2a6c5bb0c4#5450 modeline: Handle version number overflow.
0ade1bb706#5225 CI tests now run against Windows!
API level is disconnected from NVIM version. The API metadata holds the
current API level, and the lowest backwards-compatible level supported
by this instance.
Release 0.1.6 is the first release that reports the Nvim version and API
level.
metadata['version'] = {
major: 0,
minor: 1,
patch: 6,
api_level: 1,
api_compatible: 0,
api_prerelease: false,
}
The API level may remain unchanged across Nvim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API,
- set NVIM_API_PRERELEASE to true
- increment NVIM_API_LEVEL (at most once per Nvim version)
- adjust NVIM_API_LEVEL_COMPAT if backwards-compatibility was broken
api_level_0.mpack was generated from Nvim 0.1.5 with:
nvim --api-info

The API level may remain unchanged across Neovim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API the CMake variable NVIM_API_PRERELEASE is set to
true, and NVIM_API_CURRENT/NVIM_API_COMPATIBILITY are incremented
accordingly.
The functional tests check the API table against fixtures of past
versions of Neovim. It compares all the functions in the old table with
the new one, it does ignore some metadata attributes that do not alter
the function signature or were removed since 0.1.5. Currently the only
fixture is 0.mpack, generated from Neovim 0.1.5 with nvim --api-info.
Closes#5449
A file containing the string "vim" followed by a very large number in a modeline
location will trigger an overflow in getdigits() which is called by
chk_modeline() when trying to parse the version number.
Add getdigits_safe(), which does not assert overflows, but reports them to the
caller.
vim-patch:7.4.2109
Problem: Setting 'display' to "lastline" is a drastic change, while
omitting it results in lots of "@" lines.
Solution: Add "truncate" to show "@@@" for a truncated line.

msg_putchar() is not updating msg_col, this causes an infinite loop. Observed
with execute('version') *nested* in another execute(), in particular this line:
let buildtype = matchstr(execute('version'), '\v\cbuild type:?\s*[^\n\r\t ]+')
when called by :CheckHealth (see runtime/autoload/health/nvim ..
s:check_performance()).
But invoking some variation of execute('...execute("version")') is not enough to
provoke the bug, maybe it needs to be in a user function?
Problem: Crash when autocommand moves to another tab. (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: When navigating to another window halfway the :edit command go
back to the right window.

Problem: Crash when doing tabnext in a BufUnload autocmd. (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: When detecting that the tab page changed, don't just abort but
delete the window where w_buffer is NULL.

Problem: Mark " is not set when closing a window in another tab. (Guraga)
Solution: Check all tabs for the window to be valid. (based on patch by
Hirohito Higashi, closesvim/vim#974)

Problem: When using Insert mode completion with 'completeopt' containing
"noinsert" with CTRL-N the change is not saved for undo. (Tommy
Allen)
Solution: Call stop_arrow() before inserting for any key.
Problem: When using Insert mode completion with 'completeopt' containing
"noinsert" change is not saved for undo. (Tommy Allen)
Solution: Call stop_arrow() before inserting for pressing Enter.
Problem: When using Insert mode completion but not actually inserting
anything an undo item is still created. (Tommy Allen)
Solution: Do not call stop_arrow() when not inserting anything.

When a file is opened by nvim with ft=man already set, and
"has('vim_starting')", ftplugin/man.vim calls
'execute 'file man://'.ref', this causes nvim to display something like
this:
````
"<name of original file>" 977, 41017C
"man://foo(1)" [Not edited] 977 lines --0%--
Press ENTER or type command to continue
````
This is annoying, because nothing of note has actually happened.
Use cases why you might want to read a man page from a file:
`MANPAGER='bash -c "nvim -c \"set ft=man\" </dev/tty <(col -bx)"' man git`
`nvim -c 'set ft=man' <(man -P cat git)`
Closes#3529Closes#5241
In Vim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
works because for both system() and :! Vim writes input to a temp file and uses
shell syntax to redirect the file to the backgrounded `cat` (get_cmd_output()
.. make_filter_cmd()).
In Nvim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
fails because we write the input directly via pipes (shell.c:do_os_system()),
but (per POSIX[1]) backgrounded process input stream is redirected from
/dev/null (unless overridden by shell redirection; supported only by some shells
[2]), so our writes are ignored, the process exits quickly, and if we are
writing data larger than the buffer size we'll see EPIPE.
This still works:
:%w !tee > foo1358.txt &
but this does not:
:%w !tee foo1358.txt &
though it *should* (why doesn't it?) because we still do the temp file dance
in do_bang() .. do_filter().

These tests are essentially affirming a regression vs Vim. In Vim,
:echo system('cat - &', 'foo')
returns "foo", because Vim internally wraps the command with shell-specific
syntax to redirect the streams from /dev/null[1].
That can't work in Nvim because we use pipes directly (instead of temp files)
and don't wrap the command with shell-specific redirection syntax.
