Problem: clangd prepends a space/bullet indicator to label. With
labelDetailsSupport enabled, the signature moves to labelDetails,
making label shorter. This flips the length comparison in
get_completion_word, causing it to use item.label directly and
insert the indicator into the buffer.
Solution: only prefer filterText over label when label starts with non-keyword
character in get_completion_word fallback branch.
Problem:
`vim.keymap.*.Opts.buf` allows `boolean` aliases for more widely
used `integer?` values, `true` -> `0` and `false` -> `nil`. This
conversion is unnecessary and can be handled at call sites.
Solution:
As a follow-up to deprecating the `buffer` option, drop support for
boolean values for the new `buf` option. The deprecated `buffer`
continues to support booleans for backward compatibility.
Problem: Generating snippet preview in get_doc() populated the
documentation field before resolve, so the resolve request was
never sent.
Solution: Move snippet preview logic into on_completechanged and
the resolve callback so it no longer blocks the resolve request.
Problem: `vim.lsp.enable()` skips all buffers with non-empty `buftype`,
including `help` buffers. LSPs targeting `filetype='help'` never
auto-attach despite help buffers being real files.
Solution: Expand the `buftype` guard in `lsp_enable_callback` to allow
`help` alongside `""`.
Problem:
The "tohtml" plugin is loaded by default.
Solution:
- Move it to `pack/dist/opt/nvim.tohtml/`, it is an "opt-in" plugin now.
- Document guidelines.
- Also revert the `plugin/` locations of `spellfile.lua` and `net.lua`.
That idea was not worth the trouble, it will be too much re-education
for too little gain.
Problem: Default swatch unicode character got lost.
Solution: Put it back where it belongs.

The `buffer` option remains functional but is now undocumented.
Providing both will raise an error. Since providing `buf` was disallowed
before, there is no code that will break due to using `buffer` alongside
`buf`.
Problem:
- Window height is set dynamically to match the text height,
making it difficult for the user to use a different height.
- Cmdwin is closed to enter the pager but still taken into
account for the pager position, and not restored when
the pager is closed.
- Dialog pager handler may unnecessarily consume <Esc>.
Solution:
- Add maximum height config fields for each of the UI2 windows,
where a number smaller than one is a fraction of 'lines',
absolute height otherwise (i.e. `cfg.msg.pager.height = 0.5`).
- If the cmdwin will be closed to enter the pager, don't try
to position the pager above it. Re-enter the cmdwin when the
pager is closed.
- Only add vim.on_key() handler for the dialog paging is actually
possible.
Problem:
f9b2189b28 started using namespaces
for pull diagnostics that look like this `<id>:<identifier>`.
`vim.lsp.buf.codeaction` passes `true` instead of an identifier
to `vim.lsp.diagnostic.get_namespace`, resulting in a namespace that
looks like `<id>:nil`. The end result is that none of the diagnostics are
passed to `textDocument/codeAction` request. Because of that server
might not send any code actions back. For example, eslint lsp responds
with an empty list of actions if it receives no diagnostics.
Solution:
use `_provider_foreach` to collect diagnostics from all `identifiers`
and use that identifier to get a namespace instead of `true`.
Problem: It is possible (and documented in `:h vim.pack`) that plugin's
`src` uses "insteadOf" Git config. In that case comparing it directly
to repo's `origin` will error.
Solution: Add extra check that lockfile's `src` is not equal to repo's
`origin` when taking Git's "insteadOf" into account.
However, still report the original lockfile's `src` in the
`:checkhealth` output, as it seems to be a clearer indication of what
actually is wrong.
If a user accepts completion and immediately exits insert mode, it
could happen that `Context.cursor` was nil by the time the
`completion/resolve` response arrives, leading to an error.
Problem:
Default statusline doesn't show progress status.
Solution:
- Provide `vim.ui.progress_status()`.
- Include it in the default 'statusline'.
How it works:
Status text summarizes "running" progress messages.
- If none: returns empty string
- If one running item: "title: percent%"
- If multiple running items: "Progress: N items avg-percent%"
Problem:
Checking the extension of a file is done often, e.g. in Nvim's codebase
for differentiating Lua and Vimscript files in the runtime. The current
way to do this in Lua is (1) a Lua pattern match, which has pitfalls
such as not considering filenames starting with a dot, or (2)
fnamemodify() which is both hard to discover and hard to use / read if
not very familiar with the possible modifiers.
vim.fs.ext() returns the file extension including the leading dot of
the extension. Similar to the "file extension" implementation of many
other stdlibs (including fnamemodify(file, ":e")), a leading dot
doesn't indicate the start of the extension. E.g.: the .git folder in a
repository doesn't have the extension .git, but it simply has no
extension, similar to a folder named git or any other filename without
dot(s).
Problem
The format of LSP log messages is inconsistent; some include underscores, while others are not logged at all.
Solution
Standardize log recording and unify the log message prefixes with the module names.
Problem:
The capability attach path for client/registerCapability can initialize a capability even when the capability was only registered in specific buffers
Solution:
Check supports_method() before attaching capabilities from the dynamic registration handler so unsupported registrations are ignored.
AI-assisted: OpenCode
- Add TODO comments for aggregating diagnostics from all pull namespaces
and for clearing diagnostics when an empty array is received, referencing
the LSP specification.
- Update diagnostics refresh logic to safely access previousResultId,
preventing potential nil errors.
Previously, resultId for diagnostics was keyed only by client_id, which
could cause issues when multiple identifiers are used by the same client.
This change introduces a composite key of client_id and identifier for
client_result_id, ensuring correct tracking of diagnostic results per
identifier. Updates all relevant logic to use the new keying scheme.
Previously, the LSP client assumed all providers had subcapabilities,
which could cause issues when a provider did not. This change adds a
check for the presence of subcapabilities before attempting to access
them, ensuring correct handling of both cases. This improves
compatibility with servers that register providers without additional
capabilities.
Update diagnostic refresh to request diagnostics from all provider
registrations using _provider_foreach. This ensures diagnostics are
fetched from every registered provider during a refresh.

Introduce _provider_foreach to iterate over all matching provider
capabilities for a given LSP method, handling both static and dynamic
registrations. Update diagnostic logic and tests to use the new
iteration approach, simplifying capability access and improving
consistency across features.
Problem
Unlike inlay hints, code lenses are closely related to running commands;
a significant number of code lenses are used to execute a command (such
as running tests). Therefore, it is necessary to provide a default
mapping for them.
Solution
Add a new default mapping "grx" (mnemonic: "eXecute", like "gx").
Problem:
Mouse popup menus (right-click context menus) do not respect the
'pumborder' option and could overflow screen boundaries when borders
were enabled near the edge.
Solution:
- Remove the mouse menu exclusion from border rendering.
- Add boundary check to shift menu left when border would exceed screen
width, ensuring complete visibility of menu content and borders.
Problem:
`vim.lsp.document_color.color_presentation()` throws, due to incorrect use of the `vim.Range` API.
Solution:
Change `vim.Range.has(a, b)` call to `a:has(b)`.
Problem: Entering the pager is scheduled to avoid errors while in the
cmdwin. Meanwhile the current window is used as a condition to
detect an active pager.
Solution: Keep track of when the user is in the pager (or entered the
cmdwin while the pager was open).
Problem: Windows are closed and re-opened after changing tabpage (and
might be removed from the current tabpage after 094b297a).
Solution: Ensure windows are on the current tabpage by moving them.
Problem:
No way to iterate configs. Users need to reach
for `vim.lsp.config._configs`, an internal interface.
Solution:
Provide vim.lsp.get_configs().
Also indirectly improves :lsp enable/disable completion
by discarding invalid configs from completion.
Problem:
When `to_vim_value[info.metatype](info, value)` is called, a list value
such as `{'eob:a'}` is treated like a map, which generates `1:eob:a`.
Note: commands like `:lua vim.opt.wildmode={'longest:full'}` are not an
issue because only cases harcoded in `key_value_options` have metatype `map`.
Solution:
Check for array type and use the same logic as in array metatypes.
Problem:
When code lens is enabled, `on_attach` is executed, but it does not trigger a redraw. Another event, eg, moving the cursor, is required to trigger a redraw and execute the decoration provider's `on_win`.
Solution:
Trigger a `redraw` after each request is completed.
Problem:
"[Process exited]" is implemented in C with anonymous namespace
and users have no way to hide it.
Solution:
- Handle "TermClose" event in Lua.
- User can delete the "nvim.terminal" augroup to avoid "[Process exited]".
Problem:
Completion preview always assumes plain text, ignoring LSP documentation "kind".
Solution:
Pass markup kind from completion item to info window, or fallback to PlainText.
vim-patch:9.2.0174: diff: inline word-diffs can be fragmented
Problem: When using 'diffopt=inline:word', lines were excessively
fragmented with punctuation creating separate highlight
blocks, making it harder to read the diffs.
Solution: Added 'diff_refine_inline_word_highlight()' to merge
adjacent diff blocks that are separated by small gaps of
non-word characters (up to 5 bytes by default) (HarshK97).
When using inline:word diff mode, adjacent changed words separated by
punctuation or whitespace are now merged into a single highlight block
if the gap between them contains fewer than 5 non-word characters.
This creates more readable diffs and closely matches GitHub's own diff
display.
closes: vim/vim#1909842c6686c78
Problem:
The 'android' and 'termux' feature flags have been shipped in the
downstream neovim/neovim-nightly package for 5+ years but were never
properly documented in the downstream patch.
Solution:
Upstream the 'android' and 'termux' feature flags into Neovim as
decoupled feature flags, this enables the 'android' feature in
particular to be available independently of the 'termux' feature
for builds of Neovim against the Android NDK, but not including
the Termux NDK patchset.

Problem:
No way to disable progress messages in cmdline message area. If
a third-party plugin handles Progress events + messages, the user may
not want the "redundant" progress displayed in the cmdline message area.
Solution:
Support "progress:c" entry in 'messageopts' option.
