Problem:
If an edit cascades to cursor(s) that happen to be within a closed fold,
the edit acts on the fold itself (`:h fold-behavior`). E.g. "dd" deletes
the entire fold, not the cursor's line within the fold.
Solution:
Check `mc_replaying()` in `hasAnyFolding()`, so folds are ignored during
a multicursor cascade. This means multicursor always replays relative to
text *within* the fold.
Problem:
Coordinates-to-position conversion for the finish column in
`vim.hl.range()` checks the start column. This results in an incorrect
finish column when only one of the column coordinates is `vim.v.maxcol`.
Solution:
Check the finish column when converting the finish position. Update the
existing screen test so that a `vim.v.maxcol` finish highlights the
end-of-line marker, matching the existing `-1` behavior.
Problem: With 'wildmode' set to list:full the matches are listed but the
wildmenu is not shown, although it is "full" that starts
wildmenu mode (zeertzjq).
Solution: List the matches and show the menu, as the two behaviors in
the same phase ask for. The menu is left to the phases that
ask for it, so that "list" on its own still only lists
(Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: With 'wildmode' set to list:full, matches are listed but the
first match is not completed on the first Tab press (rendcrx).
Solution: Do not suppress selection when list and full are active in
the same completion phase. Add regression tests for file
completion, comma-separated phases and noselect precedence

Problem: popup_show() from a CmdlineChanged autocommand doesn't update
the screen (Mao-Yining)
Solution: Refresh the screen when popups need redraw
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
popup_settext()/popup_show() called from a CmdlineChanged autocommand
did not refresh the screen because cmdline mode normally skips
update_screen(), so async info-popup updates only became visible after
a manual :redraw. Refresh the screen when popups need redrawing right
after the autocommand.

fix(tui): emit ui_send output atomically with the frame
Problem:
tui_ui_send() writes directly to the TTY, bypassing the output buffer.
Sequences sent via nvim_ui_send() (e.g. kitty multiple-cursors, or
visual-dot-repeat) always arrive in a separate TTY write from the frame
they were computed for. This manifests as "tearing", or e.g. in the case
of multicursor the terminal renders text with stale cursor overlays.
Solution:
- tui_ui_send(): while a frame is being assembled (pending invalid
regions or buffered output), buffer instead of writing directly.
- Out-of-frame sends (tty queries, clear-on-disable) still write
immediately.
- mcursor.lua: emit the terminal-cursor update at the end of the redraw
cycle (`on_end`, when screen positions are final) instead of
vim.schedule().
Problem:
Literal path comparison ignored one trailing slash for every buffer name,
including URIs. Generic URI syntax does not make a non-empty path
equivalent to the same path with a trailing slash, so distinct URI
buffers collapsed into one.
Solution:
Require equal lengths when comparing URI buffer names, while retaining
trailing-separator normalization for filesystem paths.
AI-assisted
Problem:
`shorten_fnames()` always redraws the statusline/tabline, even if no
buffer name changed. Since b296666e a temp context-switch
(`win_execute()`, `vim._with{win=}`) restores the CWD, so every such
switch flickers the message area.
Solution:
Redraw only if `shorten_buf_fname()` actually changed a name.
Problem:
Folding range markers are overwritten while ranges are evaluated. A range ending on a row can hide another range starting there, and multiple nested ranges ending together emit only the innermost ending level.
Solution:
Track starts and the number of ends per row before emitting markers. Prefer starts on shared boundary rows and use the outermost level when nested ranges end together.

Problem:
Confirming cmdwin with a UTF-8 character containing 0x80 does not complete the
command.
Solution:
Escape K_SPECIAL bytes while feeding the cmdwin input after confirmation.
Problem:
The "." example mapping at `:h edit-repeat` doesn't work well with
`nvim_feedkeys(…, 'mt', false)`.
Solution:
Use `vim.b[ev.buf].maxseq` instead of `undotree()`.
Problem:
Replaying a deleted Lua mapping, may call an arbitrary function.
RHS of a Lua mapping embeds its LuaRef (`<K_LUA><ref><CR>`). The raw
keys may outlive the ref (redobuff ".", CmdAtom `keys`). If the mapping
is deleted, replaying it either (1) dereferences a freed registry slot,
or (2) calls whatever callback reused the slot (autocmd, timer, other
mapping).
Solution:
Assign a monotonic (never recycled) id to Lua mappings and encode the
mapping keys as `<K_LUA><id><CR>`.
Note: in the case of Vimscript, a deleted function raises E117, but if
the function is redefined with the same name, the mapping will find it.
Alternatives?:
- Globally ensure `LuaRef` ids are not recycled.
- Problem: could exhaust `int` in a long-lived Nvim session? Also,
difficult to impl bc the "recycling" is done by `luaL_ref` itself.
ref: 5ac2e47acc
Problem:
An operator completed by a Lua `:omap` textobject emits
`CmdAtom.type="mapping"` (lhs-only, no keys) instead of `type="operator"`.
Analysis:
`atom_redo_set()` declined K_LUA, though the prepped redo
("op" + K_LUA + id + CR) is exactly what "." replays. A no-edit "g@"
emits nothing at all.
Solution:
- `atom_redo_set`: don't decline K_LUA; the redo route now captures the
operator atom.
- `atom_capture_cmd`: don't early-return if the frame has prepped redo.
- op_function(): save/restore redobuff when invoking 'operatorfunc',
like `call_user_func()` does for Vimscript. (Else the Lua callback
may clobber the prepped "g@" redo / dot-repeat.)
fix#41482
TODO:
- async Lua (timer/vim.schedule) can still clobber the pending dot-repeat...
Problem:
If a snippet does not have a placeholder, we use insert mode instead of
select mode. From here <Esc> leaves the session and highlight active.
Solution:
Cancel the session on <Esc>.
Problem:
0c091cedc2 fixed the "immediate exit" but the 2s `nvim_get_proc()`
check still fails on slow (ASAN) CI.
Solution:
Check the pid after the `screen:expect`. Anyway, `assert_nolog` is the
"meaningful" part of the test since 0c091cedc2.
Problem:
When 'cmdheight' is 0, the MsgSeparator can obscure the statusline when
a message is displayed, making its contents disappear until
the next redraw.
Solution:
Skip the separator when 'cmdheight=0' available.
Problem:
A blank line before the Content-Length header makes header parsing
fail with "Content-Length not found in header". An LF in the 'name'
state falls through to the 'invalid' state, which only return to
'name' at the *next* LF. That LF terminates the next line, so the
line with Content-Length is swallowed.
The same issue happens when a junk line is a partial match of the
header name (e.g. "Cont\nContent-Length: ...").
Solution:
When seeing an LF in the 'name' state, reset the cursor and stay in
'name' rather than entering 'invalid'.
Problem: A completion asked for with CTRL-X CTRL-O while
'autocompletedelay' is running is given the look of an
automatic one, the implicit "noselect" among it.
Solution: Turn autocompletion off where a typed key takes the completion
over. A completion already on screen goes on being what it
was (Hirohito Higashi).

Problem:
The Vim "stuff" concept breaks the ability to reason about the call
stack and thus the boundaries of a `CmdAtom`: a stuffed translation ("x"
=> "dl") defers to the main loop. This "continuation" must be modeled in
`CmdAtom`, by checking global flags at undefined times, during undefined
circumstances.
Solution:
- After a stuffed "translation", eagerly execute the stuff buffer
(`exec_stuffed()`).
- Delete the CmdAtom "continuation" junk.
Note:
- op_colon runs its cmdline "nested", but that's fine because operators
already nest interactive sessions there (op_change runs edit()), and
the cmdline is frameless so the operator's frame can own/capture it.
Problem:
If an autocommand handler focuses the tab page we're closing during a
`:tabonly` (with some conditions), we hit an assert failure in
`win_close_othertab()`.
For this to occur, we need:
- `nvim_buf_delete()` to trigger `close_windows()` (as is done in
`cmdwin.lua`'s `_cleanup()`)
- `close_windows()` then calls `win_close_othertab()`, removing the
window (`win_free_mem()`)
- then in the caller, `tabpage_close_other()`, the loop continues (we
don't detect `tp_lastwin == wp` since we've unlinked the window)
- the loop assumes that `curtab != tp`
but we've refocused `curtab` so the `ex_win_close()` call passes `tp` as
`curtab`, causing the assert to fail
Solution:
Detect the focus of `curtab` and abort closing the tab.
Problem:
Undo places the cursor wherever the cursor happened to sit at "save
time" (`uh_cursor` is sampled lazily on the first change).
Examples:
- `i` preserves, but `a` does not
- `diw`, `atest<Esc>`, `d^` abandon the original position
- `D`, `o` restore it (by accident).
Solution:
`composite` tracks the pending atom (and its `origin`) across frames.
A `stuffed` continuation frame inherits the `origin` + prepped redo.
Store `origin` info in the undo header, so undo can restore it.
- Not for a mid-command undo break (i_CTRL-G_u).
- Undoing a mapping restores where the mapping started (which
technically may be different than where the "edit" started).
Problem:
An insert-session entered by a scheduled `feedkeys('i','n')` is
classified on entry (as "not typed"), and not reevaluated after that,
thus user input following it is not captured.
Repro: an `:imap` that does `feedkeys('<esc>','n')` and schedules
re-entering insert, emits one CmdAtom for the first press, then nothing
else.
Solution:
Sample `maptick` (ticked by `gotchars()` on typed input, including
mappings) at session start; if it advanced by session end, the session
is user input.
Problem:
`nlua_pcall()` references `_G.debug.traceback`. If user code deletes it
or breaks it some other way, various Lua features are broken.
_G.debug = nil
vim.schedule(function() end)
vim.wait(100)
E5113: Lua chunk: attempt to index a nil value
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'loop_poll'
[string "vim/_core/editor"]:176: in function 'wait'
crash.lua:3: in main chunk
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (attempt to index a nil value)
Solution:
Check `_G.debug.traceback` before using it as errfunc. If it's broken,
omit the traceback and say so in the error message.
Note: We could cache `_G.debug` in LUA_REGISTRYINDEX on startup, but
that would prevent plugins from providing custom functionality there
(and we happen to do so in `tui_spec.lua` for example).
libvterm reads the first three sub-parameters of an SGR 38:2 or 48:2 sequence
as R:G:B, so a colour space id shifts the channels: the empty slot becomes red
via CSI_ARG_MISSING truncating to 255, and green and blue move over one.
Skip the colour space id when the colon-separated group holds more than three
arguments. The group length comes from CSI_ARG_HAS_MORE rather than the raw
argument count, so a following semicolon-separated parameter is not consumed.
Problem:
With these two lines (`\b` marking a backspace):
f\bfoo
xb\bb
line 1's bold run ends at byte 1 and line 2's begins at byte 1, so line 1
renders "fo" in bold rather than "f", and line 2's "b" is not bold at all.
Solution:
Only grow a highlight group that is on the current row.
Problem: ins_compl_dict_alloc() builds the same dict as
fill_complete_info_dict().
Solution: Call fill_complete_info_dict() instead (glepnir).
closes: vim/vim#21140303a153694
Problem: A function used through 'omnifunc' or 'complete' is called the
same way whether 'autocomplete' started the completion or a
key asked for one, so it cannot answer differently.
Solution: Report which of the two it is in complete_info() as "auto". It
is returned only when asked for in {what}, so what
complete_info() says by itself does not change
(Hirohito Higashi).

Problem: backupcopy=auto overwrites a file in place when umask is restrictive.
The probe treats permission restore as impossible and writes in
place, keeping the same inode.
Solution: When creating the probe file, open() applies umask, so a 0644
file becomes 0600 with umask 0077. Use fchmod() to fix the
permissions of the probe (Pranav Dwivedi).

Problem:
Test sockets live under `$TMPDIR`, which the harness points at the build
dir. On macOS/BSD `sockaddr_un.sun_path` is 104 bytes, and a CI build
path plus "nvim.<pid>.<n>" leaves little room:
/Users/runner/work/neovim/neovim/build/Xtest_tmpdir_terminal/nvim.runner/aBcDeF/nvim.12345.0
Solution:
Point XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (`stdpath('run')`) at "/tmp/nvim_<pid>". 28 bytes:
/tmp/nvim_19916/nvim.19919.1
TODO?:
- `TEMP_DIR_NAMES` prefers `$TMPDIR` over `/tmp`, so on macOS
`stdpath('run')` defaults to the long `/var/folders/<xx>/<…>/T/` path
instead of the short `/tmp` alias.
Note:
- The 104-byte limit applies to the `bind()` arg, not its "realpath",
to, so `/tmp/…` symlinks can be used to workaround the limit.
Problem:
Cannot retry a test with its full `after_each`/`before_each` lifecycle.
Solution:
- Overload `it()` to accept an `opts` param:
```
it('flaky', { retries = 2 }, function(ctx) end) -- 3 attempts.
```
- Pass `ctx` to test functions.
- Fix a bug in `t.read_file_list()`.
Problem:
The vimdoc parser does not treat "\r" as whitespace, so in a CRLF
helpfile the codeblock rule fails and "*" pairs inside examples become
tags. On Windows this generates duplicate "." and "/" tags:
D:/a/neovim/neovim/build/bin/nvim.exe -u NONE -i NONE -e --headless -c "helptags ++t doc" -c "exe 'cquit' !empty(v:errmsg)""
Error in command line:
E154: Duplicate tag "." in gui.txt and repeat.txt
E154: Duplicate tag "/" in pattern.txt and usr_08.txt
E154: Duplicate tag "/" in usr_08.txt and pattern.txt
Note: The old C parser was unaffected because it read helpfiles in text
mode (`os_fopen(…, "r")`).
Solution:
Strip "\r" before parsing.
Problem:
Parent commit regressed some behavior of the old C helptags-gen impl:
- helpfiles in sub-directories are named by basename, so :help fails
- "help-tags" always names "tags", never "tags-nl"
- E150 E151 E152 E153 are never reported
- existing tags file is not overwritten if no tags were found
- a duplicate tag aborts the run, skipping the remaining directories
- `*.TXT` and `*.FRX` (uppercase) are not recognized as helpfiles
- tree-sitter-vimdoc accepts tags that the C parser rejected: `*a|b*`
(breaks |links|) and unterminated `*tag`
- PUC Lua "<" compares with (localized) `strcoll()`, so the tags file is
not sorted by byte value (E432)
- requiring `vim.treesitter` at load time breaks :help itself, not just
:helptags, where the module is unavailable
- `vim.pack` runs :helptags for plugins that have no "doc/" directory,
so every install/update emits E150
Solution:
- Fail the build if generating helptags reports any `v:errmsg`.
- Restore old behavior: tags generated for runtime/doc are now identical
to those from the C implementation. Errors are non-fatal messages
instead of exceptions, so all directories are still processed.
- Load treesitter lazily, report a plain error if parser is missing.
