74e0eab0c5 Mention the dotfiles option in the manual
This should have been part of 182acbbb64
when the option was first added.

This commit basically just copies the help text from stow.in into the
texinfo manual.

9fd3624a75 HOWTO-RELEASE: explicitly push to master
This avoids errors like

    fatal: You are pushing to remote 'savannah', which is not the upstream of
    your current branch 'master', without telling me what to push
    to update which remote branch.

2.3.0 was a big release with lots of stuff, but most releases will
be smaller, so default to not having a ToC.

3aa30ae1aa fix cross-references under --no-folding section of manual
Under emacs, this was previously rendered as

    '--no-folding'

         This disables any further *note tree folding:: or *note tree
         refolding::.  If a new subdirectory is encountered whilst stowing a

which looks awkward.  Similarly under info(1):

    '--no-folding'

         This disables any further *note tree folding:: or *note tree
         refolding::.  If a new subdirectory is encountered whilst stowing a

The new way is undesirably repetitive, but at least grammatically
correct.  I don't think there's a better solution with texinfo :-/

cfb3ff7eff HOWTO-RELEASE: update online docs *after* uploading release
It doesn't make sense to have docs online relating to a release which
isn't yet available; it's less confusing to have a small time window
in which the online docs are out of date.

b6ee2d10d6 cli.t: test with the right Perl executable
t/cli.t calls scripts which run with the first perl found in the
user's PATH (usually the system perl), not with the perl used for the
build, as reported here:

Remove dependencies on Hash::Merge and Clone::Choose (#60)
Remove dependencies on Hash::Merge and Clone::Choose
2019-06-29 13:48:59 +01:00
Adam Spiers
9ce10eb3b1 Remove dependencies on Hash::Merge and Clone::Choose
stow 2.3.0 added external runtime dependencies on Hash::Merge and
Clone::Choose. Historically stow hasn't had runtime dependencies other
than Perl itself, which is a useful property if you're managing the
installation of Perl using stow; the bootstrapping instructions in
stow's manual would need updating to describe how to install these two
modules (and any dependencies they have now or in the future) as well.

However, Hash::Merge is much more general than stow actually needs, so
replace the merge() call with a few lines of equivalent code -- this
avoids the external dependencies, and is clearer than the merge()
call.

Many thanks to Adam Sampson for this patch:

74f0182834 Add separate tests for .stowrc from $HOME and $PWD
.stowrc can be obtained from $HOME and/or the current working
directory; however only the $HOME case was tested before, because
during tests Stow was being run from $HOME.

So switch $TEST_DIR to an absolute path, create a new run_from/
subdirectory, and chdir to that before invoking any Stow code.  This
allows us to test the behaviour of .stowrc in $HOME and run_from/
separately.
