Problem:
Giving a window a status line when `'laststatus'` starts requiring one
takes the row from a resizable frame found by walking up the frame
tree, but only the window's own leaf frame is grown back. Every frame
between the leaf and the donor keeps its old height, so a later resize
hands out a row that does not exist and a window's status line ends up
on the command line.
Solution:
Grow the window's frame with `frame_setheight()`, which takes the row
from a neighbouring frame and keeps every enclosing frame consistent.
Problem:
- Explicit `:bcd` (etc.) persists from `nvim_buf_call()` but not from an
autocmd handler targeting a hidden buf (`LspAttach`, `TermRequest`, …),
which needs a `vim.schedule()` workaround.
- `vim._with()` is supposed to work as a "sandbox", discarding
side-effects, but it leaks CWD changes: `:lcd` from a `win` context,
any chdir from a visible-buffer context.
Solution:
- Explicit :cd/:tcd/:bcd during a temp context persists by default.
- "Ambient" directory changes ('autochdir', existing win-local CWD,
etc.) are still undone, as before.
- Add `kCtxKeepDirs`: snapshot/restore the target's full CWD state
(w/b/tp-local, global, cwd). Used by `vim._with()` and `'inccommand'`,
which must not leak state.
Problem: Vim9: true and false not recognized in Vim9 script.
Solution: Recognize true and false.

Problem: Variables in make target lists are highlighted as targets when
the prerequisite list is non-empty.
Solution: Match target lists separately from prerequisite regions so
that contained identifiers are highlighted correctly. Add
regression test.

Problem: After :diffget into an empty buffer, undo does not restore the
empty buffer, the last line stays behind (Narendran
Gopalakrishnan)
Solution: Include the empty line of the empty buffer in the undo
information, it is deleted once the first line was obtained
(Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: ins_compl_add() checks for a duplicate by scanning the whole
match list, making collection of N matches quadratic.
Solution: Look matches up in a hashtab instead; each entry counts the

- Avoid shared state. Pass `focus` to set_pos()/expand_msg() instead of
a shared `pager_focus` flag: the flag is only cleared when set_pos()
actually enters the pager, so ":messages" from inside the pager left
it set.
- pager_shown(): the pager window is invalid after leaving it with "q".
- Reuse pager_shown() in expand_msg().
Problem: A message emitted while a previous expanded message is still
visible opens the pager and enters it, moving focus away from
the buffer window without an explicit request (#41061).
Solution: Only enter the pager when it was explicitly requested ("g<",
:messages, or entered from the expanded cmdline). An unfocused
pager is dismissed by the cmdline key handler, which stays armed
across the cmdline and no longer dismisses on non-typed keys
(#39221).
Problem:
During insert-mode / replace-mode, `autowrite` may trigger. If it does, the
cursor position can shift due to the automatic removal of trailing spaces on the
current line. When I resume typing, the space between the last word and the new
word is suddenly gone.
Solution:
Disable the "remove trailing spaces" handler during Insert (or a similar) mode.
Autosave logic is not affected.
Problem:
With `laststatus=3`, a pager float shares the main grid's statusline
row. Setting a diagnostic fires `DiagnosticChanged`, whose handler calls
`nvim__redraw({ statusline = true })`.
Analysis:
Inside the autocmd, `curwin` is temporarily switched to the tiled window
showing that buffer, so `win_redr_status()` paints its statusline over
the pager's `[Pager]` statusline on the shared row. After the autocmd,
`curwin` is restored but the pager statusline is never repainted.
Solution:
Use `ctx_saved_curwin()` decide whether to draw the global statusline,
matching `win_redr_stl_expr()` and `update_screen()`. No behavior change
if no buffer-context switch is active.
Problem: An OSC 52 sequence from a :terminal job passes the decoded
payload to the clipboard provider as a single list item. Command-line
providers (pbcopy, xclip, ...) receive it with channel semantics, where
a newline inside an item is sent as NUL (:h chansend()), so multiline
copies arrive with NUL bytes instead of newlines.
Solution: Split the payload on newlines into a proper list of lines.
A trailing newline yields a final empty item, which chansend() turns
back into a newline, so payloads round-trip exactly.
Problem: Braces in C compound literals and initializers inside parentheses
and brackets are highlighted as errors.
Solution: Recognize those initializer blocks while preserving syntax recovery
for malformed parentheses.

Problem: A winbar-only window with zero text height still occupies one row,
but win_update() returns early on w_view_height == 0 and skips the
vertical separator.
Solution: Also draw the vertical separator in the early return path.
Problem:
Several subsystems need to derive a short, filesystem-safe identifier from an
arbitrary path, and each reinvents it ad-hoc:
- `'undodir'` and `swapfiles` encode the full path into a single filename, which
may exceed filesystem length-limits.
- `:connect ssh://` needs the SSH ControlPath socket name to stay under the
104-byte `sun_path` limit on macOS; today the path overflows it.
- the upcoming :terminal state dir.
- arbitrary plugin purposes.
Solution:
Provide `vim.fs.slug()`, which generates a bounded, one-way filename from an
arbitrary string. The input is normalized so equivalent paths produce the
same result. An 8-char hash is appended for uniqueness
Problem:
Buffer-local CWD (:bcd) is "sticky", similar to window-local CWD (:lcd).
But this contradicts one of its main benefits: per-buffer "project root"
for LSP, OSC7.
Other problems:
- A buffer created with :edit/:enew/:new silently inherits b_localdir
(and b_prevdir) from the previous buffer.
- curbuf_reusable() refuses to recycle a scratch buffer that has
`b_localdir`.
- After :new/:vnew/:tabnew the CWD sticks to previous buffer's
`b_localdir` even though the new curbuf has none, so :new is not
equivalent to ":split | enew", and getcwd() disagrees with
haslocaldir().
- Requires "which buffer spawned this buffer" semantics that no other
buffer-local state has.
Solution:
Drop sticky/inherit behavior of buffer-local CWD (:bcd).
- do_ecmd: always apply the new curbuf's dir (`fix_current_dir`), like
`do_autochdir` already does. :tabnew from a :bcd buffer now reverts to
global CWD (and fires DirChanged), same as :tabnew from a :lcd window.
- curbuf_reusable(): recycling a scratch buffer frees its b_localdir.
To get sticky/inherit behavior of CWD, use `:lcd`.
Problem:
No way to set a buffer-local directory.
Use-cases:
- "Root dir" for LSP (and the "project" concept).
- `:terminal` OSC 7
Solution:
Add `:bcd` command.
- Extend `getcwd()` to take a third arg; `getcwd(-1, -1, bunfr)` returns
the buffer-local working directory.
- Buffer-local directories have less priority than window-local
ones, and more priority than tab-local ones.

A global-local option may have local value `kObjectTypeUnset`, but
`ex_let_option()` guards only `kObjectTypeNil`.
Solution:
When curval is Unset, resolve it to the inherited global value.
Problem:
By default, `nvim` does not survive if its host terminal dies. This is
inconvenient if you want to use Nvim as a "session manager" (like tmux).
Solution:
Let users opt-in to the "survive" behavior via `:detach!` (bang "!").
This marks the current UI as "detachable", so the server will not
self-exit if the UI channel closes.
Problem:
The default 'ruler' is implemented in C instead of the 'statusline' DSL.
Solution:
Replace the C implementation with a default 'rulerformat' expression.
This is a continuation of #1248 and #33036.
Advantages:
- configuration is more discoverable, the default being a useful example
- users and plugins can augment the default
- code reuse and less C code to maintain
- ui2: due to the use of an item group with `minwid`, it can expand
instead of truncating when the content gets too long, which is
particularly useful for locales with long translations of Top/Bot/All
Implementation details:
As is the case for 'statusline', when trying to set 'rulerformat' to an
empty string, the default expression is restored instead, mimicking how
previously the default C implementation would have been activated.
Just like before, `:set rulerformat=` and `:set rulerformat&` have the
same effect, and the ruler is disabled with `:set noruler`.
The default expression uses an item group with `%=`, unlike the fallback
in the previous default statusline `%-14.(%l,%c%V%) %P`, because the
total width and how it is configured is immediately clear without
documentation, it is a more useful pattern in general that works when
both sides have flexible width, and it also works for vim, which is
useful for configuration sharing/reuse.
A truncation marker `%<` is added at the end to mimic how at small
screen widths, the scroll percentage would disappear first, so that the
cursor position can remain fully visible.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `&rulerformat` can no longer be set to an empty string
- ui2: the default ruler is no longer of fixed width, but can expand
- at very small screen widths (< 36 columns)
- ui2: it will no longer try to shrink white-space before truncating
- it truncates gradually from the right, whereas previously, the
scroll percentage would disappear all at once
- l10n can no longer add a space after the comma between line and column
(this was only done for one language: Ukrainian)
