easytest is not actively maintained and requires an old version of
hedgehog which does not support base-compat 0.11 & ghc 8.8.
This is still using the old easytest helpers, and not displaying test
names properly.
This commit introduces the commandline argument -%/--percent to show
percentages of the column's total instead of the absolute amounts for
each account in reports. The signs of the values are preserved.
This option is especially useful for the balance and incomestatement
commands.
If there are multiple commodities involved in a report hledger bails
with an error message. This can be avoided by using --cost. Also note
that if one uses -% with the balance command the chances are high that
all numbers are 0. This is due to the fact that by default balance sums
up to zero. If one wants to use -% in a meaningful way with balance one
has to add a query.
In order to keep the implementation as simple as possible --tree has no
influence over how the percentages are calculated, i.e., the percentages
always represent the fraction of the columns total. If one wants to know
the percentages relative to a parent account, one has to use a query to
narrow down the accounts.
-V (and -X) now respects a report end date set with -e/-p/date: when
choosing the valuation date, similar to hledger 1.14 and Ledger.
This means that -V/-X aren't exactly like either --value=end or
--value=now. The "Effect of --value on reports" doc has been extended
accordingly, and much of it has been reworded and made more accurate.
