dh-dist-zilla (1.3.6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix clean target (and possibly other targets) under non-existing $HOME
    by changing "local $ENV{DZIL_GLOBAL_CONFIG_ROOT}" back to just
    "$ENV{DZIL_GLOBAL_CONFIG_ROOT}". Regression introduced in release
    1.3.5. (Closes: #880837)
  * Add a .perlcriticrc to exclude the rule which led to this regression
    as well as the only level 3 rule which is left. (Carping doesn't make
    much sense in commandline applications.)

dh-dist-zilla (1.3.4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Let dh_dist_zilla_origtar run "dzil clean" first by default. Avoids to
    get artifacts from previous, potentially manual builds included in the
    tar ball. (Use option --no-clean to get previous behaviour.)

  * Drop usage of deprecated Getopt::Mixed. Use Getopt::Long from the
    perl-base package instead. (GH #2)
    + Remove any package relations to libgetopt-mixed-perl.
  * dh-dzil-refresh:
    + Bail out immediately if no dist.ini is found
    + Use Getopt::Long's auto_help and Pod::Usage for --help. (GH #3)
    + Improve SYNOPSIS so it's more helpful for --help.
  * Use https:// in debian/copyright format specification.

    vcs-field-uses-insecure-uri.
  * Add new debian/debhelper-build-stamp to .gitignore.
