Release v2.0.0

• Added: follow_symlink keyword argument
  to audeer.path()
  with default value False
• Added: follow_symlink keyword argument
  to audeer.rmdir()
  with default value True
• Changed: audeer.path() does no longer
  uses os.path.realpath(),
  but os.path.abspath().
  This means it does no longer convert symlinks
  to the real path,
  but returns the path to the symlink.
  This provides a speed up of audeer.path()
  up to 6x
  as it no longer requires a disk operation.
  The old behavior of audeer.path()
  can be achieved by calling
  audeer.path(..., follow_symlink=True).
  The output of the following functions
  is also affected by this change
  if a symlink is part of their input path:
  audeer.common_directory(),
  audeer.download_url(),
  audeer.list_dir_names(),
  audeer.list_file_names(),
  audeer.mkdir(),
  audeer.touch()
• Changed: the files argument of audeer.create_archive()
  can no longer include symbolic links
  that are located outside of root
• Fixed: audeer.basename_wo_ext(),
  audeer.file_extension(),
  and audeer.replace_file_extension()
  are no longer affected by existing files and symlinks,
  but rely only on the provided input string

Release v1.21.0

• Added: audeer.move()
  which can move files and folders
  and should be used instead of audeer.move_file()
• Added: *paths argument to
  audeer.mkdir(),
  audeer.rmdir(),
  and audeer.touch().
  Instead of writing audeer.mkdir(os.path.join('a', 'b')),
  you can now write audeer.mkdir('a', 'b')
