Problem: A BufAdd autocommand may cause alist_add() to use freed
memory, this is caused by the w_locked variable unset too
early (henices)
Solution: in trigger_undo_ftplugin() only set w_locked to false, if it
was false when calling the function.

Problem: Restoring window after WinScrolled may fail.
Solution: Lock the window layout when triggering WinScrolled.

Only check close_disallowed in window_layout_locked() for now.
Also don't check window_layout_locked() when closing a floating window,
as it's not checked when creating a floating window.

On linux /dev/stdin is defined as a symlink to /proc/self/fd/0
This in turn is defined as a "magic" symlink which is allowed to point
to internal kernel objects which really does not have a file
name. As a glaring inconsistency, fopen("/proc/self/fd/0", "r")
works if fd was originally opened using pipe() but not using
socketpair(). As it happens UV_CREATE_PIPE does not create pipes
but creates socket pairs. These two unfortunate conditions
means that using /dev/stdin and similar does not work in
shell commands in nvim on linux. as a work around, override
libuv's descicion and create an actual pipe pair.
This change is not needed on BSD:s but done unconditionally for simplicity,
except for on windows where it is not done for stdout because of windows

Problem: Installing plugin with submodules doesn't check out their
state (due to `git clone --no-checkout` to not end up with default
branch code in case of invalid `version`).
Updating a plugin with submodules doesn't update their state.
Solution: Update `git_checkout` helper to account for submodules.
Another approach would be `git checkout --recurse-submodules ...`,
but that doesn't seem to allow `--filter=blob:none` for submodules,
which is nice to have.
Also make `git_clone` wrapper simpler since `--no-checkout` makes
`--recurse-submodules` and `--also-filter-submodules` do nothing.
Problem: The `add` startup tests mock startup process which requires
*some* amount of time to be done. Previous solution with `vim.wait`
to wait just enough time to register that startup script has finished
doesn't seem to work as intended (it just wait full time). Its timeout
is also seems to be barely enough to pass on Windows CI. Which will be
a problem with more `git` actions done on startup in the future/next
commit.
Solution: Just sleep predetermined amount of time and explicitly check
if startup script finished executing.
Problem:
vim.glob.to_lpeg() errors when patterns contain numeric literals
(like the '1' in '.ps*1') because LPeg interprets numeric strings
as indexed grammar rule references. For example:
vim.glob.to_lpeg('.ps*1')
E5108: Lua: rule '1' undefined in given grammar
Solution:
Prefix all rule names with '_' in the end_seg() function to prevent
literal numbers from being interpreted as LPeg indexed rules. This
ensures pattern components like '1', '2', etc. are treated as
regular rule names rather than special references.
Problem: Installing plugin is done via `git clone --no-checkout ...`
(to not end up with default branch code in case of invalid `version`).
This leaves cloned repo in a state that `git stash` will actually add
an entry to the stash list. Although not critical, better to not have
that if possible.
Solution: explicitly skip `git stash` step in checkout during install.
Problem: The :help command lacks command termination tests.
Solution: Add tests for command termination at "|", "^M" and "^J".
- Check special handling of "|" in arguments.
- Update the Vim syntax file.

Problem:
vim.lsp.tagfunc looks for the presence of 'c' (cursor) flag and issues
sync textDocument/definition requests to all clients, otherwise
workspace/symbol requests. But 'c' flag can also be set during the
insert mode completion, e.g. with an empty tag completion query, the tag
func receives pattern of '\<\k\k' with flags 'cir'.
Solution:
check for 'i' (insert mode completion) flag and don't issue any LSP
requests, return vim.NIL for immediate fallback to tags.
This fixes a regression from cf6f60ce4d
(possibly), as before that commit a frame is popped from the call stack
immediately after its response is received.
Also fix leaking the allocated error messages.
Problem: tests: test_ins_complete.vim leaves swapfiles behind

Problem: info/preview floating windows are created
without wrap enabled, causing info text to be
truncated.
Solution: enable 'wrap' and set 'scrolloff' to 0 by
default, like vim's popup_create does.
Problem:
Using nvim_set_current_win() to switch windows while in Visual mode
causes E315 ml_get error when target buffer has fewer lines. This
doesn't happen with `:wincmd w` since it properly resets Visual mode
when switching buffers.
Solution:
Reset Visual mode when switching to another buffer, like `:wincmd w`.
Only set fileformat=dos for new files; preserve existing line endings
when editing. This satisfies RFC 5228 for new files while avoiding
issues with version control and existing workflows.
The previous change (3cb4148) unconditionally set fileformat=dos, which
converts existing files with LF line endings to CRLF on save. This
causes issues with version control (entire file appears changed) and
breaks workflows where sieve files are stored with unix line endings.
Dovecot Pigeonhole (the main sieve implementation) has explicitly
accepted LF line endings since 2008 (commit 97b967b5):
/* Loose LF is allowed (non-standard) and converted to CRLF */
This behavior has remained unchanged for almost 18 years.

Problem: when shortmess doesn't have 'S', backward search wrap doesn't
show the "W" before count. forward search works fine but
backward fails because the position check logic is backwards -
it checks if cursor < pos instead of using the existing
wrapped flag.
Solution: Use sia->sa_wrapped flag that searchit() already sets
correctly (glepnir).

vim-patch:536ee91: runtime(doc): add termdebug tag, remove term "floating window"
Problem:
- When I type `:h termdebug`, I will expect to see the introduction of
the termdebug plugin. But instead, it shows me document of
`termdebug_wide`, and I have to scroll up quite much to find the
introduction.
- `:h popup` says `floating-window`? Why? As I have tried both features
(of Vim and Neovim), I think they are _very different_ things, even
more different than job features in Vim and Neovim.
Solution:
- In `:h terminal.txt`, add tag `*termdebug*` to the introduction of
termdebug plugin.
- In `:h popup.txt`, "floating window" -> "popup window".
closes: vim/vim#19135536ee91189
Change the title ":Termdebug plugin" to simply ":Termdebug", otherwise

Problem:
The `"Running healthchecks..."` message doesn't inform the user much and
is a hack from before we got a way to emit actual progress messages.
Solution:
Use `nvim_echo` to emit progress messages showing the name of the report
that is currently running.
Problem: Setting pumborder=shadow doesn't blend proerly.
Solution: Check fconfig.shadow when setting pum_grid.blending, like what
is done in check_blending().
Problem:
ICCF Holland is dissolved by the end of 2025 ^1 and sponsorships are
transferred to Kuwasha (https://kuwasha.net). Their SSL certificate is
already expired, so the https URL mentioned in the intro text doesn't
work anymore. Reported by https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/36597#issue-3635391949.
Solution:
URL is removed from the text. We'll keep the vim.org URL for now as it
points to the same information.
