Problem:
The window opened by `vim.lsp.util.open_floating_preview()`
allows its buffer to be switched. Presumably that only happens
by accident and is disorienting.
Solution:
Set 'winfixbuf' in the open_floating_preview() window.

This commit renames positional parameters. This is only "cosmetic", but
is intended to make it extra clear which name is preferred, since people
often copy existing code despite the guidelines in `:help dev-naming`.
Problem:
To support `collapsedText`, which allows the LSP server to determine the
content of the foldtext, we provided `vim.lsp.foldtext()`. However, such
content does not have highlighting.
Solution
Treat the filetype of `collapsedText` as the filetype of the corresponding
buffer and use tree-sitter to highlight it.
In 3a4a66017b, 4d3a67cd62, df8d98173c we renamed "buffer" to "buf"
in dict parameters and return-values.

Extract the diagnostic implementation from
runtime/lua/vim/diagnostic.lua into focused internal modules covering
config, display, float rendering, jump/list helpers, namespace and
storage management, severity/shared utilities, and statusline support.
Move the builtin handlers into runtime/lua/vim/diagnostic/handlers/ and
keep runtime/lua/vim/diagnostic.lua as the public facade that lazily
dispatches to the split modules. This preserves the external
vim.diagnostic API while making the implementation easier to navigate
and reason about.

Replace the busted-based Lua test runner with a repo-local harness.
The new harness runs spec files directly under `nvim -ll`, ships its own
reporter and lightweight `luassert` shim, and keeps the helper/preload
flow used by the functional and unit test suites.
Keep the file boundary model shallow and busted-like by restoring `_G`,
`package.loaded`, `package.preload`, `arg`, and the process environment
between files, without carrying extra reset APIs or custom assertion
machinery.
Update the build and test entrypoints to use the new runner, add
black-box coverage for the harness itself, and drop the bundled
busted/luacheck dependency path.

Problem: The cursor shape is changed to indicate when it is behind an
unfocused floating window (since a2b92a5e). This behavior
cannot be controlled by a floating window that doesn't want
to dim the cursor.
Solution: Assign a zindex-offset of 50 to the zindex of the current
window. To not dim the cursor when creating a floating window
on top of the current window one can assign the zindex
accordingly.
Problem:
- Not obvious which _meta/ are generated and which should be edited
manually.
- The require guard (`error('Cannot require a meta file')`) is not
consistently present in all meta files.
Solution:
- Update headers.
- Add require() guard to all meta files.
- Rename generated meta files with `.gen.lua`.
Problem:
- Lots of redundant text in options docs for "not allowed in
a modeline", even though we already have a flag that indicates that.
- `deny_in_modelines` is an old vestigial flag only used by 'encoding'
(which never changes).
Solution:
- Generate docs based on the `secure` flag.
- Remove the `deny_in_modelines` flag (`kOptFlagNoML`).
Problem:
Neovim's Node.js provider does not support the Bun package manager.
PR #26829 attempted to add this but used a hardcoded path and was abandoned.
Solution:
- Use `bun pm bin -g` to dynamically locate the global binary directory.
- Update `health.lua` to recognize bun installations.
Problem: vim.lsp.util.show_document insert mode is unable
to set the cursor after the target character position if the target character
is at end of line.
Solution: Move cursor after the target character (in append position)
in this case.
Problem: _get_and_set_name edits the name for the whole group,
thus only one client per group gets the didOpen message.
Solution: move the logic to _changetracking and loop over every
client per group.
Problem:
If `'keywordprg'` begins with `:`, `3K` turns the count into an Ex
range. Commands that don't support that then fail. Vim passes the count
as the first arg (see #19436, vim/vim#10745).
Solution:
Pass `[count]` as the first arg for `'keywordprg'`.
Problem: hlgroup2dict passes &ns_id to ns_get_hl twice. The first call
(link=true) sets *ns_hl = 0 when link_global is set, so the second call
and the sg_cleared guard both see ns_id == 0 and bail out. The group is
silently dropped from the result.
Solution: use a temporary copy of ns_id for each ns_get_hl call so the
original value is preserved.
Problem:
On Git versions 2.13..2.26 there is a bug that prevents using
`stash --message`.
Solution:
Use the full `stash push --message` form to avoid that bug.
Problem: hover/signature callback lacked consistency checks, so slow LSP servers
could open a float after the cursor had already moved away.
Solution: guard the callback with buf validity, buf version, and cursor
position checks before opening the float. Also fix table capacity calculation.
Problem:
When a new textDocument/codeLens response arrives with unresolved lenses,
on_win clears the existing codelens row before codeLens/resolve
completes. This causes the displayed codelens text to flicker while
typing.
Solution:
Keep the current virtual lines if any of the refreshed lenses are still
unresolved. Clear the old virtual lines only when the line no longer has
lenses or all its lenses are resolved.
A trade-off is that the user may temporarily see outdated codelenses.
However, that's preferable to spamming updates on every refresh.

Problem: If the lockfile points to the revision that is not on disk, the
`:checkhealth vim.pack` suggests to run `vim.pack.update()`. Although
usually it should resolve the problem, it is not always the case: like
if the state on disk is already the latest available.
Solution: Add an extra suggestion with a more drastic measure by
manually removing `rev` field from the lockfile for it to be repaired
after the `:restart`.
Problem:
`vim.lsp.buf.definition`/`vim.lsp.buf.declaration` use the same underlying code
via `get_locations`, whereas `vim.lsp.buf.reference` does not. This is because
`buf.reference` does not perform a jump when there is only one item.
Solution:
In #38510, I simplified the jump logic using `:cfirst`, so they can now share
code more easily. Additionally, this PR enables `buf.definition` to display the
corresponding qflist name.
Problem:
`:help dev-name-common` states that "buf" should be used instead of
"buffer" but there are cases where buffer is mentioned in the lua API.
Solution:
- Rename occurrences of "buffer" to "buf" for consistency with the
documentation.
- Support (but deprecate) "buffer" for backwards compatibility.

Problem:
Since 2f6d1d3c88, `apply_text_edits`
unconditionally sets `buflisted=true`, causing spurious BufDelete events
if plugins restore the original 'buflisted' state on unlisted buffers:
65ef6cec1c/src/nvim/option.c (L2159-L2169)
Solution:
- Don't set 'buflisted' in `apply_text_edits`. Set it more narrowly, in
`apply_workspace_edit` where the semantics requires affected buffers
to be visible to the user.
- Also skip setting 'buflisted' if it would not be changed, to avoid
redundant `OptionSet` events.
Problem: nvim_exec_autocmds() documentation incorrectly describes the default
for "pattern" as *, when it's actually the current file name (like :doautocmd).
Solution: correct it. Add a test.
Problem:
The current LSP diagnostic implementation can't differ between a pull
diagnostic with no identifier and a set of diagnostics provided via push
diagnostics.
"Anonymous pull providers" are expected by the protocol https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#diagnosticOptions
, depending on how the capability was registered:
- Dynamic registrations have an identifier.
- Static registrations will not.
Solution:
Restore the `is_pull` argument removed in
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/37938, keeping the identifier of
pull diagnostic collections.
Problem: vim.VersionRange had no __eq metamethod, so comparing 2 distinct
but same value instances always returned false. In vim.pack.add this caused
redundant lockfile rewrites, even when the resulting lockfile content was
unchanged.
Solution: Add __eq metamethod on vim.VersionRange
Problem:
`:checkhealth vim.lsp` validates configured filetypes against
`getcompletion('', 'filetype')`. This only reflects runtime support
files.
This causes false warnings in `:checkhealth vim.lsp` for configured
filetypes that are known to the Lua filetype registry, including
values added with `vim.filetype.add()` and built-in registry-only
filetypes.
Solution:
Build the healthcheck's known-filetype set from both
`getcompletion('', 'filetype')` and `vim.filetype.inspect()`.
Problem:
`vim.Range` and `vim.Pos` have signature mismatches on the docs of some functions.
Solution:
Split the "module" functions from the "class" functions (just like it's done in other modules like `vim.version`) and regenerate the docs.
Problem: When Neovim is built with Zig, `:checkhealth` falsely reports
"Non-optimized debug build" for release builds. The extraction regex
stops at the first space, and the validation regex only lists CMake
build type names.
Solution: Fix the extraction regex to capture the full build type string
and add Zig optimization levels (ReleaseFast, ReleaseSafe, ReleaseSmall)
to the validation regex.
