Problem:
`diagnostic.status()` is configured via `config.signs`, but users may
want diagnostics only in statusline, not in the gutter (signs).
Solution:
Add `config.status`.
Problem: apply_autocmds function can free both buf_T and win_T pointers
Solution: instead retain winids for WinResized and WinScrolled
autocmds and use curbuf pointer, which is consistent with other uses
of apply_autocmds function
Problem:
No way to detect at runtime if the build includes unibilium (or whatever
terminfo layer we swap it with later).
Solution:
Support `has('terminfo')`.
Problem: `extmark_splice()` was being called before `ml_replace()`,
which caused the on_bytes callback to be invoked with the old buffer
text instead of the new text.
Solution: store metadata for each match in a growing array, call
`ml_replace()` once to update the buffer, then call `extmark_splice()`
once per match.

Problem: Wrong virtcol('$') with virtual text at EOL (rickhowe).
Solution: Also add 1 to end virtcol when there is virtual text.

Problem:
Trying to match the search highlight groups to the Normal highlight for
the window can fail when the message highlighting contains a fg/bg that
the Normal highlight doesn't (like an error message in cmd will have
ErrorMsg highlight instead of MsgArea - which is Normal in cmd.)
Solution:
Link the search highlight groups to an empty group in 'winhighlight'
thus disabling them instead of overriding them with Normal/MsgArea/etc.
Limit the default truncation item to the current recursion range so
nested `nvim_eval_statusline()` calls don't reuse stale `stl_items`
pointers. Add a functional regression that evaluates a Lua statusline
helper which forces truncation to ensure the nested scenario stays
stable.

Fixes#36616
Problem:
When running ":edit <url>", filetype detection is not triggered.
Solution:
Run the autocmds in the filetypedetect group after loading the content.
Problem:
After fetching remote content from a URL and adding it to the buffer,
the buffer is marked as modified. This is inconsistent with the original
netrw behavior, and it causes problems with `:e` to refresh or `:q` as
it prompts for saving the file even if the user hasn't touched the
content at all.
Solution:
Mark the buffer as unmodified right after adding the remote content to
the buffer.
Technically the current behavior does match documentation. However, the
keys following <Cmd>/K_LUA aren't normally received by vim.on_key()
callbacks either, so it does makes sense to discard them along with the
preceding key.
One may also argue that vim.on_key() callbacks should instead receive
the following keys together with the <Cmd>/K_LUA, but doing that may
cause some performance problems, and even in that case the keys should
still be discarded together.
fix(ui2): hide search highlights in msg window.
Problem: Search highlighting is shown in the msg (and dialog) window.
Solution: Hide search highlighting in all but the pager window.
Problem:
With the typescript LSes typescript-language-server and vtsls,
omnicompletion on partial tokens for certain types, such as array
methods, and functions that are attached as attributes to other
functions, either results in no entries populated in the completion menu
(typescript-language-server), or an unfiltered completion menu with all
array methods included, even if they don't share the same prefix as the
partial token being completed (vtsls).
Solution:
Enable insertReplaceSupport and uses the insert portion of the lsp
completion response in adjust_start_col if it's included in the
response.
Completion results are still filtered client side.
Problem: No way to customize completion order across multiple servers.
Solution: Add `cmp` function to `vim.lsp.completion.enable()` options
for custom sorting logic.
Problem: Cannot reuse same config with noautocmd for both window
creation and updates, even when value is unchanged.
Solution: Only reject noautocmd changes for existing windows.
Problem:
Users often jump and navigate through LSP windows to yank text.
Concealed markdown can make navigation through hyperlinks and code
blocks more difficult.
Solution:
Change 'concealcursor' from 'n' to '' to preserve clean display
while improving navigation and selection of the LSP response.
Closes#36537
Problem: unnecessary and deprecated diagnostics use their own highlight
groups (`DiagnosticUnnecessary` and `DiagnosticDeprecated`) which
override the typical severity-based highlight groups (like
`DiagnosticUnderlineWarn`).
This can be misleading, since diagnostics about unused variables which
are warnings or errors, are shown like comments, since then only the
`DiagnosticUnnecessary` highlight group is used. Users do not see the
more eye-catching red/yellow highlight.
Solution: Instead of overriding the highlight group to
`DiagnosticUnnecessary` or `DiagnosticDeprecated`, set them in addition
to the normal severity-based highlights.
Problem: `nvim://` scheme feels more like a generalized interface that
may be requested externally, and it acts like CLI args (roughly).
This is how `vscode://` works.
Anything that behaves like an "app" or a "protocol" deserves its own
scheme. For such Nvim-owned things they will be called `nvim-xx://`.
Solution: Use `nvim-pack://confirm#<bufnr>` template for confirmation
buffer name instead of `nvim://pack-confirm#<bufnr>`.
Problem: Lockfile can become out of sync with what is actually installed
on disk when user performs (somewhat reasonable) manual actions like:
- Delete lockfile and expect it to regenerate.
- Delete plugin directory without `vim.pack.del()`.
- Manually edit lock data in a bad way.
Solution: Synchronize lockfile data with installed plugins on every
lockfile read. In particular:
1. Install immediately all missing plugins with valid lock data.
This helps with "manually delete plugin directory" case by
prompting user to figure out how to properly delete a plugin.
2. Repair lock data for properly installed plugins.
This helps with "manually deleted lockfile", "manually edited
lockfile in an unexpected way", "installation terminated due to
timeout" cases.
3. Remove unrepairable corrupted lock data and their plugins. This
includes bad lock data for missing plugins and any lock data
for corrupted plugins (right now this only means that plugin
path is not a directory, but can be built upon).
Step 1 also improves usability in case there are lazy loaded plugins
that are rarely loaded (like on `FileType` event, for example):
- Previously starting with config+lockfile on a new machine only
installs rare `vim.pack.add()` plugin after it is called (while
an entry in lockfile would still be present). This could be
problematic if there is no Internet connection, for example.
- Now all plugins from the lockfile are installed before actually
executing the first `vim.pack.add()` call in 'init.lua'. And later
they are only loaded on a rare `vim.pack.add()` call.
---
Synchronizing lockfile on its every read makes it work more robustly
if other `vim.pack` functions are called without any `vim.pack.add()`.
---
Performance for a regular startup (good lockfile, everything is
installed) is not affected and usually even increased. The bottleneck
in this area is figuring out which plugins need to be installed.
Previously the check was done by `vim.uv.fs_stat()` for every plugin
in `vim.pack.add()`. Now it is replaced with a single `vim.fs.dir()`
traversal during lockfile sync while later using lockfile data to
figure out if plugin needs to be installed.
The single `vim.fs.dir` approach scales better than `vim.uv.fs_stat`,
but might be less performant if there are many plugins that will be
not loaded via `vim.pack.add()` during startup.
Rough estimate of how long the same steps (read lockfile and normalize
plugin array) take with a single `vim.pack.add()` filled with 43
plugins benchmarking:
- Before commit: ~700 ms
- After commit: ~550 ms
Problem: Currently it is possible to have plugin in a "partial install"
state when `git clone` was successfull but `git checkout` was not.
This was done to not checkout default branch by default in these
situations (for security reasons).
The problem is that it adds complexity when both dealing with lockfile
(plugin's `rev` might be `nil`) and in how `src` and `version` are
treated (wrong `src` - no plugin on disk; wrong `version` - "partial"
plugin on disk).
Solution: Treat plugin as "installed" if both `git clone` and
`git checkout` are successful, while ensuring that not installed
plugins are not on disk and in lockfile.
This also means that if in 'init.lua' there is a `vim.pack.add()` with
bad `version`, for first install there will be an informative error
about it BUT next session will also try to install it. The solution is
the same - adjust `version` beforehand.
Problem: Installation confirmation has several usability issues:
- Choosing "No" results in a `vim.pack.add()` error. This was by
design to ensure that all later code that *might* reference
presumably installed plugin will not get executed. However, this
is often too restrictive since there might be no such code (like
if plugin's effects are automated in its 'plugin/' directory).
Instead the potential code using not installed plugin will throw
an error.
No error on "No" will also be useful for planned lockfile repair.
- List of soon-to-be-installed plugins doesn't mention plugin names.
This might be confusing if plugins are installed under different
name.
Solution: Silently drop installation step if user chose "No" and show
plugin names in confirmation text (together with their pretty aligned
sources).
Problem:
When running with `--headless --listen ./hello`, pressing Ctrl-C
doesn’t log anything and doesn’t clean up the socket file.
Solution:
handle SIGINT like SIGTERM.
Problem:
Some servers write log to stdout and there's no way to avoid it.

Solution:
We can extract `content-length` field byte by byte and skip invalid
lines via a simple state machine (name/colon/value/invalid), with minimal
performance impact.
I chose byte parsing here instead of pattern. Although it's a bit more complex,
it provides more stable performance and allows for more accurate error info when
needed.
Here is a bench result and script:

accd392f4d/test/functional/plugin/lsp_spec.lua (L1950)
and tweaked the boilerplate in two other tests for reusability while keeping the final assertions the same.

Problem: Changing `src` of an existing plugin cleanly requires manual
`vim.pack.del()` prior to executing `vim.pack.add()` with a new `src`.
Solution: Autodetect `src` change for an existing plugin (by comparing
against lockfile data). If different - properly delete immediately and
treat this as new plugin installation.
Alternative solution might be to update `origin` remote in the
installed plugin after calling `vim.pack.update()`. Although, doable,
this 1) requires more code; and 2) works only for Git plugins (which
might be not the only type of plugins in the future). Automatic
"delete and clean install" feels more robust.
Problem: Plain `vim.pack.add()` calls (with default `opts.load`) does
not fully work if called inside 'plugin/' runtime directory. In
particular, 'plugin/' files of newly added plugins are not sourced.
This is because `opts.load` is `false` during the whole startup, which
means `:packadd!` is used (modify 'runtimepath' but not force source
newly added 'plugin/' files).
This use case is common due to users organizing their config as
separate files in '~/.config/nvim/plugin/'.
Solution: Use newly added `v:vim_did_init` to decide default `opts.load`
value instead of `v:vim_did_enter`.
Problem: reuse_win will always jump to the first window containing the
target buffer rather even if the buffer is displayed in the current
window/tab
Solution: check to see if the buffer is already displayed in the
current window or any window of the current buffer
Problem:
- Exposing the raw config as table is a pattern not seen anywhere else
in the Nvim codebase.
- Old spellfile.vim docs still available, no new documentation
Solution:
- Exposing a `config()` function that both acts as "getter" and "setter"
is a much more common idiom (e.g. vim.lsp, vim.diagnostic).
- Add new documentation and link old docs to |spellfile.lua| instead of
|spellfile.vim|.
* feat(lua): `Range:is_empty()` to check vim.range emptiness
* fix(lsp): don't overlay insertion-style inline completions
**Problem:** Some servers commonly respond with an empty inline
completion range which acts as a position where text should be inserted.
However, the inline completion module assumes that all responses with a
range are deletions + insertions that thus require an `overlay` display
style. This causes an incorrect preview, because the virtual text should
have the `inline` display style (to reflect that this is purely an
insertion).
**Solution:** Only use `overlay` for non-empty replacement ranges.
Problem: Grid size check didn't account for border_width, causing
row index out of bounds when drawing bordered popup menu.
Solution: Check grid.rows against pum_height + border_width.
Problem: Resize events during startup may clear an active external
cmdline, which is then not redrawn.
UI2 VimResized autocommand does not work.
UI2 message appearance may be altered by inherited window
options. The message separator uses the wrong fillchar.
Solution: Unset cmdline_was_last_redrawn when clearing the screen, such
that cmdline_show is re-emitted.
Ensure set_pos function is called without arguments.
Ensure such options are unset. Use 'fillchars'->msgsep.
**Problem**:
Currently, whenever user get's on prompt-text area we move the user to
end of user-input area. As a result when left/c-left,home keys are
triggered at start of user-input the cursor get's placed at end of
user-input. But this behavior can be jarring and unintuitive also it's
different from previous behavior where it'd just stay at start of
input-area. Also, previously when insert-mode was triggered in
prompt-text with n_a for example then cursor was placed at start of
user-input area not at the end. So, that behavior was also broken.
**Solution:**
Restore previous behavior. Don't force user to end of user-input when
entering insert-mode from readonly section.
Problem: Confirmation buffer is named with `nvim-pack://` as scheme
prefix and uses buffer id (needed for in-process LSP) as one an entry
in the "hierarchical part".
Solution: Use `nvim://pack-confirm#<buf>` format with a more ubiquitous
`nvim://` prefix and buffer id at the end as the optional fragment.
Problem: In some areas plugin's revision is named "state". This might be
confusing for the users.
Solution: Consistently use "revision" to indicate "plugin's state on
disk".
Problem: Using abbreviated version of commit hashes might be unreliable
in the long term (although highly unlikely).
Solution: Use full hashes in lockfile and revision description (in
confirmation buffer and log). Keep abbreviated hashes when displaying
update changes (for brevity).
Problem:
In socket_connect(), if connecting to the given TCP address times out,
libuv is still trying to connect to the address, and connect_cb may be
called when running the libuv event loop after the `status` variable
referenced by `req.data` goes out of scope.
Solution:
Close the uv_tcp_t handle and wait for connect_cb to be called before
retrying or failing in socket_connect(). This also avoid leaking libuv
handles.
The tests added here only check that the non-timeout case still works,
as checking the timeout case is very hard without modifications to the
code. Removing the first LOOP_PROCESS_EVENT_UNTIL() in socket_connect()
(the one with the timeout) is a way to check that manually.
Also add a comment about the cause of the ASAN error in #34586.
