This is a minor update to add the lib/prompt and lib/existence modules that import functionality from the first draft of the mbland/certbot-webroot-setup project.

The ./go script: a unified development environment interface

Source: https://github.com/mbland/go-script-bash

A ./go script aims to abstract away many of the steps needed to develop (and sometimes deploy) a software project. It is a replacement for READMEs and other documents that may become out-of-date, and when maintained properly, should provide a cohesive and discoverable interface for common project tasks.

The ./go script idea came from Pete Hodgson's blog posts In Praise of the ./go Script: Part I and Part II.

Note: The ./go script concept is completely unrelated to the Go programming language, though the Go language's go command encapsulates many common project functions in a similar fashion.

What's new in this release

All of the issues and pull requests for this release are visible in the v1.5.0 milestone.

lib/prompt module

The new lib/prompt module contains several new user input prompt functions. Also, @go.select_option has been moved from go-core.bash to the lib/prompt module. The new ./go demo-core prompt command demonstrates most of the new user prompt behavior.

lib/existence module

The new lib/existence module contains convenience functions for checking whether a file or command exists and is accessible on the system, and provides standard error reporting if not.

@go.trim added to lib/strings

@go.trim trims leading and trailing whitespace from strings, and supports the parsing of user input data in functions from the lib/prompt module.

Bug fixes

Just one this time: ./go new --test now outputs load environment correctly for top-level tests within _GO_TEST_DIR (#171, #172).
