          Michael McClimon, and Matthew Horsfall.

        - PPI now handles characters, not bytes, fixing non-ASCII
          non-comments in your source

6.002     2016-04-23 17:50:26+01:00 Europe/London (TRIAL RELEASE)
        - tweaks to Dist::Zilla::Path to keep plugins from v5 era working

6.001     2016-04-23 13:21:56+01:00 Europe/London
        [THIS RELEASE MIGHT BREAK YOUR BUILD]
        - Using a Dist::Zilla::Path like a Path::Class object now issues a
          deprecation warning ("this will be removed") once per call site.

6.000     2016-04-23 11:35:28+01:00 Europe/London (TRIAL RELEASE)
        [THIS RELEASE MIGHT BREAK YOUR BUILD]
        - Path::Class has been excised in favor of Path::Tiny, exposed as
          Dist::Zilla::Path; it will still respond to ->subdir and ->file, but
          only until Dist::Zilla v7 -- fix your plugins by then!

        - The --verbose switch to dzil is now strictly on/off.  To set
          verbosity on a per-plugin basis, use the -V switch.  Unfortunately,
          per-plugin verbosity seems to have been broken for some time, anyway.

        - The plugins [Prereq] and [AutoPrereq] and [BumpVersion] have been
          removed.  These were long deprecated.  (Don't confuse Prereq, for
          example, with the plural Prereqs, which is the correct plugin.)

        - [PkgVersion] now supports a use_package argument which will put the
          version in the package statement.  (Remember that this syntax was
          introduced in perl v5.12.0.)

        - Dist::Zilla now requires perl v5.14.0.  It will still happily build
          dists that run on whatever version of perl you like.

5.047     2016-04-23 16:20:13+01:00 Europe/London
        - cast things to Path::Class as needed, for now, for v6 backcompat
          (don't expect more commits like this)

5.046     2016-04-22 15:50:27+01:00 Europe/London
        - avoid using syntax that is called ambiguous on older perls

5.045     2016-04-22 11:37:13+01:00 Europe/London
        - add 'relationship' option to AutoPrereqs plugin (Karen Etheridge)
        - PrereqScanner role abstracts much of the AutoPrereqs behavior
          (thanks, Olivier Mengué!)
        - remove duplicates from the results of the :ExecFiles filefinder
        - [MakeMaker] now rejects version ranges in prereqs if eumm_version is
          not specified to be high enough (7.1101) to guarantee it can be
          handled (Karen Etheridge)
        - allow comments in an authordep specification with a version
        - make FakeReleaser a bit more of a drop-in for UploadToCPAN
          (Erik Carlsson)
        - make PkgDist preserve blank line after 'package' for PkgVersion
          (Chisel Wright)
        - add rename option to [GatherDir::Template] (Alastair McGowan-Douglas)
        - META.json is now emitted in ASCII (using \u... for non-ASCII
          characters) to avoid a bug in older versions of JSON::PP on older
          versions of perl
        - "dzil build --in ." no longer allows you to blow away your cwd

5.044     2016-04-06 20:32:14-04:00 America/New_York
        - require a newer List::Util to avoid a dumb bug caused by relying on
          side effects of loading Moose (thanks, Karen Etheridge!)

5.043     2016-01-04 22:54:56-05:00 America/New_York
        - dzil test now supports --extended to set EXTENDED_TESTING (thanks,
          Philippe Bruhat)

5.042     2015-11-26 09:05:37-05:00 America/New_York
        - try to avoid testing errors when the local time zone can't be
          determined (https://github.com/rjbs/Dist-Zilla/issues/497)

5.041     2015-10-27 22:07:54-04:00 America/New_York
        - add 'static_attribution' attribution to MakeMaker plugin
        - fix prereqs for App::Cmd and Config::MVP::Reader::INI

5.040     2015-10-13 11:42:25-04:00 America/New_York
        - the distribution tarball name no longer includes -TRIAL if the
          version contains an underscore

        - [PkgVersion] adds "$VERSION = $VERSION_SANS_UNDERSCORES" when
          version contains an underscore

        - made the PodCoverageTests and PodSyntaxTests plugins generate author
          tests, not release tests. These are tests you want passing on every
          commit, not just before a release (Dave Rolsky)

5.039     2015-08-10 09:03:08-04:00 America/New_York
        - update required version of MooseX::Role::Parameterized; older
          versions work, but can cause a bunch of unwanted warnings

5.038     2015-08-07 22:16:50-04:00 America/New_York
        - [License] can be given a filename option to use instead of LICENSE
        - dzil listdeps --develop now exists as an alias for dzil listdeps

          Wheeler!)

          Karen Etheridge)
        - new file finder ':PerlExecFiles' (thanks, Karen Etheridge)
        - try harder to notice failure to set up build root, especially on

        - better errors when a global config package isn't available (thanks,
          Karen Etheridge)
        - added the "ignore" option to [Encoding] (thanks, Yanick Champoux)
        - allow ; authordep specifications to contain version ranges (thanks,
          Karen Etheridge)
        - better error when PAUSE credentials can't be loaded (thanks, David
          Golden)
        - fix documentation for the LicenseProvider role
        - improve errors when PPI failes to parse (thanks, Nick Tonkin)
        - sort list of executable files in Makefile.PL, for deterministic
          builds (thanks, Karen Etheridge)
        - omit configure-requires prerequisites from [MakeMaker]'s fallback
          prerequisites (used by older ExtUtils::MakeMaker)

5.037     2015-06-04 21:46:38-04:00 America/New_York
        - issue a warning when version ranges are passed through to
          ExtUtils::MakeMaker, which cannot parse them and treats them as '0'
          https://github.com/Perl-Toolchain-Gang/ExtUtils-MakeMaker/issues/215

        - added %P formatter code to [NextRelease] for the releaser's PAUSE id

5.036     2015-05-02 11:08:51-04:00 America/New_York
        - BUGFIX: detection of trial status via underscore in version was
          accidentally lost in v5.035; restored now!

        - [AutoPrereqs] now filters out all namespaces found in contained

        - listdeps now takes --omit-core to skip core modules
        - don't try to use terminal encoding on locale-free systems
        - suggest the use of PPI::XS

        - META.json is now a UTF-8 file, rather than ASCII
        - document the use of filefinders in [PkgVersion], and remove
          filtering out of .t, .pod files; do skip non-text files, though

        - if there's a blank line after the package statement (and any number
          of comment-only lines), PkgVersion will use that for a $VERSION
          assignment, rather than insert a new line; this can be made mandatory
          with die_on_line_insertion

        - fix :ShareFiles (thanks, Christopher J. Madsen and Karen Etheridge)
        - new :AllFiles and :NoFiles filefinders (thanks, Karen Etheridge)

          David Golden)

4.300038  2013-09-08 09:18:34 America/New_York
        - add horrible hack to avoid generating non-UTF-8 META.yml; seriously,
          don't look at the code!  Thanks, David Golden, whose code was simple
          and probably much, much saner, but didn't cover as many cases as rjbs
          wanted to cover.

        - improve errors when there's not enough configuration and no global
          config file can be found (thanks, Dimitar Petrov)

        - delay loading yet more libraries until needed (thanks, Olivier
          Mengué!)

4.300028  2012-10-19 10:50:42 America/New_York
        - when picking modules to treat as "part of the dist," be more lax in
          understanding libraries under ./t:  ./t/lib/Foo.pm is now treated as
          providing t::lib::Foo, lib::Foo, and Foo

4.300027  2012-10-16 21:07:06 America/New_York
        - the "latest" symlink code broke Dist::Zilla on win32; fixed now!

        - The GatherDir::Template documentation has been improved
          (Thanks, Christopher J. Madsen!)

        - Depend on a more recent version of Config::MVP, which requires a fix

          Christopher J. Madsen!)

          (Thanks, Christopher J. Madsen!)

        - the (lack of) order of check of authordeps is now a bit more
          predictible:
          - plugins declared with "; authordep" lines are loaded before others
          - inc:: plugins are checked first and in ASCII order
          (Thanks, Olivier Mengué!)

          pass to Perl::PrereqScanner (Thanks, Christopher J. Madsen!)

        - Prune perl prereqs out of BUILD_REQUIRES for EU::MM, and pick the
          highest required perl of either runtime or built requires.  (Thanks,
          Christopher J. Madsen!)

        - Test routines should now properly report the calling line for
          failures ($Test::Builder::Level is being set) (Thanks, Christopher J.
          Madsen!)

        - Several improvements to how PPI is used should speed up the
          performance of Perl file munging and scanning.  The PPI role was
          added.  (Thanks, Dave Rolsky!)

        - We now use Archive::Tar::Wrapper if available, to speed up archive
          building.  (Thanks, Dave Rolsky!)

4.300000  2011-08-19 10:12:36 America/New_York
        - turn on Useqq option for Dumper, to get unicode string literals set
          properly in Makefile.PL and Build.PL without using utf8.pm

        - decode user input from Chrome::Term as UTF-8

        - during `dzil setup`, the config.ini file is now created with an added
          umask of 077 to avoid other users reading your PAUSE credentials

          namespace::autoclean

4.200017  2011-08-17 18:54:07 America/New_York
        - require and adapt to the new Perl::PrereqScanner, which does not
          prune out prereqs just because they're core and common

4.200016  2011-08-17 18:07:21 America/New_York

4.200015  2011-08-12 13:45:42 America/New_York
        - don't build the dist in a directory with -TRIAL in the name; this
          should fix bugs in "dzil release --trial" and probably other related
          bugs

4.200014  2011-08-07 18:18:01 America/New_York
        - add documentation for TemplateModule (thanks, Kent Fredric)

          stop being so pushy about running dzil setup (reported by AVAR)

          dzil setup will not die if ~/.dzil does not exist (reported by David
          Golden)

4.101831  2010-07-02 18:33:58 America/New_York

4.101800  2010-06-29 10:29:38 America/New_York
          during dist minting, ModuleMaker occurs before FileGatherer

          ModuleBuild's module_build argument generation is now a method

          Dist::Zilla is now an abstract base class, basically

          * Dist::Zilla::Dist::Builder and ::Minter perform the real work

          * Dist::Zilla::Tester has been updated to work with these

          a very basic test for minting, now possible, has been added

          added prune_file method to Dist::Zilla to eliminate the need for
          altering the ->files arrayref directly

          added the ClearPrereqs plugin

          [Prereq] is now called [Prereqs], but [Prereq] will continue to work
          until v6 or v7 or so

4.101780  2010-06-27 14:30:55 America/New_York
          the Chrome role now requires three input methods: prompt_any_key,
          prompt_yn, and prompt_str

          Term and Test chrome now implement the required input methods

          ConfirmRelease now uses Chrome to prompt for input

4.101612  2010-06-10 12:12:00 America/New_York
          The PAUSE indexer will not be pleased. The 4.101610 PkgVersion
          changes are entirely reverted.

4.101611  2010-06-10 11:37:52 America/New_York
          added nonsensical $VERSION = $VERSION to appease the PAUSE indexer
          and other garbage code that evals a single line to guess at the
          version's value

4.101610  2010-06-10 10:01:37 America/New_York
          Fix Win32 \r\n emission. \r\n is only emitted now if its there in
          the original code. Tests included to make sure DZil doesn't sufer
          the problem under itself on windows. (Kent Fredric)

          Fix Tar permissions. (Kent Fredric, stolen from Module::Build)

          @Filter can now pass arguments along to the filter if you use a new
          dash-prefix config convention.  Consult its documentation for more
          information.  (Florian Ragwitz)

          PkgVersion now adds the version assignment to the same line as the
          package declaration to avoid altering line numbering.  (David
          Golden)

4.101582  2010-06-07 18:23:04 America/New_York
          improve tests to work with new CPAN::Meta

          a few improvements to use of type constraints in Zilla.pm

          some methods that were undocumented have been _-prefixed

          ModuleBuild now turns on recursive_test_files unconditionally

          the install_command argument to $zilla->install should now be an
          arrayref

          suppressed a stringifying-undef warning when using UploadToCPAN

          no longer try to compose an obsolete Dist::Zilla::Config role

4.101540  2010-06-03 23:52:52 America/New_York
          INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:

          New global config system!

          Your ~/.dzil/config.ini is now broken.  Running `dzil` should tell
          you how to fix it.  Probably just replace [!release] with [%PAUSE]
          and delete everything else.  Hope that helps!

          Major refactoring of our use of Config::MVP; this probably won't
          break anything unless you wrote your own config readers, which I'm
          pretty sure you haven't done!

          config parameters beginning with a colon are not passed to plugins
          (this should not really affect anyone)

          OTHER CHANGES:

          plugins are now registered as soon as their config section has been
          read

          Dist::Zilla::Role::Stash has been added

          :version can now be passed as a config section value to require that
          the config's package be of the specified version

          reserved config property names (plugin_name, zilla) are now fatal
          during config read rather than plugin instantiation

          core license attrs will look in the %Rights stash for defaults

          `dzil new` will work if you have no configured profiles

          generated Makefile.PL no longer has trailing spaces (Florian Ragwitz)

          Document 'user' parameter for :FakeRelease (Kent Fredric)

          will probably work just fine on Win32 now!

3.101520  2010-06-01 11:50:16 America/New_York
          unixify all gathered filenames (Christian Walde)

          INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:

          the as_distmeta method of Prereqs is removed

          the ->prereq method on Dist::Zilla is gone (only prereqs remains)

          distmeta is managed by CPAN::Meta, which expects v2 spec data by
          default

          most Dist::Zilla::Types are gone, now in MooseX::Types::Perl

          OTHER CHANGES:

          META.json and META.yml are now produced by CPAN::Meta

          Dist::Zilla::Prereqs now proxies for CPAN::Meta::Prereqs

          MetaResources supports CPAN Meta Spec version 2, but still works
            with old-style resources as well (Dave Rolsky)

          quote filenames with spaces in MANIFEST (Dave Rolsky)

          Manifest plugin is now a FileGatherer, not an InstallTool

          attempted a fix for `dzil install` on Win32 (RT #57404)

            Smidsrød)

          the new `dzil new` does stuff, but is not documented

          add a "user" parameter to FakeRelease (David Golden)

          minor documentation improvements here and there

2.101170  2010-04-27 09:59:11 America/New_York

2.101160  2010-04-26 19:51:52 America/New_York
          `dzil new` now does nothing and says so

          dzil commands will not create a zilla object just for logging

          easy bundles will less often create names with @@ in them

2.101151  2010-04-25 23:40:28 America/New_York
          GatherDir and PruneCruft now both have verbose log output
