Right. When I was beginning in Perl, I would think nothing of getting a CPAN module and trying it out in my one and only Strawberry installation.

Now, I think first: Hey, what are the chances that this module will lead to a dead-end and clutter up my installation? So, yes, I do treat it like a "production" system now. Or, as Orson Welles said in the Paul Masson commercials: "We will sell no wine before its time."

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    When experimenting with CPAN modules, I sometimes create a git repository in my perl5/lib root. I can then easily switch between different versions and combinations of modules, and just throw away all the changes if I'm not satisfied with the results. (An example was described in my blog).

    ($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-||-|5+lengthSq)`"S|oS2"`map{chr |+ord }map{substrSq`S_+|`|}3E|-|`7**2-3:)=~y+S|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a,

      I read your blog entry. That is an interesting war story.

      *****

      I Googled “git”; https://git-scm.com/ was the first result.

      I Googled “perl git”; http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git was the first result. Up in the upper right-hand corner, there was a git icon with a hyperlink to https://git-scm.com/.

      So, I guess that is the way to start learning and using git.
