1.62 2025-12-27

- Improved CLI error handling:
  Getopt::Long diagnostics are now captured and re-emitted
  with consistent [USAGE] prefixes and exit code 5,
  preventing raw warnings from leaking to stderr.

1.61 2025-12-27

- Bump version to document the compile-error handling improvements
  for empty pipeline segments in jq-lite CLI queries.

1.60 2025-12-26

- Align jq-lite CLI error handling with documented prefixes and
  exit codes, validating JSON input before execution and treating
  empty query results as success.

1.59 2025-12-26

- Split utility helpers into dedicated parsing, path, and transform
  modules while keeping the main Util loader lightweight.

1.58 2025-12-25

- Parse assignment right-hand sides using the expression evaluator
  so jq variables and expressions resolve correctly when assigning
  new values.
- Pass the jq instance into assignment resolution to allow
  variable-aware evaluation and nested query execution.
- Add a regression test covering assignment from a jq variable.

1.57 2025-12-24

- Add opt-in contains_subset() providing jq-style array subset
  containment (order-insensitive with multiset matching) while
  preserving legacy contains() semantics for arrays.
- Document the new array subset helper and clarify default array
  behavior for contains().
- Cover subset array matching and nested array/object combinations
  with regression tests.

1.56 2025-12-24

- Parse contains/inside arguments as literal JSON values so null
  survives argument parsing and matches null inputs.
- Extend contains/inside containment checks to treat null inputs as
  matching null containers and add coverage for the behavior.

1.55 2025-12-21

- Fix CLI smoke tests to reliably locate and execute jq-lite during
  build and test phases, including AUR and other isolated build
  environments.
- Add CLI smoke tests covering common jq-lite usage patterns.
- Validate and fix SYNOPSIS examples to match tested behavior.
- Confirm correct operation of core filters such as map, sort,
  sort_by, first, keys, and length on arrays and objects.
- Standardize raw-input examples using '-R -s' for split processing.

1.53 2025-12-21 - Rewrite the jq-lite man page with a concise, task-focused summary geared for quick CLI usage.

1.52 2025-12-20 - Add jq-compatible --rawfile CLI option that loads file contents into variables for downstream filters, along with regression tests and documentation updates.
