=head1 NAME

getcwd - get pathname of current working directory

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Cwd;
    $dir = cwd;

    use Cwd;
    $dir = getcwd;

    use Cwd;
    $dir = fastgetcwd;

    use Cwd 'chdir';
    chdir "/tmp";
    print $ENV{'PWD'};

    use Cwd 'abs_path';
    print abs_path($ENV{'PWD'});

    use Cwd 'fast_abs_path';
    print fast_abs_path($ENV{'PWD'});

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The getcwd() function re-implements the getcwd(3) (or getwd(3)) functions
in Perl.

The abs_path() function takes a single argument and returns the
absolute pathname for that argument. It uses the same algorithm as
getcwd(). (actually getcwd() is abs_path("."))

The fastcwd() function looks the same as getcwd(), but runs faster.
It's also more dangerous because it might conceivably chdir() you out
of a directory that it can't chdir() you back into.  If fastcwd
encounters a problem it will return undef but will probably leave you
in a different directory.  For a measure of extra security, if
everything appears to have worked, the fastcwd() function will check
that it leaves you in the same directory that it started in. If it has
changed it will C<die> with the message "Unstable directory path,
current directory changed unexpectedly". That should never happen.

The fast_abs_path() function looks the same as abs_path(), but runs faster.
And like fastcwd() is more dangerous.

The cwd() function looks the same as getcwd and fastgetcwd but is
implemented using the most natural and safe form for the current
architecture. For most systems it is identical to `pwd` (but without
the trailing line terminator).

It is recommended that cwd (or another *cwd() function) is used in
I<all> code to ensure portability.

If you ask to override your chdir() built-in function, then your PWD
environment variable will be kept up to date.  (See
L<perlsub/Overriding Builtin Functions>.) Note that it will only be
kept up to date if all packages which use chdir import it from Cwd.
