Supported Release 4.2.1
This release introduces the conversion of the module to use PDK 1.3.2, along with the addition of rubocop with associated fixes.
- All changes in this release are for enabling rubocop, alongside the module then being converted over to the PDK.

- Rubocop has been implemented.
- SLES 10, Windows 2003 R2 and OSX 10.9 removed as supported.
- OSX 10.10 and 10.11 added as supported.
This release is a rollup of changes. The most notable change being the addition of the 'format' attribute which allows output in JSON and YAML formats, and the 'force' attribute which if true forces a merge of duplicate keys for these formats.
- Format and force attributes added.
- Deprecated is_string in favour of puppet language.
- End of Life Ubuntu releases removed as supported.
- Debian 9 added and Debian 6 removed as supported.
- (MODULES-4359) Fix native types so they can be used directly.

This double release adds new Puppet 4 data types. The 3.0.0 release is fully backwards compatible to existing Puppet 4 configurations and provides you with deprecation warnings for every argument that will not work as expected with the final 4.0.0 release. See the stdlib docs for an in-depth discussion of this.
If you're still running Puppet 3, remain on the latest puppetlabs-concat 2.x release for now, and see the documentation to upgrade to Puppet 4.

This release of concat was 90% written by Joshua Hoblitt, and the module team would like to thank him for the huge amount of work he put into this release.
This module deprecates a bunch of old parameters and usage patterns, modernizes much of the manifest code, simplifies a whole bunch of logic and makes improvements to almost all parts of the module.
The other major feature is windows support, courtesy of luisfdez, with an alternative version of the concat bash script in ruby. We've attempted to ensure that there are no backwards incompatible changes, all users of 1.0.0 should be able to use 1.1.0 without any failures, but you may find deprecation warnings and we'll be aggressively moving for a 2.0 to remove those too.

Many new features and bugfixes in this release, and if you're a heavy concat user you should test carefully before upgrading. The features should all be backwards compatible but only light testing has been done from our side before this release.

sourceandcontentdirectly to file resource, rather than defining resource defaults. - Added -r flag to read so that filenames with \ will be read correctly.
