Add a new expand_tilde() function that performs tilde expansion of
strings, and corresponding unit tests:
* A ~ at the beginning of a path is expanded to the user's home
directory.
* Literal '~' can be provided with '\~'
Combine this with expand_environment() in a new expand_filepath()
function which applies all (both) required expansion functions to a
string, and use that in get_config_file_options() to expand .stowrc
options.
Add more tests to check that tilde expanded in correct places, i.e.:
* expanded for --target and --dir
* not expanded for --ignore, --defer, or --override
Update documentation on stowrc files according to this functionality
change.
Fixes#14: https://github.com/aspiers/stow/issues/14
Since 2.3.0 is a long overdue release and has many changes,
document them in NEWS in three groups:
- New features / changes in behaviour
- Documentation fixes and enhancements
- Fixes for bugs and technical debt
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)
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.
