    directory = releases
    [Git::Check]
    allow_dirty = dist.ini
    allow_dirty = README.pod
    allow_dirty = Changes
    [Git::Commit]
    allow_dirty = dist.ini
    allow_dirty = README.pod
    allow_dirty = Changes
    [Git::Tag]
    [Git::Push]
    push_to = origin
    [Git::Remote::Check]
    remote_name = origin
    branch = master
    remote_branch = master
    [GithubMeta]

There are several options that can change the default configuation, though.

OPTIONS

-remove

This option can be used to remove specific plugins from the bundle. It can be used multiple times.

Obviously, the default is not to remove any plugins.

Example:

    ; Remove these two plugins from the bundle
    -remove = Test::Perl::Critic
    -remove = GithubMeta

version, version_major

This option is used to specify the version of the module. The default is 'auto', which uses the AutoVersion plugin to choose a version number. You can also set the version number manually, or choose 'disable' to prevent this bundle from supplying a version.

Examples:

    ; Use AutoVersion (default)
    version = auto
    version_major = 0
    ; Use manual versioning
    version = 1.14.04
    ; Provide no version, so that another plugin can handle it.
    version = disable

copy_file, move_file

If you want to copy or move files out of the build dir and into the distribution dir, use these two options to specify those files. Both of these options can be specified multiple times.

The most common reason to use this would be to put automatically generated files under version control. For example, Github likes to see a README file in your distribution, but if your README file is auto-generated during the build, you need to copy each newly-generated README file out of its build directory in order for Github to see it.

If you want to include an auto-generated file in your distribution but you don't want to include it in the build, use move_file instead of copy_file.

The default is to move README.pod out of the build dir. If you use move_file in your configuration, this default will be disabled, so if you want it, make sure to include it along with your other move_files.

Example:

    copy_file = README
    move_file = README.pod
    copy_file = README.txt

synopsis_is_perl_code

If this is set to true (the default), then the SynopsisTests plugin will be enabled. This plugin checks the perl syntax of the SYNOPSIS sections of your modules. Obviously, if your SYNOPSIS section is not perl code (case in point: this module), you should set this to false.

Example:

    synopsis_is_perl_code = false

release

This option chooses the type of release to do. The default is 'real,' which means "really upload the release to CPAN" (i.e. load the UploadToCPAN plugin). You can set it to 'fake,' in which case the FakeRelease plugin will be loaded, which simulates the release process without actually doing anything. You can also set it to 'none' if you do not want this module to load any release plugin, in which case your dist.ini file should load a release plugin directly. Any other value for this option will be interpreted as a release plugin name to be loaded.

Examples:

    ; Release to CPAN for real (default)
    release = real
    ; For testing, you can do fake releases
    release = fake
    ; Or you can choose no release plugin
    release = none
    ; Or you can specify a specific release plugin.
    release = OtherReleasePlugin

archive, archive_directory

If set to true, the archive option copies each released version of the module to an archive directory, using the ArchiveRelease plugin. This is the default. The name of the archive directory is specified using archive_directory, which is releases by default.

Examples:

    ; archive each release to the "releases" directory
    archive = true
    archive_directory = releases
    ; Or don't archive
    archive = false

vcs

This option specifies which version control system is being used for the distribution. Integration for that version control system is enabled. The default is 'git', and currently the only other option is 'none', which does not load any version control plugins.

git_remote

This option specifies the primary Git remote for the repository. The default is 'origin'. To disable all Git remote operations, set this to an empty string.

git_branch, git_remote_branch

This option specifies the branch that is to be checked against its remote. The default is 'master'. The second option, git_remote_branch, is only needed if the remote branch has a different name. It will default to being the same as git_branch.

no_check_remote

By default, the Git branch git_branch will be checked against the remote branch git_remote_branch at the remote specified by git_remote using the Git::Remote::Check plugin. If the remote branch is ahead of the local branch, the release process will be aborted. This option disables the check, allowing a release to happen even if the check would fail. This option has no effect if either git_remote or git_branch is set to an empty string.

no_push

By default, the Git repo will be pushed to the remote specified by git_remote after every release, to ensure that the remote repository contains the latest release. To disable pushing after a release, set this option. This option has no effect if git_remote is set to an empty string.

allow_dirty

This corresponds to the option of the same name in the Git::Check and Git::Commit plugins. Briefly, files listed in allow_dirty are allowed to have changes that are not yet committed to git, and during the release process, they will be checked in (committed).

The default is dist.ini, Changes, and README.pod. If you override the default, you must include these files manually if you want them.

This option only has an effect if vcs is 'git'.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

This module should be more configurable. Suggestions welcome.
