Ignores Monotone's _MTN directories.
Added .xsl to the list of --xml files.

[FIXES]
--man and --version now return with an exit code of 0. They
used to exit with a 1. Thanks to Bo Borgerson.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
The --ignore-dir option now can ignore entire paths relative
to your current directory. Thanks to Nick Hooey. For example:
ack --ignore-dir=t/subsystem/test-data
Added --invert-file-match switch to negate the sense of the
-g/-G switches. Thanks, Lars Dieckow.
1.93_01 Sun Sep 5 16:00:29 CDT 2010
[FILE TYPE UPDATES]
Added --verilog, --vhdl and --clojure.
Files that match *.mk and *.mak as well as GNUmakefile are now included in
the ack filetype 'make' (issue 88).
Added RSpec's .spec type to the --ruby list.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
Updated the README to Markdown format. Thanks to Mark Szymanski
for the idea.
Added docs for -r, -R, --recurse options.
Added new switch --color-lineno and environment variable ACK_COLOR_LINENO,
which allow setting the line number color. (Marq Schneider)
Added option --show-types to output the types that ack considers
a file to have. (Torsten Blix)
'ack --count --no-filename regex' doesn't output a list of numbers but a
sum of all occurences. This is NOT what grep does but is the more sensible
behavior.
[FIXES]
Fixed ack misbehavior when using --match or not specifying a regex:
ack --match Sue
cat foo | ack --perl
Fixed issue 74: analog to grep, 'ack --count regex file' now
only outputs the number of found matches, if only one file is
given.
Fixed issue 76: Giving both --line and a regex (with --match)
now leads to an error. The same is true for -f or -g in conjunction
with --match. (Torsten Blix)
Fixed issue 80: Piping into ack --count now works as expected.
ack always returned 0 when piped into, no matter how many matches
where found. (Torsten Blix)
Fixed issue 81: .ackrc now ignores leading/trailing whitespace.
(Torsten Blix)
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

ack is now hosted at github: http://github.com/petdance/ack
[FIXES]
The --pager flag would not work. Now it does. Thanks Packy
Anderson.
File matching for Emacs work files that match #*# was wrong.
It was checking the entire path, not just the basename. This
is fixed. (http://github.com/petdance/ack/issues/closed/#issue/101)
Fixed URLs that pointed to old Google Code.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
Added Scala support. Thanks to Dan Sully.
Added .phtml as an extension for PHP.
Using -f or -g now return a proper error code. If files are
found, ack returns 0. If none are found, ack returns 1. This
is a change in the specification, but the code didn't match the
specfication anyway.
No man pages are created for any of the .pm files any more.
Collection.
Ack is designed as a replacement for 99% of the uses of grep. Ack
is intelligent about the files it searches and the directories trees
it should not descend into.
