• Correct the Dependent Unload mechanism when it triggers the unload of 2 modules making together a requirement from another module. This module is now also added to the dependent modules to unload.
• Doc: add a cookbook section in the documentation and port there the 3 pre-existing recipes: inhibit-report-info, top-priority-values and unload-firstly-loaded.
• Doc: add a CONTRIBUTING guide.
• Doc: fix a typo on the Python initialization example in module man page.
• Doc: add a FAQ entry to describe the use of module from Makefile. (with contribution from Robert McLay)
• Trim any white-space, newline or ; characters at the beginning or end of the function body passed to set-function modulefile command.
• Init: add recognition of the --auto, --no-auto and --force command-line switches in fish shell completion script.
• Init: add recognition of the --auto, --no-auto, --force, --paginate and --no-pager command-line switches in zsh shell completion script.
• When the load of a modulefile is asked but a conflict is registered against this modulefile by an already loaded module, the load evaluation is now performed and the conflict is checked after this evaluation. If the conflict is still there, this evaluation (and the evaluation of its requirements) is rolled back. (fix issue#216)
• Init: fix _module_not_yet_loaded alias in tcsh completion script to handle situation when noclobber variable is set. Also ensure actual rm command is called and not an alias. (fix issue#219)
• Fix warning message when the load of a modulefile is forced over a reflexive conflict (message was reported twice).
• When looking at the dependency of a loaded module, only consider requirement loaded before dependent module (holding a prior position in the loaded module list) as valid. Those loaded after dependent module are considered as an unmet dependency thus they are not taking part in the Dependent Unload, the Useless Requirement Unload and the Dependent Reload mechanisms.
