I went with that recommendation:
- like($@, qr/Cannot find directory\(ies\): $bad_gitdir/,
+ like($@, qr/\QCannot find directory(ies): $bad_gitdir\E/,
Although in a couple of places I had to use the
\Q ... \E syntax twice within one pattern:
- like($@, qr/Cannot find file\(s\) to be tested:.*$bad_target_args
+->[1]/,
+ like($@, qr/\QCannot find file(s) to be tested:\E.*\Q$bad_target_
+args->[1]\E/,
Thanks to all who responded. The revised code is available at
Devel-Git-MultiBisect-0.07.tar.gz and should be available on CPAN within the hour. If anyone on Windows could give that a smoke test, that would be great.
Thank you very much.
