Bug #52915 for Test-DistManifest: Incorrect Default Behaviour (when missing MANIFEST.SKIP)

Sat Dec 19 19:21:34 2009 frequency [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Incorrect Default Behaviour (when missing MANIFEST.SKIP)

If your distribution is missing a MANIFEST.SKIP file, then nothing will be skipped -- which is clearly undesirable. This stands in contrast to the Perl method, which defaults to ExtUtils' installed MANIFEST.SKIP (a default file with many VCS directories suitable for most purposes). This requires some changes to both Test::DistManifest and/or the upstream Module::Manifest. Notably, I'd like to implement a way of adding masks to Module::Manifest directly rather than requiring a file to be parsed.
