The wildcard usage could fail on some OSes by being passed directly and
just not finding libs and erroring out

This also patches up a problem for hooks when dealing with directories
with spaces in them, and reduces complexity of bootstrap file.

The finding of the file was done based on an assumed 'src' path which
may not be correct. This patch instead replaces the value with a lookup
in configured paths and returns the first that matches to an existing
file.

First find the rebar.config file, and if any data is found, check for
src_dirs config. If nothing is there or no app is found, default to src/

This makes rebar_prv_install_deps able to support more src_dir configs

This lets people who use custom directories layout without leaving the
.app.src in src/ to still see their app build.

Did not really know how to automate the testing for this, did it by
hand.

fixes #1469

Adds a new option `{cover_excl_apps, Apps}` to exclude apps from coverage
analysis by name.

on 19.x forward the compiler should now take into consideration the value
of the environment variable `ERL_COMPILER_OPTIONS` when deciding whether
or not to recompile a module

Instead of a hard crash, display an error message indicating which app
failed.

We can't report the exact failure; only EDoc does it to stdout itself
and we can't capture it.

Pre/Post hooks are run properly despite the failure, as per escript and
compile providers.

and clean up a bit

Requires changing a bunch of arguments for xerocopy since it
does not allow to rename while copying.

Lots of tests added

Fixes issue #880

May break backwards compat with projects that manually called the
dialyzer formatter, but we never documented or expected this to be
exposed.

This allows to reuse the code for any provider that formats source files
out to the user.

The option to configure it does remain compiler-centric for backwards
compatibility

When the `new` command is run from a locally installed rebar3 (`rebar3
local install`), the builtin templates would be labelled as custom
because of directories.

This patch fixes it by splitting off the rebar3 priv dir from the user's
configured plugin path for custom ones, and introducing a new internal
label for builtins (since handling must remain different from escripts)

This fixes issue #819

application modules will be added to the eunit test set automatically, no
need to consider them for inclusion in the test set separately

... before calling erlang:function_exported(ct_testspec,get_tests,1).

stops the eunit provider from filtering out test modules based on the
file extension. previously, it was hardcoded to expect all test files
ended in `.erl`. this change allows for endings like `.lfe` and `.beam`

Parse given test specs and add all spec- and suite directories as
extra_src_dirs in order to ensure that all these directories are
copied to the _build area and the suites are compiled.

Specs located in the project- or app root are explicitly copied to the
_build area in order to avoid recursive copying of the complete
directory tree.

Like for instance: {app, "0.1.0", '='}

The regex mistakenly matched too many files (any character followed by
an underscore) rather than only files starting in '._'

This properly escapes the expressions to work in all cases.

This is a bugfix. It makes sure that the given path to a testspec is
translated so common_test will pick the spec from the _build
directory, and not from the source tree.

This is necessary in order to automatically get the testspec included
as an artifact (i.e. copied to the _build dir) in the case when it is
stored in another directory than 'test'.

The option --single-branch was introduced in git version 1.7.10 and
thus rebar3 cannot fetch git dependencies on systems where earlier
git versions are install.

This commit will select other git clone commands if an earlier git
version is detected. If the git version cannot be determined rebar3
falls back on the previous behavior and uses --single-branch.

a no-op provider that depends on lock that is slightly more discoverable and user friendly

Bug: option 'spec' is not specifically handled when merging options
from the command line with options from rebar.config. Due to this, if
the config specifies a 'spec', then this will take precedence over any
'dir' and/or 'suite' on the command line.

This commit takes special care of all options that can be used to
select tests - meaning that if any of the options 'spec', 'dir',
'suite', 'group' or 'case' are specified on the command line, then all
'spec', 'dir', 'suite', 'group' and 'case' options in rebar.config
will be ignored.

Ensures merged compiler options end up in the correct order to maintain profile precedence.

Moves the merge functionality from rebar_opts:merge_opts/2 to a standalone function to ease extension and debugging.
