feat(exrc): search exrc in parent directories
Problem:
`.nvim.lua` is only loaded from current directory, which is not flexible
when working from a subfolder of the project.
Solution:
Also search parent directories for configuration file.
Tag folding poses a few difficulties. Many elements, e.g.
"blockquote", are always delimited by start and end tags;
end tags for some elements, e.g. "p", can be omitted in
certain contexts; void elements, e.g. "hr", have no end tag.
Although the rules for supporting omissible end tags are
ad-hoc and involved, they apply to elements in scope.
Assuming syntactical wellformedness, an end tag can be
associated with its nearest matching start tag discoverable
in scope and towards the beginning of a file, whereas all
unbalanced tags and inlined tags can be disregarded.
For example:
------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"> <!-- >1 : 1 -->
<body> <!-- >2 : 2 -->
<p>Paragraph vim/vim#1. <!-- = : 2 -->
<p> <!-- >3 : 3 -->
Paragraph vim/vim#2. <!-- = : 3 -->
</p> <!-- <3 : 3 -->
<p>Paragraph vim/vim#3.</p> <!-- = : 2 -->
</body> <!-- <2 : 2 -->
</html> <!-- <1 : 1 -->
------------------------------------------------------------
(HTML comments here, "<!-- ... -->", record two values for
each folded line that are separated by ":", a value obtained
from "&foldexpr" and a value obtained from "foldlevel()".)
Innermost foldedable tags will be flattened. For example:
------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"> <!-- >1 : 1 -->
<body> <!-- >2 : 2 -->
<div class="block"> <!-- >3 : 3 -->
<pre><code> <!-- >4 : 4 -->
[CODE SNIPPET] <!-- = : 4 -->
</code></pre> <!-- <4 : 4 -->
</div> <!-- <3 : 3 -->
</body> <!-- <2 : 2 -->
</html> <!-- <1 : 1 -->
------------------------------------------------------------
No folding will be requested for the "<code>"-"</code>" tag
pair and reflected by "&foldexpr" because such a fold would
have claimed the same lines that the immediate fold of the
"<pre>"-"</pre>" tag already claims.
Run-on folded tags may confuse Vim. When a file such as:
------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"> <!-- >1 : 1 -->
<body> <!-- >2 : 2 -->
<div class="block"> <!-- >3 : 3 -->
<pre> <!-- >4 : 4 -->
<code> <!-- >5 : 5 -->
[CODE SNIPPET vim/vim#1] <!-- = : 5 -->
</code> <!-- <5 : 5 -->
</pre> <!-- <4 : 4 -->
</div> <!-- <3 : 3 -->
<!-- = : 3 -->
<div class="block"> <!-- >3 : 3 -->
<pre> <!-- >4 : 4 -->
<code> <!-- >5 : 5 -->
[CODE SNIPPET vim/vim#2] <!-- = : 5 -->
</code> <!-- <5 : 5 -->
</pre> <!-- <4 : 4 -->
</div> <!-- <3 : 3 -->
</body> <!-- <2 : 2 -->
</html> <!-- <1 : 1 -->
------------------------------------------------------------
is reformatted as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"> <!-- >1 : 1 -->
<body> <!-- >2 : 2 -->
<div class="block"> <!-- >3 : 3 -->
<pre> <!-- >4 : 4 -->
<code> <!-- >5 : 5 -->
[CODE SNIPPET vim/vim#1] <!-- = : 5 -->
</code> <!-- <5 : 5 -->
</pre> <!-- <4 : 4 -->
</div><div class="block"><pre><code> <!-- <3 : 3 -->
[CODE SNIPPET vim/vim#2] <!-- = : 2 ? -->
</code> <!-- <5 : 2 ? -->
</pre> <!-- <4 : 2 ? -->
</div> <!-- <3 : 2 ? -->
</body> <!-- <2 : 2 -->
</html> <!-- <1 : 1 -->
------------------------------------------------------------
"&foldexpr" values will not be used as is for the lines
between (and including) "[CODE SNIPPET vim/vim#2]" and "</div>".
(Cf. v9.1.0002.)
Having syntax highlighting in effect, tag folding using the
"fold-expr" method can be enabled with:
------------------------------------------------------------
let g:html_expr_folding = 1
------------------------------------------------------------
By default, tag folding will be redone from scratch after
each occurrence of a TextChanged or an InsertLeave event.
Such frequency may not be desired, especially for large
files, and this recomputation can be disabled with:
------------------------------------------------------------
let g:html_expr_folding_without_recomputation = 1
doautocmd FileType
------------------------------------------------------------
To force another recomputation, do:
------------------------------------------------------------
unlet! b:foldsmap
normal zx
------------------------------------------------------------

Problem: Unable to discern windows used by the extui interface
to configure their local options.
'winblend' may be detrimental to legibility depending on the
colorscheme and 'background'.
Solution: Assign the "cmdline", "msgmore", "msgprompt" and "msgbox"
'filetype' to the respective windows.
Don't set 'winblend' for the message "box" window.
Problem: Extui does not route messages emitted as a result of a typed
command to the "more" window.
Command message leading shell messages is missing a kind.
Messages not routed to 'cmdheight' area after it was 0.
Solution: Route messages that were emitted in the same event loop as an
entered command to the "more" window. Also append multiple
messages in an already open more-window.
Assign it the `shell_cmd` kind.
Change message position when 'cmdheight' changes from 0.
Problem: Currently, 'smartcase' is respected when completing keywords
using <C-N>, <C-P>, <C-X><C-N>, and <C-X><C-P>. However, when
a user continues typing and the completion menu is filtered
using cached matches, 'smartcase' is not applied. This leads
to poor-quality or irrelevant completion suggestions, as shown
in the example below.
Solution: When filtering cached completion items after typing additional
characters, apply case-sensitive comparison if 'smartcase' is
enabled and the typed pattern includes uppercase characters.
This ensures consistent and expected completion behavior.

Problem:
`any[]` means nothing, and the return value is not the same as what's
documented in the comment (eg, Lua returns `{ "row", { { "leaf", 1000 },
{ "leaf", 1001 } } }`, not `{ "row", { "leaf", 1000, "leaf", 1001 } }`)
Solution:
Create two classes (vim.fn.winlayout.leaf and vim.fn.winlayout.branch)
and one alias that links the two together.
Also: Due to LuaLS limitations, there is an empty class,
vim.fn.winlayout.empty

Problem: Using `<C-W>w`, `<C-W>W` or the ":wincmd" variants with a count can
enter unfocusable or hidden floating windows. This is especially problematic
when using the new in-development extui, which creates many unfocusable floats
for various UI elements.
Solution: Skip unfocusable and hidden floating windows. Instead, skip to the
next focusable, non-hidden window in the current tabpage's window list. Reword
the documentation a bit (hopefully an improvement?)
Problem:
No way to check if a LSP config is enabled without causing it to
resolve. E.g. `vim.lsp.config['…'] ~= nil` will resolve the config,
which could be an unwanted and somewhat expensive side-effect.
Solution:
Introduce `vim.lsp.is_enabled()`.
- Add missing diagnostics virtual lines hl groups.
- Fix LSP dynamic registration example; curbuf may not actually be attached to
the client, and it may be attached to many such buffers.
Problem:
stderr messages from executing ":!cmd" show up with
highlight hl-ErrorMsg. But some shell utilites use stderr for debug
logging, progress updates, etc.
Solution:
Highlight shell command outputs hl-StderrMsg and hl-StdoutMsg.
Problem: We have an unmaintained Vimscript parser and cmdline
highlighting mechanism, with which it is hard to leverage the
treesitter highlighter. Long messages result in a hit-enter-prompt.
Solution: Implement a vim.ui_attach() UI, that replaces the message
grid (orphaning some 3000+ LOC core C code). Introduce an experimental
vim._extui module, because removing the message grid at the same time is
too risky. The new UI leverages the bundled treesitter highlighter and
parser for Vimscript, as well as the matchparen plugin, to highlight the
cmdline. Messages are truncated in the cmdline area, or placed in a
floating message box in the bottom right corner. Special ("list_cmd")
messages and the message history are shown in a, "more prompt" (now a
fully interactive regular window). Various default UI elements ('showcmd',
'ruler') are also placed in the cmdline area, as virtual text.
`require('vim._extui').enable({})` enables the experimental UI.
`{ msg.pos = 'box' }` or `:set cmdheight=0` enables the message
box variant.
Followup:
- Come to a consensus for how best to represent messages (by default).
- Start removing message grid when this is deemed a successful replacement.
When that is finished, make this new UI the default and update a lot of tests.
NEW BUILD SYSTEM!
This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary,
including cross-compilation for some targets.
As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from
an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa
Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux
x86_64 only
Follow up items:
- praxis for version and dependency bumping
- windows 💀
- full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to)
- update help and API metadata files
- installation into a $PREFIX
- more tests and linters
Problem:
virtual_text diagnostics are great when skimming a file, and
virtual_lines are great when "zooming in" on a particular problem.
Having both enabled results in duplicate diagnostics on-screen.
Solution:
This PR expands the behavior of `current_line` for virtual_text and
virtual_lines by making `virtual_text.current_line = false` distinct
from `nil`. If you set:
vim.diagnostic.config({
virtual_text = { current_line = false },
virtual_lines = { current_line = true },
})
With this configuration, virtual_text will be used to display
diagnostics until the cursor reaches the same line, at which point they
will be hidden and virtual_lines will take its place.
Problem:
Directories that are "trusted" by `vim.secure.read()`, are not detectable later
(they will prompt again). https://github.com/neovim/neovim/discussions/33587#discussioncomment-12925887
Solution:
`vim.secure.read()` returns `true` if the user trusts a directory.
Also fix other bugs:
- If `f:read('*a')` returns `nil`, we treat that as a successful read of
the file, and hash it. `f:read` returns `nil` for directories, but
it's also documented as returning `nil` "if it cannot read data with the
specified format". I reworked the implementation so we explicitly
treat directories differently. Rather than hashing `nil` to put in the
trust database, we now put "directory" in there explicitly*.
- `vim.secure.trust` (used by `:trust`) didn't actually work for
directories, as it would blindly read the contents of a netrw buffer
and hash it. Now it uses the same codepath as `vim.secure.read`, and
as a result, works correctly for directories.
HTML tags in Javadoc comments can additionally be folded
after applying
------------------------------------------------------------
let g:html_syntax_folding = 1
set foldmethod=syntax
------------------------------------------------------------
and giving explicit consent with
------------------------------------------------------------
let g:java_consent_to_html_syntax_folding = 1
------------------------------------------------------------
Do not default to this kind of folding unless ALL start tags
and optional end tags are balanced in Javadoc comments;
otherwise, put up with creating runaway folds that break
syntax highlighting.

Problem: UIs implementing ext_cmdline/message must also implement
ext_popupmenu in order to get cmdline completion with
wildoptions+=pum.
Solution: Allow marking a window as the ext_cmdline window through
nvim_open_win(), including prompt offset. Anchor the cmdline-
completion popupmenu to this window.
* feat(shada): don't store jumplist if '0 in 'shada'
* fix(shada): don't store search and sub patterns if /0 in 'shada'
* fix(shada): don't store empty replacement string
* fix(shada): don't add '0' mark if f0 in 'shada'
- sort fields alphabetically.
- in the `vim.lsp.Client` docs, reference `vim.lsp.ClientConfig` instead
of duplicating its docs.
- cleanup lots of redundant-yet-drifted field docs.
Problem:
`FileType` event is fired before checkhealth report is finished, so
user can't override report settings or contents.
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/33172#issuecomment-2833513916
Solution:
- Trigger FileType event later.
- Document how to remove emojis.
Problem:
There are some "boilerplate" steps for new users. Although we are
constantly improving defaults and lifting patterns into core, users
eventually want to know how to start their own config, add plugins, etc.
Solution:
Add `runtime/example_init.lua` and refer to it from docs.
Problem: Cannot define completion triggers and act upon it
Solution: add the new option 'isexpand' and add the complete_match()
function to return the completion matches according to the
'isexpand' setting (glepnir)
Currently, completion trigger position is determined solely by the
'iskeyword' pattern (\k\+$), which causes issues when users need
different completion behaviors - such as triggering after '/' for
comments or '.' for methods. Modifying 'iskeyword' to include these
characters has undesirable side effects on other Vim functionality that
relies on keyword definitions.
Introduce a new buffer-local option 'isexpand' that allows specifying
different completion triggers and add the complete_match() function that
finds the appropriate start column for completion based on these
triggers, scanning backwards from cursor position.
This separation of concerns allows customized completion behavior
without affecting iskeyword-dependent features. The option's
buffer-local nature enables per-filetype completion triggers.
