Problem: completion: cannot complete user cmd :K with 'ignorecase'
(rendcrx)
Solution: Skip the short-circuit when 'ignorecase' is set
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
The set_cmd_index() short-circuit for the :k command treats ":k<X>" as
":k {X}" (mark argument), which makes ":kz<Tab>" never reach the
command-name expansion path. With 'ignorecase' the same prefix on other
letters (":gz<Tab>") completes a user command like :Gz, so the result is
inconsistent. Skip the short-circuit when 'ignorecase' is set; default
behaviour is preserved so the existing :k tests still pass.

Problem:
Followup to #39858. close_windows returned a holder window just so
do_buffer_ext could retry there, but the non-float branch was dead code
and close_windows was called twice.
Solution:
Check one_window directly in do_buffer_ext, drop the holder, make
close_windows void again.

Problem:
(Followup to 54f22a8f01c0feb27a531b52aedf5cdbd5e51b24.)
Deleting another buffer from a floatwin could move focus into the holder
window and fire BufEnter for the buffer being deleted.
Solution:
Use switch_win_noblock() instead of buf_jump_open_win() before
recursing into do_buffer_ext().
Problem:
Potential documentation drift in `tui.txt` if fields for
`$NVIM_TERMDEFS` change.
Solution:
Generate docs for `tui.txt`. Add `brief_xform` to `gen_vimdoc.lua` to
allow transforming briefs during generation.
Problem: home_replace() function can be improved
Solution: Refactor home_replace() to return the length of the string
(John Marriott).
In addition:
- in function set_b0_fname() move ulen into the block where it is used.
- In function findswapname() rework logic around displaying "swap file
already exists" dialogue so that literal message text is set once.

Problem: If there are pending messages when starting to build the
runtime search path, a msg_show callback may invoke
runtime_search_path_validate() recursively.
Solution: Avoid msg_show callback by ensuring messages are flushed.
Problem:
Virtual lines above a line where a fold starts show `foldopen` in
`foldcolumn`.
Solution:
Check if the line below the virtual one is inside a fold that starts
higher up or if it's the start of a fold. In the latter case, don't show
anything in `foldcolumn` for the virtual line.
refactor: lint
text-object-define is a pattern I found in tpope's plugins (e.g.
https://github.com/tpope/vim-jdaddy) which shows an elegant way to
define a text-object. (Any mistakes in the example are my fault.)
Problem: `nvim_exec_autocmds({ buf = ... })` matches the target buffer, but callbacks and modelines run with the caller buffer current rather than the target buffer.
Solution: Execute the buffered path in prepared target-buffer context and restore the caller afterward.
This fixes all clang 22 warnings of the form: "warning: diagnostic behavior
may be improved by adding the 'format(printf, 3, 4)' attribute to the
declaration of 'some_function'"
dialog_msg() was essentially a NULL-handling wrapper. but some callsites
already use their own NULL handling or NULL:s are impossible as the
value has already been assumed non-NULL. Non-locally assuming
a buffer size is also a code smell, especially if we can
just use "sizeof buff" without a wrapper.
append_redir() is... whatever it is.
Problem:
When mouse=n is set
- Dragging the mouse enters visual mode, and then stops listening for
mouse events.
- Double/Triple/Quad clicking performs selections.
- Clicking in visual mode moves the cursor (though not through the TUI).
Solution:
Explicitly gate mouse actions that affect visual mode with a check for
MOUSE_VISUAL. This matches the behavior described in :help mouse.
> If enabled for "v" (Visual mode) then double-click selects word-wise,
> triple-click makes it line-wise, and quadruple-click makes it
> rectangular block-wise.
Problem:
`aucmd_restbuf` must be guarded in case `aucmd_prepbuf` wasn't called.
Solution:
Update `aucmd_restbuf` to be a no-op if `aucmd_prepbuf` wasn't called.
This requires `aco` to be zero-initialized.
Problem:
Visual selection could end up in the wrong place after
nvim_buf_set_text or nvim_buf_set_lines. In some delete cases,
Visual.lnum was already clamped before the line shift happened, so the
adjustment got skipped.
Solution:
Split fix_cursor_cols into reusable fix_pos_col logic and reuse it
for Visual updates. Also adjust Visual.lnum before changed_lines so
the shift uses the original position before final clamping.
Problem:
Various "unused function" warnings when building `map_defs.h`.
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/26452
Solution:
Removed unused `MAP_DECLS(T, U)` specializations, their generated symbols, and
2 obsolete constants.
Problem: User commands cannot handle single args with spaces
Solution: Add the -nargs=_ attribute (Maxim Kim)
-nargs=_ allow user commands to have a single argument with spaces.
For example given the following Test command and TestComplete function:
```
vim9script
def TestComplete(A: string, _: string, _: number): list<string>
var all = ["qqqq", "aaaa", "qq aa"]
return all->matchfuzzy(A)
enddef
command! -nargs=_ -complete=customlist,TestComplete Test echo <q-args>
```
`:Test q a<tab>` should successfully complete `qq aa`

Problem:
- Windows users can't use terminfo to configure their terminal
capabilities. #37274
- Terminfo definitions sometimes get out of date or are simply
inaccurate.
- Eventually, we may want to drop terminfo, relying primarily on
built-in definitions. Users will still need some flexibility.
Solution:
Support $NVIM_TERMDEFS environment variable, which is JSON data that
defines "terminfo" definitions that override our builtin terminfo.
Problem:
During startup, we manually trigger a useless and misleading `OptionSet`
event, which doesn't set `v:option_*` values (this is a limitation of
`nvim_exec_autocmds`).
ad4bc2d90c/runtime/lua/vim/_core/defaults.lua (L939).
Solution:
The `nvim_exec_autocmds('OptionSet',…)` call does not serve any purpose
since 5cbb9d613b, so just drop it.
Problem: `fnamemodify(..., ':h')` mishandles POSIX leading slash runs longer than `//`.
Solution: Collapse those slash runs to `/` before computing the head.
Problem:
2d795face6 added support for tab-local options ('cmdheight')
to `nvim_get_option_value`, but not to:
nvim_get_option_info2()
nvim_set_option_value(…, { tab = … })
gettabwinvar()
Solution:
- Update `options.lua` to model tab-local options. Introduce `kOptScopeTab`.
- Handle tab scope in the options layer so it works for all options APIs.
Note:
- No change to `gettabvar()`. Not sure if needed/wanted.
fix https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/31140
Problem:
No way to handle a "tab moved" event.
Use-case: tabline plugins may cache tab labels, and need to know when to
invalidate their cache.
Solution:
Add a `TabMoved` event that triggers whenever tabs are reordered via `:tabmove`
or via mouse click-and-drag.
Problem:
After closing and reopening Neovim, ]' and [' fail with E92: Buffer 0
not found for marks restored from ShaDa. Direct jumps like 'a work
because mark_get_local() rewrites fnum before returning, but ]' uses
getnextmark() which does not, leaving fnum = 0.
Solution:
Set .fnum = buf->b_fnum when restoring local marks from ShaDa.
Problem: with a float focused and the target buf only shown in the
last non-float window, do_buffer_ext goes down the buf != curbuf
path. close_windows can't touch the last non-float, b_nwindows stays
> 0, close_buffer is skipped, returns OK silently.
Solution: if a non-float still holds buf after close_windows, jump
into it and recurse. Then buf == curbuf and the existing replacement
path takes over.
Problem:
There is a lot of overlap between terminal and prompt buffer, but no
easy way to limit the number of lines kept above the prompt to prevent
performance and other issues. This is desirable for both example
use cases in current documentation, chat UI and repl/shell plugins.
Solution:
Use existing 'scrollback' option to limit prompt-buffer lines
as well.

Problem:
API clients cannot query the tab-local value of 'cmdheight'.
Solution:
Allow nvim_get_option_value() to accept { tab = <tab-ID> } for 'cmdheight'.
Problem: matchfuzzy() can crash on long multi-word patterns.
Solution: Clamp pat_chars to maxMatches and stop before calling
match_positions() when the buffer is full (glepnir).

Define `:packupdate` and `:packdel` as separate commands instead of a
unified `:pack {subcommand}` because the semantics between the two
commands vary differently enough that it doesn't make sense to combine
them. Additionally, `:pack! update/del` looks bad.

Problem:
Many color schemes assume the Comment hl group is dim text and use it
for secondary text, decorations, or parts of UI. This is true for many
color schemes but not all.
Solution:
Introducing a new highlight group with a more specific meaning, similar
to Underlined or Ignore.
The new group links to Comment by default so the behavior is unchanged
for color schemes that don't define it.

Problem:
The Lua test harness still ran through standalone -ll mode, so tests
depended on the low-level Lua path instead of the regular Nvim Lua
environment. That also meant os.exit() coverage had to carry an ASAN
workaround because Lua's raw process exit skipped Nvim teardown and let
LeakSanitizer interfere with the observed exit code.
Solution:
Run the harness and related fixtures with nvim -l. Patch os.exit() in
the main Lua state to exit through getout(), so scripts observe normal
Nvim shutdown while standalone -ll remains available for generator-style
scripts. As a consequence, the startup test can assert os.exit() without
disabling leak detection.
