NAME
    Pod::Weaver::Plugin::EnsureUniqueSections - Ensure that POD has no
    duplicate section headers.

VERSION
    version 0.103520

SYNOPSIS
    In weaver.ini

        [-EnsureUniqueSections]
        strict = 0 ; The default

DESCRIPTION
    This plugin simply ensures that the POD after weaving has no duplicate
    top-level section headers. This can help you if you are converting a
    dist to Dist::Zilla and Pod::Weaver, and you forgot to remove POD
    sections that are now auto-generated.

    By default, this module does some tricks to detect similar headers, such
    as "AUTHOR" and "AUTHORS". You can turn this off by setting "strict = 1"
    in weaver.ini.

ATTRIBUTES
  strict
    If set to true (1), section headers will only be considered duplicates
    if they match exactly. If false (the default), certain similar section
    headers will be considered equivalent. The following similarities are
    considered (more may be added later):

    All whitespace and punctuation are equivalant
        For example, the following would all be considered duplicates of
        each other: " SEE ALSO", "SEE ALSO", "SEE,ALSO:".

    Case-insensitive
        For example, "Name" and "NAME" would be considered duplicates.

    Sets of words separated by "AND".
        For example, "COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE" would be considered a duplicate
        of "LICENSE AND COPYRIGHT".

    Plurals
        "AUTHOR" and "AUTHORS" are the same section. A section header
        consisting of multiple words, such as "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY", is
        not affected by this rule.

        This rule uses Lingua::EN::Inflect::Number to interconvert between
        singulars and plurals. Hopefully you don't need to make a section
        called "OCTOPI".

    Note that these rules apply recursively, so "Authors; and Contributors"
    would be a duplicate of " CONTRIBUTORS AND AUTHOR".

METHODS
  finalize_document
    This method checks the document for duplicate headers, and throws an
    error if any are found. If no duplicates are found, it simply does
    nothing. It does not modify the POD in any way.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
    I would like to convert this to a Dist::Zilla testing plugin, but I
    haven't yet figured out how to find all files in a dist with POD and
    extract all their headers.

    Please report any bugs or feature requests to
    "rct+perlbug@thompsonclan.org".
