Problem: Current requirement is Git>=2.36 as `--also-filter-submodules`
flag for `git clone` was introduced there. This is problematic since
default Git version on Ubuntu 22.04 is 2.34.
Solution: Relax minimal Git version to be (at least) 2.0 by selectively
applying necessary flags based on the current Git version.
As 2.0.0 was released in 2014-05-28 (almost the same age as Neovim
project itself), it is reasonable to drop any mention and checks on
minimal version altogether.
Problem:
Nvim does not recognize URI scheme with numeric characters. While rare, there
are URIs that contain numbers (e.g. [ed2k://](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed2k_URI_scheme))
and characters like `+` (e.g. `svn+ssh`). I use it in
[distant.nvim](https://github.com/chipsenkbeil/distant.nvim) to support
multiple, distinct connections using `distant+1234://` as the scheme.
Otherwise, if you open a file with the same name & path on two different
machines from the same Nvim instance, their buffer names will conflict
when just using `distant://`.
Solution:
Adds full support for detecting URI scheme per
[RFC3986](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#section-3.1)
Problem: confusing that there is the tag `undo-tree` (the Vim
implementation) and `undotree` (the Lua plugin for visualization).
Solution: rename tag to undotree-plugin. Mention the plugin in the docs of
|undotree|.
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: 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: A plugin does not know when startup scripts were already
triggered. This is useful to determine if a function is
called inside vimrc or after (like when sourcing 'plugin/'
files).
Solution: Add the v:vim_did_init variable (Evgeni Chasnovski)
closes: vim/vim#18668https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/294bce21ee837aab209a1008d0efc3e305cf188f
Nvim has two more steps between sourcing startup scripts and loading
plugins. Set this variable after these two steps.

compile time features are hot again.
Note: this changes the &term value for builtin definition from
'builtin_xterm' to just 'xterm'. It's an xterm regardless of we use an
external definition or an internal. Prior to this commit the vast
majority of POSIX users will have used external terminfo, so plugins and
scripts are only going to have checked for &term == 'xterm' or 'tmux' or
whatever.
The status of external loading is still available in "nvim -V3" output.
Problem:
Previously, the fallback logic to ".conf" was located outside of
`vim.filetype.match()` and directly within the AutoCmd definition. As a
result, `vim.filetype.match()` would return nil instead of ".conf" for
fallback cases (#30100).
Solution:
Added a boolean return value to `vim.filetype.match()` that indicates
whether the match was the result of fallback. If true, the filetype will
be set using `setf FALLBACK <ft>` instead of `setf <ft>`.
Problem:
fe4faaf81a added an invalid "redirect" item, which caused the
assert() to fail, which then caused the neovim/doc/ CI to fail:
https://github.com/neovim/doc/actions/runs/18830779387/job/53721736276 :
The previous commit e69beb9b1a tried to fix a different issue, which
has gone hidden because the "invalid tags" failure has been present on
the neovim/doc/ but was silently failing.
invalid tags: {
["g:netrw_keepdir"] = "usr_22.txt",
netrw = "vi_diff.txt",
...
plugins = "editorconfig"
}
Solution:
- Fix the invalid redirect.
- Improve the redirects assertion.
Problem: Cmdline history not updated when mapping both <Up> and <CR>.
Solution: Consider the command typed when in Cmdline mode and there is
no pending input (zeertzjq).
Although the existing behavior technically does match documentation, the
"completely come from mappings" part is a bit ambiguous, because one may
argue that the command doesn't completely come from mappings as long as
the user has typed a key in Cmdline mode. I'm not entirely sure if this
change will cause problems, but it seems unlikely.

Problem: Inside `PackChanged[Pre]` callbacks it might be useful to tell
if the affected plugin is active or not. It is already possible via
extra `vim.pack.get({ 'plug-name' })[1].active`, but it is not quite
user-friendly for something that might be needed frequently in real
world use cases.
Solution: Supply extra `active` event data field.
