Problem: Put in Visual mode cannot be repeated.
Solution: Use "P" to put without yanking the deleted text into the unnamed
register. (Shougo Matsushita, closesvim/vim#9591)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/fb55207ed17918c8a2a6cadf5ad9d5fcf686a7ab
Cherry-pick get_y_previous() and set_y_previous() from patch 8.1.1736.
Nvim has removed y_current, so code related to it is N/A.
Problem: Fuzzy matching only works on strings.
Solution: Support passing a dict. Add matchfuzzypos() to also get the match
positions. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6947)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/4f73b8e9cc83f647b34002554a8bdf9abec0a82f
Also remove some N/A and seemingly useless NULL checks -- Nvim allocs can't
return NULL. I'm not sure why the retmatchpos stuff in match_fuzzy checks for
NULL too, given that Vim checks for NULL alloc in do_fuzzymatch; assert that the
li stuff is not NULL as that's the one check I'm ever-so-slightly unsure about.
Adjust tests. Note that the text_cb tests actually throw E6000 in Nvim, but we
also can't assert that error due to v8.2.1183 not being ported yet.
Problem: Cannot do fuzzy string matching.
Solution: Add matchfuzzy(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6932)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/635414dd2f3ae7d4d972d79b806348a6516cb91a
Adjust Test_matchfuzzy's 2nd assert to expect the last error thrown, as
v8.2.1183 hasn't been ported yet (to be honest, the error message is kinda weird
if the 2nd argument is not convertible to string). We can still port this fully
as porting v8.2.1183 would require removing this change to pass CI.
Problem: pathshorten() only supports using one character.
Solution: Add an argument to control the length. (closesvim/vim#7006)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/6a33ef0deb5c75c003a9f3bd1c57f3ca5e77327e
Cherry-pick a line in test from patch 8.2.0634.
Use Nvim's config paths in docs.
shorten_dir() returning a pointer looks a bit confusing here, as it is
actually the same pointer passed to it, and it doesn't really reduce
much code, so change it back to void.
Assigning rettv->vval.v_string = NULL is not needed if a pointer is
within 64 bits. While this is usually the case, I'm not sure if it can
be taken for granted.
Problem: A popup created with "cursorline" will ignore "firstline".
Solution: When both "cursorline" and "firstline" are present put the cursor
on "firstline". (closesvim/vim#7000) Add the "winid" argument to
getcurpos().
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/99ca9c4868bb1669706b9e3de9a9218bd11cc459
Skip popup window related code.
Cherry-pick all of Test_getcurpos_setpos() from patch 8.2.0610.
Problem: Crash when using garbagecollect() in between rand().
Solution: Redesign the rand() and srand() implementation. (Yasuhiro
Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#5587, closesvim/vim#5588)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/4f645c54efe33d7a11e314676e503118761f08a7
Omit test_srand_seed.
Unmacroify SHUFFLE_XOSHIRO128STARSTAR and SPLITMIX32 while we're at it (leave
ROTL alone as it's fairly innocent).
Problem: Random number generator in Vim script is slow.
Solution: Add rand() and srand(). (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#1277)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/06b0b4bc27077013e9b4b48fd1d9b33e543ccf99
Add missing method call usage to builtin.txt.
vim_time and test_settime is N/A.
Add a modeline to test_random.vim.
Use typval_T* over listitem_T* vars so we don't need to use TV_LIST_ITEM_TV all
over the place...
Remove NULL list checks (tv_list_len covers this).
Problem: No reduce() function.
Solution: Add a reduce() function. (closesvim/vim#5481)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/85629985b71035608a37ba3bde86968481490d46
Needs CHECK_LIST_MATERIALIZE from v8.2.0751 (and range_list_materialize from
8.2.0149).
Move e_reduceempty to funcs.c, as it's only used there. Make it static.
Use tv_blob_len, tv_list_len == 0 for empty checks.
Replace vim_memset(&funcexe, 0, ...) with FUNCEXE_INIT.
Leave li initially undefined (tv_list_first returns NULL if list is NULL).
This patch has a memory leak fixed by v8.2.0882.
Problem: The eval.txt help file is way too big.
Solution: Move the builtin function details to a separate file.
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/1cae5a0a034d0545360387407a7a409310f1efe2
Note: Neovim-specific references to |functions| were changed to
|builtin-functions|. This included updates to:
1. test/functional/vimscript/functions_spec.lua
2. test/functional/vimscript/eval_spec.lua
3. runtime/doc/lua.txt
These versions of python has reached End-of-life. getting rid
of python2 support removes a lot of logic to support two
incompatible python versions in the same version.
An extra backtick was explicitly written to show what a backtick looked
like, but it interferes with the syntax highlighting which thinks that
it's a part of a concealed group and couples it with the wrong backtick.
