This is a breaking change which will make refactor of typval and shada
code a lot easier. In particular, code that would use or check for
v:msgpack_types.binary in the wild would be broken. This appears to be
rarely used in existing plugins.
Also some cases where v:msgpack_type.string would be used to represent a
binary string of "string" type, we use a BLOB instead, which is
vimscripts native type for binary blobs, and already was used for BIN
formats when necessary.
msgpackdump(msgpackparse(data)) no longer preserves the distinction
of BIN and STR strings. This is very common behavior for
language-specific msgpack bindings. Nvim uses msgpack as a tool to
serialize its data. Nvim is not a tool to bit-perfectly manipulate
arbitrary msgpack data out in the wild.
The changed tests should indicate how behavior changes in various edge
cases.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
`nvim_(get|set)_option_value` pick the current buffer / window by default for buffer-local/window-local (but not global-local) options. So specifying `buf = 0` or `win = 0` in opts is unnecessary for those options. This PR removes those to reduce code clutter.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
These tests contained errors due to synstack() and friends do not ensure
syntax state is fully synced. Actually expecting what the user will
see with a screen test does ensure it is fully synced.
Doing clear() multiple times in quick succession provokes the
`exit_event` race described in #8813.
- Avoid it by removing unnecessary reset() call.
- Replace unnecessary nested describe() blocks with it() blocks.

luassert uses 3 by default, which is often not enough.
Instead of documenting how to increase it, let's use a more fitting
(sane) default of 100 levels.
Use unique filenames to avoid test conflicts.
Use read_file() instead of io.popen(), to ensures the file is closed.
Use helpers.rmdir(), it is far more robust than lfs.
closes#7911
It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
The tests would leave the following test files in the root directory:
Xtest-functional-plugin-shada.shada
Xtest-functional-plugin-shada.shada.tmp.f
Clean them up in teardown().
Note: it looks like viminfo files do not store search direction intentionally.
After reading viminfo file search direction was considered to be “forward”.
Note 2: all files created on earlier Neovim version will automatically receive
“forward” direction.
Fixes#3580
