NEW BUILD SYSTEM!
This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary,
including cross-compilation for some targets.
As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from
an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa
Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux
x86_64 only
Follow up items:
- praxis for version and dependency bumping
- windows 💀
- full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to)
- update help and API metadata files
- installation into a $PREFIX
- more tests and linters
Problem:
virtual_text diagnostics are great when skimming a file, and
virtual_lines are great when "zooming in" on a particular problem.
Having both enabled results in duplicate diagnostics on-screen.
Solution:
This PR expands the behavior of `current_line` for virtual_text and
virtual_lines by making `virtual_text.current_line = false` distinct
from `nil`. If you set:
vim.diagnostic.config({
virtual_text = { current_line = false },
virtual_lines = { current_line = true },
})
With this configuration, virtual_text will be used to display
diagnostics until the cursor reaches the same line, at which point they
will be hidden and virtual_lines will take its place.
Problem:
Directories that are "trusted" by `vim.secure.read()`, are not detectable later
(they will prompt again). https://github.com/neovim/neovim/discussions/33587#discussioncomment-12925887
Solution:
`vim.secure.read()` returns `true` if the user trusts a directory.
Also fix other bugs:
- If `f:read('*a')` returns `nil`, we treat that as a successful read of
the file, and hash it. `f:read` returns `nil` for directories, but
it's also documented as returning `nil` "if it cannot read data with the
specified format". I reworked the implementation so we explicitly
treat directories differently. Rather than hashing `nil` to put in the
trust database, we now put "directory" in there explicitly*.
- `vim.secure.trust` (used by `:trust`) didn't actually work for
directories, as it would blindly read the contents of a netrw buffer
and hash it. Now it uses the same codepath as `vim.secure.read`, and
as a result, works correctly for directories.
Problem: UIs implementing ext_cmdline/message must also implement
ext_popupmenu in order to get cmdline completion with
wildoptions+=pum.
Solution: Allow marking a window as the ext_cmdline window through
nvim_open_win(), including prompt offset. Anchor the cmdline-
completion popupmenu to this window.
Problem: Change applied in d3e495ce uses a byte-offset where a virtual
column is expected.
Solution: Set the cursor directly through a <Cmd> mapping, while making
sure the commands are ordered correctly by adding them to the
type-ahead buffer.
Problem:
Default 'statusline' is implemented in C and not representable as
a statusline expression. This makes it hard for user configs/plugins to
extend it.
Solution:
- Change the default 'statusline' slightly to a statusline expression.
- Remove the C implementation.
Problem: We allow setting 'cmdheight' to 0 with ext_messages enabled
since b72931e7. Enabling ext_messages with vim.ui_attach()
implicitly sets 'cmdheight' to 0 for BWC. When non-zero
'cmdheight' is wanted, this behavior make it unnecessarily
hard to keep track of the user configured value.
Solution: Add set_cmdheight to vim.ui_attach() opts table that can be
set to false to avoid setting 'cmdheight' to 0.
Problem:
When a command is not found or not executable, the error message gives
no indication about what command was actually tried.
Solution:
Always append the command name to the error message.
BEFORE:

fix#33445
Problem:
`vim.version.range('>=0.10'):has('0.12.0-dev')` returns false, which is
wrong per semver.
Solution:
`vim.VersionRange:has()` shouldn't have special handling for prereleases
(Why would we need it when `__eq`, `__lt`, `__le` already handle
prereleases?).
Closes#33316
Problem: Currently vim.hl.range only allows one timed highlight.
Creating another one, removes the old one.
Solution: vim.hl.range now returns a timer and a function. The timer
keeps track of how much time is left in the highlight and the function
allows you to clear it, letting the user decide what to do with old
highlights.
Problem:
- `:lua vim.env.<Tab>` does not show completion of environment variables
- Meanwhile, `:let $<Tab>` does show completion of environment variables
Solution:
- Fix it
Problem:
`:lua vim.lsp.c<tab>` does not list vim.lsp.completion in the completion
list after 24cea4c7f7.
Solution:
- Always include `vim.lsp._submodule` keys in candidates.
- Fixes `vim.lsp.c<tab>` -> `vim.lsp.completion`.
- Eager-load `vim.lsp.completion` to get its completion.
- Fixes `vim.lsp.completion.g<tab>` -> `vim.lsp.completion.get`.
Problem: Error messages that cause a vim.ui_attach() namespace to
detach are not visible in the message history. Decoration
provider and vim.ui_attach error messages are dissimilar.
Solution: Emit vim.ui_attach() errors as an actual message in addition
to logging it. Adjust error message format.
Problem: Message kind logic for emitting an error message is convoluted
and still results in emitting an unfinished message earlier than
wanted.
Solution: Ensure emsg_multiline() always sets the kind wanted by the caller
and doesn't isn't unset to logic for emitting the source message.
Caller is responsible for making sure multiple message chunks are
not emitted as multiple events by setting `msg_ext_skip_flush`...
## Problem
The pattern used to match indentation is wrong as can be seen in
```lua
-- current pattern doesn't match starting space
print(vim.inspect((" xyz"):match("(^%s+)%S")))
-- nil
-- instead, it matches characters `^ ` in text
print(vim.inspect(("x^ yz"):match("(^%s+)%S")))
-- "^ "
-- indentation could've been matched by, however not required
print(vim.inspect((" xyz"):match("^(%s+)%S")))
-- " "
```
## Solution
We don't even need to modify `base_indent` at every line. If every line's indentation is calculated by the previous line's indentation (which already has starting indentation) added to the starting indentation, we see that indentation is multiplied on every line.
Hence, we only add the starting line indentation to every line.
Problem:
On Windows, treesitter query files are not recognized as such when
opened from inside their directory, because the full path returned from
fnamemodify(_, ':p') contains backslashes, while the filetype patterns
expect forward slashes.
Solution:
Normalize the result of fnamemodify(_, ':p') before trying to match it
to filetype patterns.

Problem: Unpaired marks are shown with `filter.extmarks == true`, which
should only return visible highlights. Misleading `end_col`
included in `inspect_pos()` for unpaired mark; it is set to
`start_col + 1` which would be a visible highlight, which it is
not. Custom "is_here" filter used to get extmarks overlapping a
position.
Solution: Exclude unpaired highlight extmarks with `filter.extmarks == true`.
Set `end_col` to `start_col` for an unpaired mark. Supply
appropriate arguments to nvim_buf_get_extmarks() to return
overlapping extmarks; exclude marks whose end is at `{row, col}`
with `filter.extmarks == true`.
Problem:
The `lua/` tests dir is for Lua stdlib tests. It is not for anything
that randomly happens to be implemented with Lua.
Solution:
Move `lua/runtime_spec.lua` to `editor/runtime_spec.lua`.
Problem:
Test may fail because it matches a Lua table address, and the following
whitespace may differ depending on the stringified address length:
test/functional/lua/loop_spec.lua:233: Row 3 did not match.
Expected:
|{3: }|
|{9:Error executing callback:} |
|*{9:uv_idle_t: 0x{MATCH:%w+}} |
|{6:Press ENTER or type command to continue}^ |
Actual:
|{3: }|
|{9:Error executing callback:} |
|*{9:uv_idle_t: 0xd4c2820a00} |
|{6:Press ENTER or type command to continue}^ |
Solution:
Match a variable amount of whitespace.
Problem:
Given that `vim.snippet.expand()` sets temporary `<tab>`/`<s-tab>`
keymaps there is no way to build "smart-tab" functionality where `<tab>`
chooses the next completion candidate if the popup menu is visible.
Solution:
Set the keymap permanent in `_defaults`.
The downside of this approach is that users of multiple snippet engine's
need to adapt their keymaps to handle all their engines that are in use.
For example:
vim.keymap.set({ 'i', 's' }, "<Tab>", function()
if foreign_snippet.active() then
return "<Cmd>lua require('foreign_snippet').jump()<CR>"
elseif vim.snippet.active({ direction = 1 }) then
return "<Cmd>lua vim.snippet.jump(1)<CR>"
else
return key
end
end, { expr = true })
Upside is that using `vim.keymap.set` to override keymaps is a well
established pattern and `vim.snippet.expand` calls made by nvim itself
or plugins have working keymaps out of the box.

Problem: yi' don't highlight last character since
8ce504820a.
Solution: Always use `opts.inclusive=true`, since calculation of `"]`
(`b_op_end`) have taken `inclusive` into account.
When multiple diagnostics appear on a single line, the virtual lines for
all diagnostics except the first were rendered with progressively fewer
columns.
**Problem:** Some weird languages have different comment syntax
depending on the location in the code, and we do not have a way to
determine the correct `commentstring` for these special cases.
**Solution:** Allow queries to specify `commentstring` values in
metadata, allowing users/`nvim-treesitter` to provide a better
commenting experience without hugely increasing the scope of the code in
core.
Problem: Sourcing buffer lines is too complicated.
Solution: Simplify the code. Make it possible to source Vim9 script lines.
(Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#9974)

This commit changes the behavior of sourcing buffer lines to always have
a script ID, although sourcing the same buffer always produces the same
script ID.
vim-patch:9.1.0372: Calling CLEAR_FIELD() on the same struct twice
Problem: Calling CLEAR_FIELD() on the same struct twice.
Solution: Remove the second CLEAR_FIELD(). Move the assignment of
cookie.sourceing_lnum (zeertzjq).

Problem:
Indenting text is a common task in plugins/scripts for
presentation/formatting, yet vim has no way of doing it (especially
"dedent", and especially non-buffer text).
Solution:
Introduce `vim.text.indent()`. It sets the *exact* indentation because
that's a more difficult (and thus more useful) task than merely
"increasing the current indent" (which is somewhat easy with a `gsub()`
one-liner).
Problem: When setting an option, mapping etc. from Lua without -V1, the
script ID is set to SID_LUA even if there already is a script
ID assigned by :source.
Solution: Don't set script ID to SID_LUA if it is already a Lua script.
Also add _editor.lua to ignorelist to make script context more
useful when using vim.cmd().
Problem:
luv callback `vim.uv.new_timer():start(0, 0, function() error() end)`
causes SIGSEGV, since `xstrdup` gets NULL from `lua_tostring`.
Similar to: a5b1b83a26
Solution:
Check NULL before `xstrdup`.
Problem: Error thrown when for invalid line number which may be accessed
in an `on_detach` callback at which point line count is
intentionally set to 0.
Solution: Move empty memline check to before line number check.
Problem:
`vim.tbl_get(tbl, nil, 1)` returns `tbl` itself. In this case, `keys` is not
empty, but `ipairs` skips the iteration:
local keys = { nil, 1 }
assert(#keys == 2)
for i, k in ipairs(keys) do
assert(false, 'unreachable')
end
Solution:
Use `select("#", ...)` and `select(i, ...)` to ensure consistency for count and
iteration.
