Comment:
Is filepath supposed to follow the package versioning policy? If it is,
then the new semantics of normalise should have been accompanied by an
increased major version number. To minimise damage you may want to upload
two new copies of filepath: 1.2.0.2 (a copy of 1.2.0.0) and 1.3.0.0 (a
copy of 1.2.0.1).
On a related note, is the following behaviour intended?
{{{
> normalise "/"
"/."
}}}
