NAME

Task::BeLike::JMATES - modules used by JMATES (testing needs)

SYNOPSIS

  # and likely also set in your ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm:
  #   'prerequisites_policy' => q[follow],
  export PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1

  # install for whatever Perl cpan + environment points to
  cpan Task::BeLike::JMATES

  # test modules on some ancient version of Perl
  unset PERL5LIB PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT PERL_MB_OPT PERL_MM_OPT
  cd perl-5.12.5
  ./Configure -des -Dprefix=$HOME/usr/perl-5.12.5
  make test
  make install
  $HOME/usr/perl-5.12.5/bin/cpan Task::BeLike::JMATES

DESCRIPTION

Modules used by JMATES for testing needs, e.g. ensuring that olden perl can still compile my modules, or to test that dependencies are all golden against a clean install of perl.

HISTORY

See the git repository. To reduce public git log spam, I have adopted the following practices:

  # to merge another commit into the previous
  git commit --amend

  # more extensive work
  #  DO NOT push things that will be rebased!
  git checkout -b blah
  ...
  git commit
  ...
  git commit
  git diff master      # figure out whatall has changed
  git rebase -i master
  # ... and therein make first "reword" and subsequent "squash", and
  #     compose a short summary line, blank line, then longer
  #     description of the changes as the comment
  git checkout master
  git merge blah
  git branch -d blah

And then push master to the world, build a new module release, etc. For more information, consult the excellent "Pro Git" book, as well as the various git(1) manual pages, as these methods may not suit your needs.
