f533a17958 fix(pack): do not assert non-nil stderr #40544
Problem: On some systems `stderr` can be disabled. This results in not
  usable `vim.pack` since it asserted `stderr` to be non-nil.

Solution: Stop asserting non-nil `stderr`. The downside is that
  potential errors are not shown, but this is intentional since `stderr`
  is disabled on system level.

  Still assert non-nil `stdout` as its output is important for
  `vim.pack` to actually do its job. Disabled `stdout` is not something
  that can work with `vim.pack`.

a4cfded55e fix(health): always set 'modifiable' #40584
Problem:
When buffers are by default `nomodifiable`, such as when Nvim starts with
`-M`, the health buffer cannot be updated.

Solution:
Always set `modifiable` before modifying the buffer.

93dd8053ee fix(lsp): use LspNotify for document_color (#40575)
fix(lsp): use LspNotify for document_color #40571

Problem: The document_color lsp module was already using the capability
framework but was still using raw buffer events to handle requests and
reloading. This means that every keystroke was sending a document_color
request to the server since there was no debounce in the raw handlers.

Solution: Switch to using LspNotify autocmd events. LspNotify fires just
after new document versions are synced with the server and provides a
built in debounce mechanism for changes. It also provides the signal for
when the current state should be cleared (didClose). The detach part is
already handled by the capability framework.

Fixes #39785

822d96969b fix(lsp): request semantic tokens in BufWinEnter #40513
Problem: A previous refactor removed the BufWinEnter autocmd that
initiated a token request. When an LSP server sends a refresh
notification, then buffers that aren't shown in any window lost their
only trigger to request new tokens.

Solution: Add the BufWinEnter autocmd back which simply requests tokens
for all clients attached to the buffer.

ad5720eab9 vim-patch:9.2.0735: [security]: arbitrary Ex command execution during C omni-completion (#40441)
Problem:  [security]: With C omni-completion, a crafted tags file can execute
          arbitrary Ex commands when completing a struct/union member
          (cipher-creator)
Solution: Escape the type field before inserting it into the :vimgrep
          pattern so it cannot close the pattern and start a new command
          (Hirohito Higashi).

fa365cedad perf(treesitter): reduce memory usage of _select.lua #40409
Problem:  The table `history` in treesitter/_select.lua stores references
          to previously selected TSNodes, but a TSNode needs to keep its
          whole TSTree alive in memory, which may be kept alive even
          after closing the buffer to which this history corresponds.

Solution: Store just the bits of information from the TSNode we need to
          go back in selection history (the range and ID), without
          referencing the TSNode itself.

2b37c26477 fix(treesitter): incremental selection causes beeps when the bell is enabled #40414
Problem:  The function visual_select() in treesitter/_select.lua is
          executing `:normal! v<Esc>` to ensure that `gv` later goes
          back to character Visual mode, but doing so when mode() is
          already `v` first switches back to the Normal mode, then
          executes <Esc>, which causes a beep.
Solution: Check if the mode() is already `v` and avoid any switching in
          that case.

fd27246f67 fix(lsp): skip invalid file watcher globs #40376 #40396

bf8d0bef16 fix(lsp): fire LspNotify didChange autocmds after undo/redo #40404
Problem: LspNotify autocmds were not being triggered for didChange
requests when being used during undo/redo (and possibly other) actions.
autocmds are blocked when calling on_lines() callbacks while doing the
undo/redo action.

Solution: Defer firing the autocmd until after the action is complete.
This is closer to what existed before, but now there's a check in the
deferred function to only fire the autocmd if the client is still
active and the buffer is still attached, if applicable.

3dd3a6ceab backport: fix(lsp): make LspNotify more robust (#40341)
Problem: LspNotify never passed a buffer when executing the autocmds, so
buffer-local LspNotify autocmd subscriptions didn't have the correct buf
in the event metadata. It was also wrapped in a schedule() so the actual
autocmd was delayed until after the event loop.

This could result in the wrong buffer receiving the notification if
multiple LspNotify autocmds with buffer filters were added. Only the
"latest" one would actually receive non-buffer-filtered autocmds, not
the matching one. It also caused listeners to receive the notification
"out of sync" with when the notification is actually sent. If a buffer
is being deleted (which fires a textDocument/didClose notification), the
notification is scheduled and fired after the buffer is already gone.

Solution: For LSP notifications that pertain to a particular buffer, set
it when executing the LspNotify autocmds so the callback functions that
are filtered on that buffer will get the correct notifications and the
metadata buf field will be correct. Additionally, there is no need to
wrap the LspNotify callback in vim.schedule when it can be called inline
when the notification to the rpc server is fired.

This is tested by removing now-unnecessary autocmds from semantic tokens
(InsertEnter and BufWinEnter should no longer be necessary now that
requests are fired by LspNotify). Without this fix, simply modifying a
buffer doesn't actually trigger LspNotify correctly, and the test for
that fails.

41dbb828bd backport: fix(lsp): fix multiline semantic token processing (#40340)
Problem: When multiline semantic token support was introduced, the loop
that finds the end line for a particular token didn't sanitize the token
length sent back by the LSP server. If the server returned an overflowed
length (near uint32 max), neovim would burn cpu and loop for an
extremely long time while trying to find the "end line" represented by
the massively large token, causing neovim to seemingly hang.

Solution: Stop looping once the calculated end_line reaches the actual
last line of the buffer.

Fixes #36257

5c38490806 fix(lsp): allow specifying bufnr + client_id filter when enabling capabilities #37690
Today there is a constraint that these arguments to the enable filter be
mutually exclusive, but I do not know why such a constraint exists (it
is perfectly reasonable to want to enable a capabilility for just one
buffer and just one client).

dffacf5c9d fix(man.lua): highlight codeblocks #40310
Problem:
:Man does not syntax highlight codeblocks (injected language).

Analysis:
init_pager() swapped pcall(parse_ref, ref) return values order, so
vim.b.man_sect was set to the manpage name instead of the section
number, so C syntax highlighting did not load.

Solution:
Swap the calls.

0b134d8b23 fix(messages): message kind for :recover and swapfile attention #39444
Problem:  No message kind and multiple events for :recover and
          (non-prompt) swapfile attention messages.
Solution: Assign these the "list_cmd" and "wmsg" kind.

527c7c8c6b fix(messages): "progress" kind for busy messages #39280
Problem:  The "Scanning:" completion, bufwrite, and indent (there may be
          more) messages which indicate progress can use the "progress" kind
          for their msg_show event. Indent message does not have a kind.

Solution: Emit these messages with the "progress" kind. Set the message id
          to the replaced kind so that a UI knows to replace it (and to provide
          a migration path in case a UI was distinguishing these messages for
          whatever reason).

fec4045601 backport: feat(lsp): clean up semantic token initialization and debounce #40266
Problem: The refactor to use Capability left around some cruft and
semi-broken configuration for debounce.

Solution: Clean up now-unnecessary helper methods and simplify
deprecated ones to pass through to the non-deprecated ones. `debounce`
now defaults to 200 for all buffers but is overridable via the
deprecated start() method, which continues to take the max value
specified for any client attached to the buffer.

If we wish to expose changing the debounce in a non-deprecated way, we
will need to consider a "configuration" function, or even a bespoke
method to set the debounce time on the main metaclass (or provide
options to override for a particular buffer). General configuration of
specific LSP features is an as-of-yet unsolved problem.

55205b3231 backport: feat(lsp): use LspNotify for semantic tokens (#40242)
feat(lsp): use LspNotify for semantic tokens

Problem: The semantic token module is using its own debounce timer for
the buffer on_lines event. If its internal debounce is shorter than the
changetracking module's debounce, it's possible for semantic token
requests to fire for changed buffers before the textDocument/didChange
notification is sent to the server.

Solution: Trigger semantic token requests from the LspNotify autocmd
when the method is the didChange or didOpen notifications, which
enforces a strict happens-before relationship for the sync change
notification followed by a semantic token request.

Note: There is still an internal debounce mechanism in the semantic
token module to handle other debouncing needs specific to its
functionality, such as debouncing server refresh notifications and
handling WinScrolled events when using range requests.

dc6a9170eb backport: fix(lsp): trailing blank line when edit inserts past end of buffer (#40176)
Problem:
A text edit positioned entirely past the last buffer line, with
newText ending in a newline, leaves a stray blank line: the
past-the-end path appends the trailing empty fragment produced by
vim.split() and does not set has_eol_text_edit, so the end-of-buffer
cleanup is skipped. Formatting servers emit such edits whenever
formatting moves text to the end of a document.

Regression from ec94014cd1 (#20137), which split the past-the-end
fast path off the clamp path that sets the flag.

Solution:
Set has_eol_text_edit in the past-the-end path, like the adjacent
path that clamps end_row.

ecda67662f backport fix(lsp): refresh codelens despite pending debounce #40177
Problem:
When a server sends workspace/codeLens/refresh while an automatic codelens
request is already scheduled, Nvim ignores the server refresh. This can leave
rendered codelens text stale until another buffer edit triggers a new request.

Solution:
Cancel the pending automatic request and send the server-requested refresh
immediately. This preserves request coalescing while giving explicit server
refreshes priority.

fded370b3e perf(lsp): overscan semantic_token range requests #40036
Problem:
Flickering may occur when paging up/down in big files, as ranges for semantic
tokens are requested. This happens with LSP servers like gopls which return
"/full" semantic tokens if the file is too big, where we fall back to
viewport-range token retrievals.

Solution:
Broaden the requested ranges to one viewport of "overscan" on each side plus
some padding if possible:

    (viewport_topline - viewport_height)..(viewport_botline + viewport_height)

ed7acd1391 fix(startup): use nvim.difftool for nvim -d only for directories #40185
Problem:
`nvim -u NONE -d <(xxd one) <(xxd two)` has weird behavior.
Process substitution `<(...)` is a pipe and not a seekable file.

Test case:

    cat /dev/random | head -c 10240 > one
    cp one two
    cat /dev/random | head -c 10240 >> two
    nvim -u NONE -d <(xxd one) <(xxd two)

Solution:
Workaround the issue by skipping `nvim.difftool` if the 2 args are not
directories; fall-through to the builtin diff handling.

be4e7cfd6a fix(vim.hl): range(0,…) highlight not cleared after buffer-switch #40130
Problem:
When `vim.hl.range(0, …, { timeout = N })` is called, the deferred
`range_hl_clear` captures `buf=0`, which resolves to an arbitrary
"current buffer" at timeout. This may cause a stale highlight that never
gets cleared.

Solution:
Resolve `buf=0` explicitly, before `range_hl_clear` captures it.

b9d39f5bb2 fix(vim.fs): fs.dir() may return nil "type" on some filesystems #39749
Problem:
Currently, only some filesystems (Btrfs, ext2, ext3, ext4) have full
support of accessing the `dirent` entry-type. On other filesystems,
`uv.fs_scandir_next` may return `nil` for an existing but unsupported
entry-type.

This means consumers (such as `fs.dir()`), cannot know if `nil` means
"non-existent" or "unsupported".

Solution:
Fall back to `uv.fs_lstat` when `etype` is `nil`; return "unknown" if it
fails.

b05675bccc backport: opts.scope in vim.ui.input (#39906)
feat(ui): vim.ui.input(opts.scope) #39570

Problem: There is no way for a `vim.ui.input` caller to indicate for
  which scope the input is. As in "This input is for something at cursor
  scope". This information can be useful for `vim.ui.input`
  implementation to tweak its behavior and presentation:
  - Show different floating window depending on the scope. For example:
    - Near cursor for "cursor" scope.
    - At line start for "line" scope.
    - In window corner for "buffer" and "window" scopes.
    - In whole editor corner for "tabpage", "editor", "project" scopes.
  - Navigate through history only for inputs with the same scope.

Solution: Document new `opts.scope` for `vim.ui.input`. Use it in the
  codebase.

c8e0af85e0 vim-patch:9.2.0500: filetype: some html files wrongly recognized as htmlangular (#39880)
Problem:  filetype: some html files are wrongly recognized as htmlangular
Solution: Use the \< atom to anchor ng-template and ng-content to start
          of word (truffle)

Prevent false-positive htmlangular detection on words containing
'ng-template' or 'ng-content' as a substring (e.g. 'song-template',
'sing-content'). Anchor both branches with \< to require a word start,
matching the \<DTD\s\+XHTML\s idiom used five lines below.

98098d8466 fix(startup): emitting useless OptionSet
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.

f62ce1a42f fix(difftool): handle filenames containing spaces #39740
Problem:
Using the `DiffTool` plugin (e.g. through `nvim -d ...` or `:DiffTool
<file1> <file2>` fails if a space is in one of the paths. This occurs
because the `diff` wraps the paths with quotes (`'`) if space
characters are present, which the line diff regex fails to parse.

Solution:
Update regex to handle quoted paths by matching the string within the
quotes, if it exists.

10695f44af fix(health): set 'tags' for help filetype #39742
Problem:
The `:checkhealth` buffer uses the help syntax, so help tag links (e.g.
`|clipboard|`) are highlighted like they are in help buffers. However,
unlike in help buffers, `CTRL-]` doesn't jump to the relevant help file.

I expect that if the `:checkhealth` buffer looks like a help buffer,
then it should behave like one where it makes sense. This comment from
/r/neovim suggests that this was the intention:
https://www.reddit.com/r/neovim/comments/5ghv3r/see_clipboard_how/dascnry/.

Solution:
Set `'tags'` in `checkhealth` buffers so that `:tag` and friends look
for tags in the help tags files.

79fd0b6655 fix(vim.range): empty ranges semantics vs regular ranges #39474
Problem:
- Empty ranges have different `<`, `<=`, `has` and `intersect` semantics compared to regular ranges.
- `to_inclusive_pos` assumes that the end position of a range is exclusive, which is not true for empty ranges

Solution:
Special case empty ranges in these operations.

b3cd33d029 backport feat(tui): restore 'ttyfast' to control tty requests (#39667)
feat(tui): restore 'ttyfast' to control tty requests

Problem:
When running nvim on a remote machine over SSH, if there is high ping,
then bg detection may not complete in time. This results in a warning
every time nvim is started. #38648

Solution:
Restore 'ttyfast' option and allow it to control whether or not bg
detection is performed. Because this is during startup and before any
user config or commands, we use the environment variable
`NVIM_NOTTYFAST` to allow disabling `ttyfast` during initialization.
