Hiera 1.0.0rc2 is a feature release candidate designed to accompany
Puppet 3.0. Hiera 1.0.0rc1 was not released due to a bug that was
found before release.
The major changes since 0.3.0 include caching for the yaml backend,
merging of puppet parser functions, and ruby 1.9.3 support.
## Yaml Backend Caching ##
Commit caching on YAML Backend
Previously, the YAML backend would read from disk every time it needed
to check a hierarchy. This commit introduces memoization through an
instance variable so a file is read only if the instance variable is
empty, and only if the file has not changed. To check if the file has
changed (or if the cache is stale), we stat the file and compare the
mtime, size, and inode. Tests have been added for this new
functionality.
## Hiera-puppet Function Merge ##
(#14460) Add Puppet parser functions

* hiera
* hiera_array
