       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::PruneFiles - prune arbitrary files from the dist

       This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters.  This
       means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to three years.  (That is, if the
       most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version
       will not be increased.  The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
       will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

       Dist::Zilla plugins: PruneCruft, GatherDir, ManifestSkip.

       This plugin allows you to explicitly prune some files from your distribution. You can either specify the
       exact set of files (with the "filenames" parameter) or provide the regular expressions to check (using
       "match").

       This is useful if another plugin (maybe a FileGatherer) adds a bunch of files, and you only want a subset
       of them.

       In your dist.ini:

         [PruneFiles]
         filename = xt/release/pod-coverage.t ; pod coverage tests are for jerks
         filename = todo-list.txt             ; keep our secret plans to ourselves

         match     = ^test_data/
         match     = ^test.cvs$

       version 6.032
