- New upstream release 1.132
New Features
- In the ProhibitLeadingZeros policy, added an exception for mkfifo (GH#786)
- Add colour support for Windows platforms (GH#700)
- Perl::Critic now assumes that .psgi files are Perl, too (GH#805)
- Variables::ProhibitUnusedVariables no longer gives a false positive for
variables used in interpolation (GH#801)
- Added the ability to specify a regex to tell what unused private
subroutines are OK in Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines; this
is handy for Moose classes where there could be many false positives on
_build_xxxx() subroutines (GH#811, GH#812)
Dependencies
- Perl::Critic now no longer relies on the deprecated Email::Address
(GH #816)
Bug Fixes
- Recode Perl::Critic::Utils::all_perl_files() to use File::Find instead of
opendir/readdir; this solves endless directory traversals if the
directories contain circular symbolic references
- Added missing requirement for Fatal.pm
Documentation
- Added CONTRIBUTING.md
- Switch upstream from search.cpan.org to metacpan.org
- Switch spell checker from aspell to hunspell
