Merge branch 'ab/perl-fixes'
Clean-up to various pieces of Perl code we have. * ab/perl-fixes: perl Git::LoadCPAN: emit better errors under NO_PERL_CPAN_FALLBACKS Makefile: add NO_PERL_CPAN_FALLBACKS knob perl: move the perl/Git/FromCPAN tree to perl/FromCPAN perl: generalize the Git::LoadCPAN facility perl: move CPAN loader wrappers to another namespace perl: update our copy of Mail::Address perl: update our ancient copy of Error.pm git-send-email: unconditionally use Net::{SMTP,Domain} Git.pm: hard-depend on the File::{Temp,Spec} modules gitweb: hard-depend on the Digest::MD5 5.8 module Git.pm: add the "use warnings" pragma Git.pm: remove redundant "use strict" from sub-package perl: *.pm files should not have the executable bit

+=head1 MESSAGE HANDLERS
+
+C<Error> also provides handlers to extend the output of the C<warn()> perl
+function, and to handle the printing of a thrown C<Error> that is not caught
+or otherwise handled. These are not installed by default, but are requested
+using the C<:warndie> tag in the C<use> line.
+
+ use Error qw( :warndie );
+
+These new error handlers are installed in C<$SIG{__WARN__}> and
+C<$SIG{__DIE__}>. If these handlers are already defined when the tag is
+imported, the old values are stored, and used during the new code. Thus, to
+arrange for custom handling of warnings and errors, you will need to perform
+something like the following:
+
+ BEGIN {
+ $SIG{__WARN__} = sub {
+ print STDERR "My special warning handler: $_[0]"
+ };
+ }
+
+ use Error qw( :warndie );
+
+Note that setting C<$SIG{__WARN__}> after the C<:warndie> tag has been
+imported will overwrite the handler that C<Error> provides. If this cannot be
+avoided, then the tag can be explicitly C<import>ed later
+
+ use Error;
+
+ $SIG{__WARN__} = ...;
+
+ import Error qw( :warndie );
+
+=head2 EXAMPLE
+
+The C<__DIE__> handler turns messages such as
+
+ Can't call method "foo" on an undefined value at examples/warndie.pl line 16.
+
+into
+
+ Unhandled perl error caught at toplevel:
+
+ Can't call method "foo" on an undefined value
+
+ Thrown from: examples/warndie.pl:16
+
+ Full stack trace:
+
+ main::inner('undef') called at examples/warndie.pl line 20
+ main::outer('undef') called at examples/warndie.pl line 23
+
+=cut
+
+=head1 SEE ALSO
+
+See L<Exception::Class> for a different module providing Object-Oriented
+exception handling, along with a convenient syntax for declaring hierarchies
+for them. It doesn't provide Error's syntactic sugar of C<try { ... }>,
+C<catch { ... }>, etc. which may be a good thing or a bad thing based
+on what you want. (Because Error's syntactic sugar tends to break.)
+
+L<Error::Exception> aims to combine L<Error> and L<Exception::Class>
+"with correct stringification".
+
+L<TryCatch> and L<Try::Tiny> are similar in concept to Error.pm only providing
+a syntax that hopefully breaks less.

+Git::LoadCPAN - Wrapper for loading modules from the CPAN (OS) or Git's own copy

+
+The Perl code in Git depends on some modules from the CPAN, but we
+don't want to make those a hard requirement for anyone building from
+source.
+
+Therefore the L<Git::LoadCPAN> namespace shipped with Git contains
+wrapper modules like C<Git::LoadCPAN::Module::Name> that will first
+attempt to load C<Module::Name> from the OS, and if that doesn't work
+will fall back on C<FromCPAN::Module::Name> shipped with Git itself.
+
+Usually distributors will not ship with Git's Git::FromCPAN tree at
+all via the C<NO_PERL_CPAN_FALLBACKS> option, preferring to use their
+own packaging of CPAN modules instead.
+
+This module is only intended to be used for code shipping in the
+C<git.git> repository. Use it for anything else at your peril!

+Git needs this Perl module from the CPAN, and will by default ship
+with a copy of it. This Git was built with NO_PERL_CPAN_FALLBACKS,
+meaning that whoever built it promised to provide this module.
+
+You're seeing this error because they broke that promise, and we can't
+load our fallback version, since we were asked not to install it.
+
+If you're seeing this error and didn't package Git yourself the
+package you're using is broken, or your system is broken. This error
+won't appear if Git is built without NO_PERL_CPAN_FALLBACKS (instead
+we'll use our fallback version of the module).
