Subject: write_file() should return true on success / please document return value of write_file()

From: Axel Beckert <abe [...] deuxchevaux.org>
Hi, I've tried to switch from File::Slurp to File::::Tiny and it failed in a situation like this: use Test::More; ok( write_file('/tmp/foo', foo), 'Write foo to foo'); File::Slurp::Tiny's write_file() does seem to return false in that case. Actually this ticket are two related requests: * write_file() should return true on success as File::Slurp's write_file() does. File::Slurp's documentation says "By default "write_file" returns 1 upon successfully writing the file or undef if it encountered an error." * The return value of write_file() is not documented in POD. Please add it to the documentation. Please tell me if I should rather report such cases as two separate issues in the future.
