v0.18.1

• No changes (test release)

v0.18.0

• Removed the PowerShell unzip script, and added unzip functionality to the tar plugin when bsdtar is detected. Windows now comes with bsdtar, so most WIndows users should not notice a change in the file extensions zef can extract on a given system.
• Cleaned up the plugin name being output when using --debug to not show +{anon}.

v0.17.0

• Removed the perl based tar extraction plugin (modern Windows environments have the tar command natively)
• Removed the powershell based fetching plugin (modern Windows environments have the curl command natively)

v0.16.2

• curl.exe and wget.exe (instead of curl and wget) are used to invoke their respective programs on Windows. This allows the curl and wget plugins to work when using PowerShell (which has aliases for curl and wget that don't invoke the actual programs).

v0.16.1

• Made various plugin probe methods thread safe

v0.16.0

• Removed deprecated instantiator for Zef::URI(...)
• Made uri(...) subroutine require :internal export tag
• Deprecate virtually unused --depsonly (use --deps-only)
• Minor code cleanup - removed an unneeded EVAL

v0.15.0

• Cleaned up Zef::Utils::FileSystem and fixed some potential bugs when used differently than the current internal use.
• Made zef search ... case insensitive.
• Disabled ZEF_PLUGIN_DEBUG in CI tests.
• Give a better error message doing zef install $some-path, where $some-path is a directory that doesn't contain a META6.json file.
• Removed support for META.info files.
• Fixed an issue where test (and theoretically also build) phase output was getting duplicated when multiple distributions had output message.

v0.14.6

• zef info ... now uses .find-candidates to query for modules which will make the version shown consistent with what would be installed
• Removed deprecated usage of .flatmap
• Replace various uses of .Slip with .flat

v0.14.5

• Add a by-raku. variant of the existing by-perl. declarative dependency prefix

v0.14.4

• Update appveyor to use Visual Studio 2022 env instead of 2019
• Update README and cli help output to mention all env variables zef understands
