The Lua modules that make up vim.lua are embedded as raw source files into the
nvim binary. These sources are loaded by the Lua runtime on startuptime. We can
pre-compile these sources into Lua bytecode before embedding them into the
binary, which minimizes the size of the binary and improves startuptime.

This release represents ~4000 commits since v0.4.4, the previous
non-maintenance release. Highlights include builtin support for LSP, new APIs
for extended marks (with byte resolution tracking of changes) and buffer
decorations, as well as vast improvements to lua as a plugin and configuration
language. Experimental support for tree-sitter as a syntax engine is also
included, building on the new core APIs for byte tracking and decorations.

e65d0e53b vim.fn: throw error when trying to use API function
This is a fixup for #14915, which used the above-mentioned call to
restore the behavior of the pre-release version of tree-sitter to
that of 0.19.5. However, this function was introduced after 0.19.5,
breaking distro builds that link against 0.19.5 instead of the tag
specified in neovim's build script.
Now the function should only be called when it is available _and_
needed. Once tree-sitter is bumped to 0.19.6 (when this is released),
this guard can be removed again.
Fixes#14923 (among others)
`find_package(Foo ...)` expects to find a file FindFoo.cmake and the
resulting variables to be named `Foo_...`. If those don't all match up,
then the detection does not work properly.
Closes#13262
Problem: On Windows with the MSVC build, gettext-translation
"Questa è già la" displays as "Questa <e8> gi<e0> la".
Solution: Fix iconv detection iconv when building gettext.
So HAVE_ICONV is correctly defined when building nvim.
* fix gettext mb chars on MSVC
* fix libintl detection failure on MSVC
fixes#11749
This is relevant for when using `USE_BUNDLED_LUAJIT=ON` with
`USE_BUNDLED_LUAROCKS=OFF`, and then building without the necessary modules
being installed/activated there yet: it would check the other (system) "lua"
interpreters also, and in case all failed keep the `LUA_PRG` in the cache for
the last failed entry - making it not re-check the previous ones on the next
build (after you might have activated your custom LuaRocks installation).
Only setting LUA_PRG if the check was successful handles the case better where
it is configured already - we should not try to re-configure it then.
This avoids invoking CMake after a new commit, which might take 15s on
some systems.
Skipped on CMake < 3.2.0 (missing BYPRODUCTS support).

Lua
This release introduces "Nvim-Lua standard library". See ":help lua-stdlib".
89d7e24891#9463 Lua stdlib: vim.inspect, string functions
8e941c59ec#9740 Lua: generate documentation from docstrings
1cbe014569#9301 lua/stdlib: Introduce vim.shared
c83926cd0a#10123 Lua: introduce vim.loop (expose libuv event-loop)

c0993ed343 Lua: support getting UTF-32 and UTF-16 sizes of replaced text
b0e26199ec Lua: add {old_byte_size} to on_lines buffer change event
UI:
- The Nvim 0.3.4 UI protocol introduced line-based updates instead of
legacy char-based updates. Nvim 0.4 continues to evolve the UI
protocol. See ":help ui". Legacy UI clients are supported. See
":help api-contract".
9a1675b065#6619 Floating windows
- Can be (re)positioned, anchored, external.
- Are real windows showing real buffers. No shortcuts, hacks, or compromises.
- Support all features and API of normal windows, plus more.
6427894d89#8455 Multigrid: "windows drawn on separate grids"
- Windows are logically isolated internally.
- Windows are sent to UIs as distinct objects, so that UIs can control
layout instead of being stuck with the classic TUI layout.
- Per-window font-size, dimenions, line-spacing.
- Compositor: Internal subsystem for composing grids.

788bcbba24#9923 ui: ":syn blend=", 'winblend'
7cf7c0a0b8#9575 ui: 'redrawdebug' option for flexible debugging of redrawing
5c836d2ef8#9607 wildoptions=pum (enabled by default)
37f8df8824#9571 UI: 'pumblend' option for semi-transparent popupmenu
c403a95a52#9446 Visual: highlight char-at-cursor
- Traditionally Vim's visual selection does "reverse mode", which
perhaps conflicts with the non-blinking block cursor. But
'guicursor' defaults to a vertical bar for selection=exclusive, and
this confuses users who expect to see the text highlighted.

58f505dc74#9829 startup: remove TUI init special-case
Historically Vim/Nvim does backflips to handle input and show messages
before a UI is available. This logical contradiction was already fixed
for remote UIs (#9024c236e80cf3). Fixing it also for the TUI avoids
problems on Windows, simplifies the logic, and avoids races like #9959.
libvterm now advertises a version number, so we can specify the minimum
required version. And this is necessary because there were breaking
changes in its API.
ref 2a590e2293
ref https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/10991
We are using "LIBFOO" prefixes for `LIBFOO_INCLUDE_DIRS` etc, and
therefore need to use this for the PREFIX with LibFindMacros also, so
that `"${${PREFIX}_FIND_VERSION}"` gets handled there properly.
The alternative would be to either manually handle/set the upper/mixed case
variants of those variable additionally, which is not as easy.
Keeping the existing names is useful for packagers.
Before this the version requirements with
`find_package(Unibilium 2.0 REQUIRED)` was not handled (a49cf5126), and
it prepares for using a required version with libvterm
(initially/wrongly ported in 1896c72a5).
This avoids errors when using "make lint", but "flake8" is not
available. We do not want to install it then via third-party.
On CI "make pylint" is used explicitly.
* build: require unibilium>=2.0
This also ports FindUnibilium to LibFindMacros, which was planned
anyway, and makes the version check easier.
With an older Unibilium our fallback code in `terminfo_from_builtin`
will not work (because it assumes the new data structures from 2.0.0 [1]),
and nvim would crash later because of `ut` being NUL.

Might not be necessary anymore, at least it is fine on gcc 9.1, and
since the bug is still open/unresolved, something else might have fixed
it.
Ref: 4b81f627c
Ref: #7083
`check_c_compiler_flag(-Wno-doesnotexist …)` is successful always,
apparently for all "no-" prefixes.
Therefore check for the flag itself (without "no-" prefix).
I am seeing a warning if the source fails to compile:
> cc1: warning: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wno-meh’
Which is turned into an error with `-Werror`:
> cc1: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wno-meh’ [-Werror]
But when it compiles successfully, there is no warning/error.
gcc (GCC) 9.1.0.
* build: FindLibIntl: fix warning about CMP0075
The common pattern elsewhere to set this only during the check, and here
it was not unset, resulting in a warning later (on Alpine 3.10):
-- Found Iconv
-- Looking for pthread.h
CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/CheckIncludeFile.cmake:80 (message):
Policy CMP0075 is not set: Include file check macros honor
CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES. Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0075" for policy
details. Use the cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this
warning.
CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES is set to:
/usr/lib/libintl.so
For compatibility with CMake 3.11 and below this check is ignoring it.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
/usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindThreads.cmake:105 (CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE)
CMakeLists.txt:482 (find_package)
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
-- Looking for pthread.h - found
* build: remove lists / REMOVE_ITEM around check_c_source_compiles
- Move .luacheckrc to root, add read_globals=vim
- Simplify lualint target, run it on all lua files
- Lint preload.lua, but ignore W211
- Remove testlint target, included in lualint (and lint)
- Clean up .luacheckrc
Required after d33aaa0f5.
Does not really make a difference, since the VERSION is not handled with
our FindLibLUV (due to missing pkg-config information
(https://github.com/luvit/luv/issues/354)).
Keeps using add_definitions for compatibility with older CMake.
Newer CMake (3.12) would have `add_compile_definitions`, but it is not
required, since `add_defitions` was meant to be used for
compile/preprocessor definitions initially anyway.
Ref: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/4389
Just set it from `${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME}` directly, instead of passing it
from the main CMake file (CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME defaults to it, but is empty
in script mode).
Initially added in 9ce81f7b2, but then even used with unrelated commands
(that do not use RunTests.cmake, e.g. 221f6fffa).
- Minimum required libuv is now v1.12
- Because `uv_os_getenv` requires allocating, we must manage a map
(`envmap` in `env.c`) to maintain the old behavior of `os_getenv` .
- free() map-items after removal. khash.h does not make copies of
anything, so even its keys must be memory-managed by the caller.
closes#8398closes#9267
There was never any investigation done to determine whether using
jemalloc was actually a net benefit for nvim. It has been a portability
limitation and adds another factor to consider when triaging issues.
Note about shada.c:
- shada_read_next_item_start was intentionally shadowing `unpacked` and
`i` because many of the macros (e.g. ADDITIONAL_KEY) implicitly
depended on those variable names.
- Macros were changed to parameterize `unpacked` (but not `i`). Macros
like CLEAR_GA_AND_ERROR_OUT do control-flow (goto), so any other
approach is messy.
Besides the "visible" improvements, this release features numerous
internal improvements to the UI/screen code and test infrastructure.
Numerous patches were merged from Vim, which are not mentioned below.

As of CMake 3.12, check_include_files() also link the check executable
against the libraries listed in CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES. Therefore we
should unset the CMAKE_REQUIRED_* variables after each respective use to
avoid them unnecessarily bleeding into other checks.
There's a mix of CXX and C related variables being set/referenced in our
CMake files. Since we only use C, use an explicit language list of "C"
instead of the implicit "C CXX" and replace all uses of CXX variables
with their C counterparts

Enabling CMake's USE_FOLDERS option and adding the FOLDER property to
targets allows some IDEs to list the targets in an organized
hierarchy of folders.
Environment variables are used to detect when the project is being built
from within Clion or Visual Studio, so that the build process can be
simplified by automatically building the bundled dependencies for them.
"Always use `find_package` with `REQUIRED`."
- We make an exception for LuaJit (not REQUIRED): the `nvim-test` target
is included only if we can find LuaJit.
This is partially a cargo-cult (reference below), but it uncovered at
least one problem: `find_package(LibIntl REQUIRED)` fails on my vanilla
ubuntu 16.04 system.
ref: https://schneide.blog/2017/11/06/4-tips-for-better-cmake/
> optional dependencies is nice, but skipping on REQUIRED is not the way
> you want to do it. In the worst case, some of your features will just
> not work if those packages are not found, with no explanation
> whatsoever. Instead, use explicit feature-toggles (e.g. using option())
> that either skip the find_package call or use it with REQUIRED, so the
> user will know that another lib is needed for this feature.
Prior to CMake 2.8.12, generator expressions could only be used in
custom commands so the path to libnvim-test in test/config/paths.lua was
set by inspecting the target's LOCATION property. Post 2.8.12, the
file(GENERATE) command exists to handle this, but it can't interpolate
normal CMake variables.
In order to bridge the gap while < 2.8.12 is supported, use
configure_file() to create paths.lua.gen with the
$<TARGET_FILE:nvim-test> generator expression and then generate the
final paths.lua file.
Closes#7077
New logging is guarded by cmake LOG_LIST_ACTIONS define. To make it more
efficient it is allocated as a linked list with chunks of length
2^(7+chunk_num); that uses basically the same idea as behind increasing kvec
length (make appending O(1) (amortized)), but reduces constant by not bothering
to move memory around what realloc() would surely do: it is not like we need
random access to log entries here to justify usage of a single continuous memory
block.
closes#7283
regression by 42d892913d
- Don't need to explicitly put "-O2 -g" in RelWithDebInfo; CMake does
that already. That was left-over from 42d892913d which removed the
"Dev" custom build-type, but repurposed the logic for RelWithDebInfo.
- `if(DEFINED MIN_LOG_LEVEL)` doesn't work.
- `if(${MIN_LOG_LEVEL} MATCHES "^$")` doesn't work if -DMIN_LOG_LEVEL is
omitted.
- `if(MIN_LOG_LEVEL)` also isn't what we want: it would be true if
MIN_LOG_LEVEL=0.
As of unibilium 1.2.1, directly manipulating unibi_var_t is deprecated.
../src/nvim/tui/tui.c: In function 'update_attrs':
../src/nvim/tui/tui.c:321:7: warning: 'i' is deprecated: use unibi_var_from_num or unibi_num_from_var instead [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
data->params[0].i = (fg >> 16) & 0xff; // red
^~~~
In file included from ../src/nvim/tui/tui.c:12:0:
/usr/include/unibilium.h:632:9: note: declared here
int i UNIBI_DEPRECATED("use unibi_var_from_num or unibi_num_from_var instead");
^
All use should go through unibi_{num,str}_from_var and
unibi_var_from_{num,str}. Wrap access of unibi_var_t behind a new
UNIBI_SET_NUM_VAR macro which uses the new functions when they're
available.
Handling of process exit is still broken. It detects the moment when the
child process exits, then quickly stops polling for process output. It
should continue polling for output until the agent has scraped all of the
process' output. This problem is easy to notice by running a command like
"dir && exit", but even typing "exit<ENTER>" can manifest the problem --
the "t" might not appear.
winpty's Cygwin adapter handles shutdown by waiting for the agent to close
the CONOUT pipe, which it does after it has scraped the child's last
output. AFAIK, neovim doesn't do anything interesting when winpty closes
the CONOUT pipe.
The main purpose of this build-type was to avoid unwanted ~/.nvimlog
files (which could get really big, and also affects performance) for
non-devs. But that is no longer necessary since the log system now
avoids non-critical logging by default (#6827).
This essentially reverts 87e5a41316
- Establish ERROR log level as "critical". Such errors are rare and will
be valuable when users encounter unusual circumstances.
- Set -DMIN_LOG_LEVEL=3 for release-type builds
Compile `nvim` executable against Lua if PREFER_LUA=ON.
As the testing library `nvim-test` requires LuaJIT, it is
still compiled against LuaJIT. If LuaJIT is not available,
`nvim-test` is not built.
For CI builds unibilium is provided through msys2 packages, and
libtermkey is built from source in third-party from equalsraf/libtermkey.
In Windows we cannot read terminal input from the stdin file descriptor,
instead use libuv's uv_tty API. It should handle key input and encoding.
The UI suspend is not implemented for Windows, because the
SIGSTP/SIGCONT do not exist in windows. Currently this is a NOOP.

Reasoning: luajit is not being compiled with sanitizers, lua is. Given that
linking with sanitized libraries requires sanitizers enabled, it is needed to
either compile libnvim-test with sanitizers or link it with lua compiled without
sanitizers. Most easy way to do the latter is just use luajit which is compiled
without sanitizers (as they do not work well with luajit).
No tests yet, no documentation update, no :lua* stuff, no vim module.
converter.c should also work with typval_T, not Object.
Known problem: luaeval("1", {}) results in
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (attempt to index a nil value)
Ref #3823
- Add support for TEST_FILE to the `oldtest` target, for consistency
with the busted/lua tests.
Caveat: with the busted/lua tests TEST_FILE takes a full path, whereas
for `oldtest` it must be "test_foo.res".
- Add support for NVIM_PRG, again so that all test-related targets are
consistent.
- Use consistent name for NVIM_PRG. But still need to support NVIM_PROG
for QuickBuild CI.
Note: The `oldtest` target is driven by the top-level Makefile, because
it requires a TTY. CMake 3.2 added a USES_TERMINAL flag to
add_custom_target(). But we support CMake 2.8...

jemalloc's README states:

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.
Since C leaves whether char is signed or unsigned up to the implementer,
there are different defaults on different architectures.
Forcing unsigned char for one of our CI builds should help catch these
issues moving forward.
In Windows Lua's os.tmpname() returns relative paths starting with \s,
prepend them with $TEMP to generate a valid path.
In OS X os.tmpname() returns paths in '/tmp' but they should be in
'/private/tmp'. We cannot use os_name() for platform detection because
some tests use tempname() before nvim is spawned, instead use one of the
following:
1. Set SYSTEM_NAME environment variable before calling the tests, it
is set from CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME(i.e. uname -s or 'Windows')
2. Call uname -s
3. Assume windows

Otherwise, busted may run a different interpreter than the one we

have detected the luajit interpreter, but busted might run the lua
interpreter, without the ffi module.)
The TUI can be enabled/disabled at build time with -DFEAT_TUI, default is ON for
UNIX, and OFF for non UNIX. When off, Neovim prints a message to stderr, along
with a list of the server endpoints.
By default Neovim searched a Luajit instalation and linked against
the luajit library.
In practice Neovim only requires luajit to run the unit tests. All other
targets only require lua and the correct lua modules. This commit:
1. Remove the strict dependency on Luajit
2. Makes the unittest target depend on the lua 'ffi' module.
If the module is not available the target is not enabled
and a message is displayed.
This is needed as long as we support cmake older than 2.8.12. When we
bump the minimum version to 2.8.12, we can use target_compile_options()
and add_compile_options() instead.
Closes#4389
Change POROJECT_NAME to 'nvim', and use it as the gettext
domain name. The *.mo files, previously installed as
$runtime/lang/xx/LC_MESSAGES/nvim.mo, are now installed as
$prefix/locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES/nvim.mo.
Some toolchains apparently set _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 in internal header
files. Include <string.h> (which in turn should include such internal
header files) before checking the value of _FORTIFY_SOURCE to catch
that.
Fixes#4183.

In 33bc332, version constraints were added to pkg_search_module(), but
that only affects the set of directories searched by
find_library()/find_path().
Once the header directory is found, parse the version from
version_master.h so it can be checked by the find_package() call in the
root CMakeLists.txt.
When using the Visual Studio generator don't use get_target_property for
custom command, because it returns unexpanded VS variables (e.g.
$(Configuration)) within the result as part of the LOCATION path.
The single case where this is a problem is for getting the output path for
nvim-test, instead we use a path here.
The Visual Studio cmake generator creates subdirectories inside
the build path for different build configuration. But this breaks some of our
cmake scripts, like the help tags installer, that assume the targets are
built in that location. Updated CMakeLists.txt to remove extra paths.
- Check if MIN_LOG_LEVEL value is a number 0-3, default to
INFO (1) or ignore it in Release mode
- When TRAVIS_CI_BUILD is ON the default is DEBUG (0)
- Add local.mk.example
We use `git describe` to stamp pre-release versions (dev builds). But
`git describe` uses the result of the most-recent tag (the current
_release_ version)--so we must munge it with the _next_ (i.e.
unreleased) version.
Also fix non-git builds: do not invoke git_describe(NVIM_VERSION_MEDIUM)
if we're not in a git tree, else it gets the dummy value
"HEAD-HASH-NOTFOUND".
Example :version output in non-git build:
NVIM 0.1.2-dev
Example :version output in git build:
NVIM v0.1.2-176-g9c3c2b5
Without this compilation fails due to a missing symbol: SRWLOCK in libuv
headers. _WIN32_WINNT defines the Windows header version that is to be used,
and it seems libuv requires this version. See
b471b33da8
If nvim is built from a non-tagged commit, the truncated commit hash is
already appended to the main version string (e.g., "NVIM v0.1.0-83-g959f260 ..."),
making the "Commit:" field redundant.
Regarding the truncated hash length: we don't have nearly enough commits
to worry about collisions, and probably won't ever, so the default
length should be fine.
When building in a git repo:
- If HEAD corresponds to an annotated tag, (i.e. git_get_exact_tag()
returns truthy) the current build is considered a "release" build:
NVIM_VERSION_MEDIUM is directly assigned the tagged version name,
and NVIM_VERSION_* defines are ignored.
- If HEAD is not a tagged release, then NVIM_VERSION_MEDIUM is
directly assigned the result of `git describe`.
If git (or the repo) is not available:
- The NVIM_VERSION_* defines are used to define NVIM_VERSION_MEDIUM.
Sample outputs for `nvim --version` and `nvim +version`:

Before this change, building Neovim would recursively search parent
directories for a .git directory. If Neovim was downloaded as a tarball
(i.e. without a .git directory), but placed in a subdirectory of
a Git repository, this caused a CMake error. Such a situation could
occur when packaging Neovim, for example.
Unfortunately, the previous attempt in #3317 did not fix this problem.
* Hide commit information from --version if we can't find any (e.g. when
building from tarball).
To define a release in CMake, set NVIM_VERSION_PRERELEASE to "".
This will modify --version output to:
* Show annotated Git tag instead of commit hash (NVIM_VERSION_COMMIT).
* Hide commit date (NVIM_VERSION_BUILD).
Introduce new build type Dev that replaces RelWithDebInfo for development
builds off master and has optimizations, debug info, and logging enabled.
Keep assertions enabled for RelWithDebInfo.
