Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GatherFromManifest - gather all files from MANIFEST
version 1.004
[GatherFromManifest]
This is a FileGathererplugin, which allows you to implicitly specify which files should be built into distibution.
This module offers a different approach to default Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GatherDir which adds ALL files to distribution and Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ManifestSkip which prunes files listed in MANIFEST.SKIP.
You should replace [GatherDir] with [GatherFromManifest] and make sure you have a MANIFEST file. It's quite useful if you're converting existing package to Dist::Zilla.
If you plan to use [License], [Readme] or any other module producing autogenerated files, you should remove corresponding file names from MANIFEST to avoid duplication errors.
This is the directory in which to look for files. If not given, it defaults to the dist root -- generally, the place where your dist.ini or other configuration file is located.
This parameter can be set to gather all the files found under a common directory. See the description block in GatherDir documentation for an example.
Overridden method implementing gathering functionality.
