Notes:
Changes:
== Rant 0.4.6
Incompatible changes:
* *Important*: The notation <tt>"#foo"</tt> to reference a task
defined in the project's root directory changed to <tt>"@foo"</tt>.
* Previous Rant versions loaded both, +Rantfile+ and
<tt>Rantfile.rb</tt>, if present. This version will only load one of
them (preferably +Rantfile+).
* +RubyTest+ tasks no longer honour TESTOPTS variable.
Deprecated:
* The filenames <tt>Rantfile.rb</tt> and <tt>rantfile.rb</tt> are
deprecated for rantfiles and won't be recognized by future Rant
versions. Use +Rantfile+, +rantfile+ or <tt>root.rant</tt> instead.
Fixes and minor improvements:
* Fix an issue where a file was unnecessary rebuilt when rant was
started from different directories, the file task was created from a
rule and md5 signatures were used.
* Concise output from Package::Tgz and Package::Zip tasks.
* A manpage will be installed on Linux/Unix systems by the install.rb
script.
* A fix for a FileUtils::Verbose bug in Ruby 1.8.3 which affects some
<tt>sys</tt> methods.
New features:
* The --cd-parent (-c) option to search for an Rantfile in parent
directories.
* The --look-up (-u) option to search for the root Rantfile in parent
directories.
* Recognition of rantfiles with the names <tt>root.rant</tt> and
<tt>sub.rant</tt>, where a <tt>sub.rant</tt> file is meant for a
project subdirectory and is treated special.
Read doc/subdirs.rdoc[link:files/doc/subdirs_rdoc.html]
* The +sys+ and <tt>sys.ruby</tt> methods take an optional block for
custom process exit status handling (per default, Rant aborts if a
subprocess started with +sys+ exits with another status than 0).
