spur 0.3.0

0.3.0 - 2026-09-30

Changed

• The runner no longer uses dirname or basename: it depends on sh, awk and cat, nothing else, and exec-minimal-path runs it with only those three on PATH. Paths are split with parameter expansion, which removes about ten processes from every run.
• A run parses the Spurfile once instead of twice, and --check once instead of once per task plus two. Under dash on Windows, a trivial run went from 205 to 99 ms and --check of 50 tasks from 4.5 to 1.9 s.

Added

• CHANGELOG.md, the source of the release notes, and a release process: spur release X.Y.Z prepares the release pull request, and merging it into master tags and publishes the version once CI is green.
