=head1 NAME

Stow - manage farms of symbolic links

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    my $stow = new Stow(%$options);

    $stow->plan_unstow(@pkgs_to_unstow);
    $stow->plan_stow  (@pkgs_to_stow);

    my %conflicts = $stow->get_conflicts;
    $stow->process_tasks() unless %conflicts;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is the backend Perl module for GNU Stow, a program for managing
the installation of software packages, keeping them separate
(C</usr/local/stow/emacs> vs. C</usr/local/stow/perl>, for example)
while making them appear to be installed in the same place
(C</usr/local>).

Stow doesn't store an extra state between runs, so there's no danger
of mangling directories when file hierarchies don't match the
database. Also, stow will never delete any files, directories, or
links that appear in a stow directory, so it is always possible to
rebuild the target tree.

=head2 set_stow_dir([$dir])

Sets a new stow directory.  This allows the use of multiple stow
directories within one Stow instance, e.g.

    $stow->plan_stow('foo');
    $stow->set_stow_dir('/different/stow/dir');
    $stow->plan_stow('bar');
    $stow->process_tasks;

If C<$dir> is omitted, uses the value of the C<dir> parameter passed
to the L<new()> constructor.
