Path-Tiny 0.142

on Perl CPAN

No changes from 0.141; all changes since last stable release are summarized below.

[*** DEPRECATIONS ***]

• Tilde expansion is deprecated due to inconsistent and bug-prone behavior.
  

[Bug fixes]

• Prevent expansion of tildes that are not the very first character (e.g.
  "./~foo"). Prevent unintentional tilde expansion during internal path
  processing. Escape non-tilde glob characters before tilde expansion.

• Fixed spew/edit to a long filename approaching the filesystem length
  limit.

• Internal calls to print are checked for possible errors.

• Internal read calls are checked for errors.

[Changes]

• Path stringification now adds "./" in front of paths starting with literal tilde
  so they will round-trip. FREEZE updated to use this stringification rule as well.

• move now uses File::Copy::move internally instead of the built-in rename,
  allowing it to work across filesystems. It also returns an object for the
  moved location, allowing chaining.

• edit_lines_raw now uses a buffered raw I/O layer. edit_lines_utf8 now
  prefers PerlIO::utf8_strict, if available.

• lines_utf8 now consistently uses a buffered I/O layer.

• open*_utf8 now prefers PerlIO::utf8_strict, if available.

• slurp_utf8 now consistently uses an unbuffered I/O layer.

[Documented]

• Changed all raw/UTF-8 layer descriptions in method documentation to match
  the code.

• Fixed SYNOPSIS syntax.

• Documented how to disable TMPDIR when making temp files/dirs.

[Testing]

• Add additional tilde stringification testing.

• Fixed tilde expansion tests on Windows.

• Skip a problematic test case on cygwin.
