    Description copied from interface: Matcher
    
    Return if the matcher will match *only* if the expression equals the input. WARN: This is used only as a performance trick, to avoid scanning for things when you already know exactly what you want. In the install task where it used it avoid scanning the repository to list all modules to find that only one matches, and that it has the name requested.

    isExact in interface Matcher
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the matcher only matches when the expression is equals to the input, false otherwise.
