Wed Jan 02 20:58:05 2002 Guillaume Morin <gmorin@gnu.org>

this bug.
Sun Dec 30 21:58:25 2001 Guillaume Morin <gmorin@gnu.org>

* Makefile.am:
Add maintainer-only rules for stow-manual.html and stow-manual.texi.

* stow.in: Add --restow (-R) option

Mon Jun 24 23:23:03 1996 Bob Glickstein <bobg@hiro.zanshin.com>
* stow.texi: Delete trailing whitespace.
Fri Jun 21 19:44:26 1996 Bob Glickstein <bobg@hiro.zanshin.com>
* Makefile.am:
Don't explicitly mention version.texi. Automake now does it
automagically, by noticing the `@include version.texi' in
stow.texi. Awesome.
* stow.texi:
Use @include instead of @input. This is more Texinfoid, plus
allows Automake to automatically deduce the need for
version.texi.
* stow.in:
Elide trailing slashes from package names, then complain if
package names have slashes in them.
Tue Jun 18 23:19:04 1996 Bob Glickstein <bobg@hiro.zanshin.com>

* configure.in:
Bump version number to 1.2.
Look for Perl under the names `perl' and `perl5'. If not found,
print a warning.
* stow.texi:
Add a section about bootstrapping. Add text about hacking Gnu
Make output.
* INSTALL:
Describe what happens when Perl isn't found during `configure'.
Mon Jun 17 19:43:25 1996 Bob Glickstein <bobg@hiro.zanshin.com>
