cpanm provides for the installation of Perl modules directly from a Git repository, I have been using this with SNMP::Info and perlbrew. This does not work for App::Netdisco because the Makefile is not in the root directory. It would be nice for this to work to make it easier for testing between CPAN releases.

    We can do this, no problem, but I think we'll have to co-ordinate as it will mean removing the Netdisco subdirectory and moving files to the root of the repository.

    Anyone using git will need to know to pull and then chdir upwards.

    It looks like we might be able to get Module::Install to build from a Makefile.PL in the repo root, leaving the code in the Netdisco subdirectory. I'm not sure whether this is worth it - seems it would just confuse matters and we should have a clean repo, to me.

    Quite easy with Module::Install's build_subdirs. Let me know if it doesn't work.
