with control flow operator at
  /gar/packages/stow-2.2.0/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20.0/Stow.pm line 1736.

c500216f20 correctly handle the stow/target directories as non-canonical paths 
Fix the case discovered by Hiroyuki Iwatsuki where stowing fails if
the stow / target directories are non-canonical paths.  For example,
on FreeBSD /home is a symlink pointing to 'usr/home', so running with
the stow directory as /home/user/local/stow and the target directory
as /home/user/local previously resulted in the stow directory path
being calculated as ../../../usr/home/user/local/stow relative to
the target.

8357dca645 Remove "There are no outstanding operations to perform" warning. 
This is more in keeping with the UNIX convention of no output on success,
and is also the way Stow v1.x behaved.  Thanks to Adam Sampson for the suggestion.
