Description:

This module is forked off of the Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::DAGOLDEN
manpage and modified to suit my own tastes. He did most of the work.

This is a the Dist::Zilla manpage PluginBundle. It is roughly equivalent to
the following dist.ini:

; version provider
[AutoVersion] ; build a version from the date
major = 1

; choose files to include
[GatherDir] ; everything under top dir
exclude_filename = README.pod ; skip this generated file
exclude_filename = META.json ; skip this generated file
exclude_filename = .gitignore ; skip this generated file
exclude_filename = README.PATCHING ; skip this generated file
exclude_filename = perlcritic.rc ; skip this generated file

[PruneCruft] ; default stuff to skip
except = .gitignore
except = README.PATCHING
except = perlcritic.rc
[ManifestSkip] ; if -f MANIFEST.SKIP, skip those, too

; file modifications
[OurPkgVersion] ; add $VERSION = ... to all files
[InsertCopyright ; add copyright at "# COPYRIGHT"
[PodWeaver] ; generate Pod
config_plugin = @MITHALDU ; my own plugin allows Pod::WikiDoc

; generated files
[License] ; boilerplate license
[ReadmeFromPod] ; from Pod (runs after PodWeaver)
[ReadmeAnyFromPod] ; create README.pod in repo directory

is_template = 1
