    Clarify POD for prohibit_returned_lexicals to make clear (I hope)
    that it applies to 'state' varables as well as 'my' variables, but
    does NOT detect or handle implicit returns.

    allow_state_in_expression now accepts post-increment and -decrement.
    Thanks to Olaf Alders for finding this.

    Try to collect variable uses from signatures.  Thanks to Olaf Alders
    for pointing out this issue.

    Tweak 'provides' and 'no_index' metadata.

    Correct generation of 'provides' metadata. Thanks to Favio Poletti
    for blogging
    https://github.polettix.it/ETOOBUSY/2021/06/15/the-real-pause-workaround/,
    and ultimately to Joel Berger for the pointer to
    https://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN::Meta::Spec#no_index

    Optionally check variable in catch(). This is controlled by the
    check_catch configuration item, which is off by default.

    Get prerequisites up to snuff, and add xt/author/prereq.t to ensure
    they stay that way.

    Add rt.cpan.org back to bug reporting methods. Long live RT!

    Add Travis CI testing.

    Use GitHub as bug tracker. R.I.P. rt.cpan.org.

    Add POD section AVOIDING UNUSED VARIABLES. Thanks to Ben Martin for
    the suggestion.

    Make documented build dependencies nearer to reality.

    Dig out variables declared inside strings e.g. "foo@{[ my $bar ]}"

    Find variables declared in passing.  That is, things like
    Readonly::Scalar my $answer => 42; which do not get parsed by PPI as
    a PPI::Statement::Variable.

    Pick up $y in '( my $x, my $y )'. The previous code picked up only
    the variables declared before the first comma in the
    PPI::Statement::Variable.

    Refactor handling of derived PPI documents.

    Refactor the recording of symbol declarations and uses.

    examples/unused-vars is now driven by options on the command line,
    not by a configuration file.

    No longer recommend Readonly::XS. Thanks to Jay Kahrman for pointing
    out that this was no longer appropriate.

0.104		2019-12-23	T. R. Wyant
    Add Boolean configuration item allow_state_in_expression, which
    allows an otherwise-unused state variable if the policy thinks the
    computed value is also used in an expression. This item is false by
    default.

    Test POD links.

    Fix for() list and my():

    The iterator variable (if any) for a for() or foreach() is not
    in-scope as seen from the list. This is an issue for code like
    for my $x ( @{ $x } ) {...}

    The variable specified by my() is not in-scope as seen from the
    right-hand side of an assignment (if any). This is an issue for
    my $x = $x

    Thanks to Heinz Knutzen for finding these.

    Remove 'mailto' bugtracker metadata Its presence appears to tell RT
    not to allow filings.

0.100		2016-07-06	T. R. Wyant
  Refactor the logic that discovers which variables are interpolated
    into double-quotish strings into PPIx::QuoteLike. This does not
    include regular expressions, which are already handled by
    PPIx::Regexp.

  Survive variable declarations that declare nothing. These can appear
    if (e.g.) PPI mis-parses an attribute list, and that attribute list
    contains something like 'Arg(state)'.

  Allow 'return ( my $x = 0 )'

    This construction can be used to return a temporary value from an lvalue
    subroutine. The case 'return my $x = 0' is equivalent, but was not
    recognized as defining a variable. Now both are recognized and accepted
    by default.

    If you want to reject these, there is a new Boolean configuration item,
    prohibit_returned_lexicals.

  Improve performance on really, really long strings This was done by
    rewriting the regular expression that finds interpolations to
    minimize backtracking.

  Required Perl::Critic version 1.119, since its scope computation is
    adequate for our needs. Got rid of our own scope computation code.

  Converted Changes file to CPAN::Changes::Spec format.

  Initial production release.
