+ Add a --fullpath option to Dialyzer</p>
+ <p>
+ This change adds a --fullpath option to Dialyzer, which
+ makes the warning messages contain the full path of the
+ corresponding file.</p>
+ <p>
+ Original patch submitted by Magnus Henoch (legoscia) on
+ 15/9/2010 and cooked to death in the 'pu' branch all this
+ time.</p>
+ <p>
+ The patch was essentially correct and most of it has been
+ used as is, but there have been some changes to make the
+ code slightly prettier, avoid some code duplication, and
+ add documentation to dialyzer's doc files and to its help
+ message.</p>

+ <p>
+ Fix warnings about guards containing not</p>
+ <p>
+ The wording of warnings about unsatisfiable guards that
+ used 'not' was incorrect (the 'not' was not mentioned and
+ it appeared as "Guard test is_atom(atom()) can never
+ succeed") (thanks to Stavros Aronis).</p>

+ Version 2.4.2 (in Erlang/OTP R14B02)
+ ------------------------------------ - Added --fullpath
+ option to display files with warnings with their full
+ file names (thanks to Magnus Henoch for the original
+ patch). - Better handling of 'and'/'or'/'not' guards that
+ generate warnings (thanks to Stavros Aronis). - Better
+ blame assignment for cases when a function's spec is
+ erroneous (thanks to Stavros Aronis). - More descriptive
+ warnings when a tuple/record pattern contains subterms
+ that violate the declared types of record fields (thanks
+ to Matthias Lang for the test case and for Stavros Aronis
+ for the actual fix).</p>

+ Test suites for Dialyzer</p>
+ <p>
+ This is a transcription of most of the
+ cvs.srv.it.uu.se:/hipe repository dialyzer_tests into
+ test suites that use the test server framework.</p>
+ <p>
+ See README for information on how to use the included
+ scripts for modifications and updates.</p>
+ <p>
+ When testing Dialyzer it's important that several OTP
+ modules are included in the plt. The suites takes care of
+ that too.</p>
