Changes for version 0.002.0 - 2026-11-04
- Enhancements
- Created a website
- "filesync sync --quiet" prints nothing for a repo where nothing happened, instead of an all-zero summary and transfer line, so a cron job that finds nothing to do stays silent.
- Bug Fixes
- t/locales.t failed its three system-locale subtests on Windows: it passed a multi-line child program to "perl -e", which Windows cut at the first newline, and imported LC_MESSAGES, which Windows' POSIX lacks. The child is now a script file and falls back to LC_CTYPE.
