Subject: Where's git-backpan-init?
git-backpan-init is still mentioned (e.g. when running git-cpan import --help), but it's not anymore in the distribution. Also, git-cpan import --backpan does not seem to work, I get a "Unknown option 'backpan'" error. Regards, Slaven

Oops. The doc was not up-to-date. With MetaCPAN providing a transparent interface to CPAN/BackPAN, that option has been deprecated. To get the whole history of Foo::Bar (and you don't want to clone the git repository even if it's available), you can do: git cpan import --norepository Foo::Bar And to only get the import of the latest versin: git cpan import --norepository --latest Foo::Bar
