Summary

• Remove depends = ["perl"] from the cloc registry entry added in Add cloc to the registry using the GitHub backend #12280.
• Windows installs the standalone cloc-{{ version }}.exe, which already embeds Perl and does not need a Perl interpreter.
• depends is not platform-specific, so that declaration would apply on Windows too. It also does not install Perl; it only orders installs when perl is already in the toolset. Unix/macOS .pl assets still run via #!/usr/bin/env perl against whatever Perl is on PATH.

Test plan

• Confirm registry/cloc.toml no longer declares depends
• On Windows, mise install cloc uses the .exe asset and cloc --version works without mise perl
• On Linux/macOS, cloc --version still works with system Perl

Poem

I nibbled the config, neat and light,
One dependency took flight.
No Perl to track,
A cleaner cloc stack,
Squeak—this patch is just right!

Greptile Summary

This PR removes the global Perl dependency-ordering declaration from the cloc registry entry because Windows uses a standalone executable while Unix assets rely on Perl already available on PATH.

• Removes depends = ["perl"] from the cloc GitHub backend configuration.
• Leaves all platform-specific asset mappings unchanged.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge.

No blocking failure remains.
