Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Repository - Automatically sets repository URL from svn/svk/Git checkout for Dist::Zilla
version 0.18
# dist.ini
[Repository]
The code is mostly a copy-paste of Module::Install::Repository
This is the name of the remote to use for the public repository (if you use Git). By default, unsurprisingly, to origin.
This attribute is deprecated. If the remote is a GitHub repository, list only the http url (http://github.com/fayland/dist-zilla-plugin-repository) and not the actual clonable url (git://github.com/fayland/dist-zilla-plugin-repository.git). This used to default to true, but as of 0.16 it defaults to false.
The CPAN Meta 2 spec defines separate keys for the clonable url and web front-end web. The Meta 1 specs allowed only 1 URL. If you set github_http to true, the url key will be removed from the v2 metadata, and the v1 metadata will then use the web key.
Instead of setting github_http, you should use the MetaJSON plugin to include a v2 META.json file with both URLs.
You can set this attribute if you want a specific repository instead of the plugin to auto-identify your repository.
An example would be if you're releasing a module from your fork, and you don't want it to identify your fork, so you can specify the repository explicitly.
In the Meta 2 spec, this is the url key.
This should be the (lower-case) name of the most common program used to work with the repository, e.g. git, svn, cvs, darcs, bzr or hg. It's normally determined automatically, but you can override it.
This is a URL pointing to a human-usable web front-end for the repository. Currently, only Github repositories get this set automatically.
