29 - Clean up recursion errors

31 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
33 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
34 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended (t0m)
36 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
37 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
38 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
39 tries to chain to itself (t0m)
41 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
42 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
43 - Tests for this (radek)
44 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
45 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
46 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
47 - Tests for this (radek)
48 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
49 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
50 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)

65 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
66 - Tests for this (t0m)
67 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
68 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
69 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)

74 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)

90 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
91 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate

132 it isn't a hashref (t0m)

308 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
309 throw warnings for two reasons:
310 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
311 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance

314 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
315 method with a regex as the argument

358 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
