Changes for version 0.172690 - 2017-09-26

  • Fix back-compat bug introduced when dependency Digest::xxHash updated its API recently, wherein one of its methods was removed, causing App::dupfind to fail. Bug fixed. Releasing as a regular dist.

Changes for version 0.140230-TRIAL - 2014-01-22 (TRIAL RELEASE)

  • Fix bug that made older Perls unable to run the executable (versions previous to 5.014 failed)

Changes for version 0.140200-TRIAL - 2014-01-20 (TRIAL RELEASE)

  • App::dupfind is CPAN-ready, at least as a TRIAL dist. It now contains a decent test suite in addition to its script. The documentation may need more finishing touches, but is quite extensive as is.
