SYNOPSIS

     # in dist.ini
     [@NGLENN]

DESCRIPTION

   This is a Dist::Zilla PluginBundle. It is roughly equivalent to the
   following dist.ini:

     ; version provider
     [RewriteVersion] ; also munges

     ; collect contributors list
     [Git::Contributors]

     ; choose files to include
     [Git::GatherDir]         ; everything from git ls-files
     exclude_filename = README.mkdn  ; skip this generated file
     exclude_filename = Makefile.PL  ; skip this generated file
     exclude_filename = cpanfile     ; skip this generated file

     [PruneCruft]        ; default stuff to skip
     [ManifestSkip]      ; if -f MANIFEST.SKIP, skip those, too

     ; file modifications
     [InsertCopyright    ; add copyright at "# COPYRIGHT"
     [PodWeaver]         ; generate Pod
     config_plugin = @NGLENN ; my own plugin allows Pod::WikiDoc
     replacer = replace_with_comment
     post_code_replacer = replace_with_nothing

     ; generated files
     [License]           ; boilerplate license
     [ReadmeFromPod]     ; from Pod (runs after PodWeaver)
     [InstallGuide]      ; installation guide
     [TravisYML]         ; Travis-CI configuration
     build_branch = master
     ; t tests
     [Test::ReportPrereqs]   ; show prereqs in automated test output

     ; xt tests
     [Test::MinimumVersion]  ; xt/release/minimum-version.t
     max_target_perl = 5.010 ; don't use syntax/features past 5.10
     [Test::PodSpelling] ; xt/author/pod-spell.t
     [Test::Perl::Critic]; xt/author/critic.t
     [MetaTests]         ; xt/release/meta-yaml.t
     [PodSyntaxTests]    ; xt/release/pod-syntax.t
     [PodCoverageTests]  ; xt/release/pod-coverage.t
     [Test::Portability] ; xt/release/portability.t (of file name)
     options = test_one_dot = 0
     [Test::Version]     ; xt/release/test-version.t
     [Test::Compile]     ; xt/author/00-compile.t
     fake_home = 1       ; fakes $ENV{HOME} just in case
     xt_mode = 1         ; make sure all files compile

     ; metadata
     [AutoPrereqs]       ; find prereqs from code
     skip = ^t::lib

     [Authority]
     authority = cpan:NGLENN
     do_munging = 0

     [MinimumPerl]   ; determine minimum perl version

     [MetaNoIndex]       ; sets 'no_index' in META
     directory = t
     directory = xt
     directory = examples
     directory = corpus
     package = DB        ; just in case

     [GithubMeta]        ; set META resources
     remote = origin
     remote = github
     issues = 1

     [MetaProvides::Package] ; add 'provides' to META files
     meta_noindex = 1        ; respect prior no_index directives

     [Prereqs::AuthorDeps]   ; add authordeps as develop/requires
     [MetaYAML]              ; generate META.yml (v1.4)
     [MetaJSON]              ; generate META.json (v2)
     [CPANFile]              ; generate cpanfile

     ; build system
     [ExecDir]           ; include 'bin/*' as executables
     [ShareDir]          ; include 'share/' for File::ShareDir
     [MakeMaker]         ; create Makefile.PL
     eumm_version = 6.17
     default_jobs = 9

     ; manifest (after all generated files)
     [Manifest]          ; create MANIFEST

     ; copy cpanfile back to repo dis
     [CopyFilesFromBuild]
     copy = Makefile.PL

     ; before release

     [PromptIfStale]     ; check if our build tools are out of date
     module = Dist::Zilla
     module = Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::NGLENN
     check_all_plugins = 1

     [Git::Check]        ; ensure all files checked in
     allow_dirty = dist.ini
     allow_dirty = Changes
     allow_dirty = cpanfile

     [CheckMetaResources]     ; ensure META has 'resources' data
     [CheckPrereqsIndexed]    ; ensure prereqs are on CPAN
     [CheckChangesHasContent] ; ensure Changes has been updated

     [RunExtraTests]   ; ensure xt/ tests pass
     default_jobs = 9

     [TestRelease]       ; ensure t/ tests pass
     [ConfirmRelease]    ; prompt before uploading

     ; releaser
     [UploadToCPAN]      ; uploads to CPAN

     ; after release
     [Git::Commit / Commit_Dirty_Files] ; commit Changes (as released)

     [Git::Tag]          ; tag repo with custom tag
     tag_format = release-%v


     ; NextRelease acts *during* pre-release to write $VERSION and
     ; timestamp to Changes and  *after* release to add a new {{$NEXT}}
     ; section, so to act at the right time after release, it must actually
     ; come after Commit_Dirty_Files but before Commit_Changes in the
     ; dist.ini.  It will still act during pre-release as usual

     [NextRelease]
     [BumpVersionAfterRelease]

     [Git::Commit / Commit_Changes] ; commit Changes (for new dev)

     [Git::Push]         ; push repo to remote
     push_to = origin

     [GitHub::UploadRelease] ; upload release to tag on GitHub

   This distribution was forked from the DAGOLDEN plugin bundle. The
   abstract should really be "Dist::Zilla configuration the way NGLENN,
   who does it the way DAGOLDEN does it, does it", but that was too long.
   I struggled with many complexities of writing a good dist.ini, but
   found that David Golden had solved all of them.

   I tweaked it slightly to fit my needs, most importantly to make
   everything work on Windows. I will probably continue to pull changes
   made to the originating DAGOLDEN distribution. See the changes file for
   more information.

USAGE

   To use this PluginBundle, just add it to your dist.ini. You can provide
   the following options:

   When running without git, GatherDir is used instead of Git::GatherDir.
   and all git check and commit operations are disabled.

   By default, versions are taken/rewritten in the source file using
   RewriteVersion and BumpVersionAfterRelease. If the auto_version option
   is true, the version is set by AutoVersion and munged with PkgVersion.
   For auto_version the generated cpanfile is copied to the repo on build;
   otherwise, Makefile.PL is copied.

   This PluginBundle now supports ConfigSlicer, so you can pass in options
   to the plugins used like this:

     [@NGLENN]
     Test::MinimumVersion.max_target_perl = 5.014
     ExecDir.dir = scripts

   This PluginBundle also supports PluginRemover, so dropping a plugin is
   as easy as this:

     [@NGLENN]
     -remove = Test::Portability
