Hello,
I’m running into an issue with the perl cookbook, which, when installing the cpanm file, overflows my scroll back with the size of the diff outputted. Is there a configuration setting to suppress diffs of this length?
Thank you!

I'll see about getting this added to the docs.

              Thank you so much, Daniel - reducing this by a factor of 10 has made this substantially easier to read.
Thank you!
