Changes for version 0.9995 - 2016-07-27

  • Taught the `add` command not to ignore the `--change` option.
  • The `add` command now emits a usage statement when no change name is passed to it.
  • The `add` command now helpfully suggests using the --change option when attempting to add a change with the same name as a target. Thanks to Ivan Nunes for the report!
  • The `tag` command now helpfully suggests using the --tag option when attempting to add a tag with the same name as a target.
  • Added `--global` as an alias for `--user` to the `config` command. This alias benefits the muscle memory of Git users.
  • Added a note for Git users to the `sqitch-revert` documentation, to head off potential confusion with `git revert`. Thanks to Eric Bréchemier for the "time travel" analogy and wording.
  • Fixed an "uninitialized value" error when creating a registry database on Windows. Thanks to Steven C. Buttgereit for the report (Issue #289).
  • Fixed editor selection to prioritize the `core.editor` configuration variable over the `$EDITOR` environment variable. The `$SQITCH_EDITOR` environment variable still trumps all. Thanks to Jim Nasby for the pull request (#296).
  • Added detection of the `$VISUAL` environment variable to Editor selection, prioritzed after the `core.editor` configuration variable and before the `$EDITOR` environment variable. Thanks to Jim Nasby for the pull request (#296).
  • Updated the DateTime code to set the locale via `set_locale()` instead of `set()`, as the latter may actually change the local time unintentionally, and has been deprecated since DateTime v1.04. Thanks to Dave Rolsky for the pull request (#304).
