Problem: No test coverage on ARM.
Solution: Add `macos-14` tests, which now run on M1. Skip unit tests as these don't work on M1, see #26145. Also test universal build on M1.
Note: `macos-14` will be `macos-latest` in Q2 2024, so we'll want to switch these to keep Intel and unittest coverage on macos (while GH still offers Intel runners).
Explicitly set the build type for both deps and Nvim. They are already
explicitly set on Windows to RelWithDebInfo. Now also explicitly set
them to Debug on POSIX.
- Consistently use the variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to select build type.
- Remove broken `doc_html` target.
- Remove swap files created by oldtest when cleaning.
- Only rerun `lintdoc` if any documentation files has changed.
Github Issue template:
- Add pointers to |dev-tools-backtrace|.
- Add pointers to CONTRIBUTING.md (Reporting Problems), which includes
additional helpful instructions for issue reporting.
- Search existing issues: include label `bug-crash` as well as `bug`.
CONTRIBUTING.md:
- Fix broken link on "stacktrace" after moving to help from wiki.
Summary: Separate the lint job (`make lintdoc`) to validate runtime/doc,
it is no longer as a part of functionaltest (help_spec).
Build (cmake) and CI:
- `make lintdoc`: validate vimdoc files and test-generate HTML docs.
CI will run this as a part of the "docs" workflow.
- `scripts/lintdoc.lua` is added as an entry point (executable script)
for validating vimdoc files.
scripts/gen_help_html.lua:
- Move the tests for validating docs and generating HTMLs from
`help_spec.lua` to `gen_help_html`. Added:
- `gen_help_html.run_validate()`.
- `gen_help_html.test_gen()`.
- Do not hard-code `help_dir` to `build/runtime/doc`, but resolve from
`$VIMRUNTIME`. Therefore, the `make lintdoc` job will check doc files
on `./runtime/doc`, not on `./build/runtime/doc`.
- Add type annotations for gen_help_html.
Problem: When the stable bot automatically closes an issue, the issue
will be marked as "closed as completed". It'd be better to mark the
as "closed as not planned".
Solution: Use `state_reason: "not_planned"` from the issues REST API.

Problem: Commits backport-merged to release branches are cherry-picked
from the original commits in the PR from a fork repository, NOT the
actual commit that are merged to neovim/neovim (HEAD). Therefore the
commit reference in the commit message `cherry picked from commit ...`
usually refers to a commit that does NOT exist in the repository,
given that our preferred way of merging PR (rebasing, squashing, etc.)
would rewrite commits.
Solution: Turn on new feature 'detect_merge_method' of backport-action
workflow.
The releases doesn't work on intel mac as libintl isn't available on the system
by default. This makes `:language` not work for the shipped macos releases,
though the reduction in build system complexity most likely outweighs that.
All releases that aren't directly maintained by us should live in the
`neovim/neovim-releases` repository to make it clear that neovim isn't
directly responsible for it and to correctly manage expectations that
it's provided on a best-effort case.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/26717.
The benefits are primarily being able to use FetchContent, which allows
for a more flexible dependency handling. Other various quality-of-life
features such as `-B` and `-S` flags are also included.
This also removes broken `--version` generation as it does not work for
version 3.10 and 3.11 due to the `JOIN` generator expression.
Reference: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/24004
Notable changes:
- Downloads are significantly faster, upwards of 90% improvement in worst case
scenarios.
- Artifacts can be downloaded from other workflow runs and repositories when
supplied with a PAT.

Python3 provider tests suddenly became extremely flaky on macos for
unknown reasons. For some reason, installing python with the
setup-python action over using the default python fixes the flakiness.
Use this workaround for the time being to unblock CI while we figure out
the root cause.
- silence false warnings on MSVC
- merge `clang-tidy` cmake target into `lintc` and remove the
corresponding make target
- use cmake's built-in endianness detection
In cases where the generated files depend on changes to Nvim itself,
generating the files with an older version of Nvim will fail because
those changes are not present in the older version.
For example, if a new option is added then the generator script should
be run with the version of Nvim that contains the new option, or else
the generation will fail.

These are meant for expensive or situational tests that may not be
suitable to run each time, but can occasionally be useful.
Currently only add testing for s390x. The job is enabled by adding the
ci-s390x label in github.
This will run the three test suites (unit, functional and old) in
parallel, meaning that neovim is built for each test and run separately.
This has a slight increase in total CI usage, but it allows rerunning
only the specific test suite that failed for flaky tests, which will
save some time.
Ideally we'd remove any drawbacks by building neovim once and reusing it
for each test suite, but that is not currently possible due to poor
upload/download speeds of the upload-artifact and download-artifact
actions. This has been addressed in
https://github.com/actions/toolkit/pull/1488, but will only be made
available in upload-artifact@v4 and download-artifact@v4.
This adds the checks in https://neovim.io/doc/reports/clang/ when using
clang-tidy. The strategy is to enable all clang-analyzer checks, and
disable only the checks for the warnings that exist currently. This
allows us to eliminate each warning type without blocking ongoing work,
but also without adding bugs for already eliminated warnings.
The plan is to eventually eliminate https://neovim.io/doc/reports/clang/
by completely integrating it into the clang-tidy check.
Also add make and cmake targets `clang-analyzer` to run this check.
Problem: No support for writing extended attributes
Solution: Add extended attribute support for linux
It's been a long standing issue, that if you write a file with extended
attributes and backupcopy is set to no, the file will loose the extended
attributes.
So this patch adds support for retrieving the extended attributes and
copying it to the new file. It currently only works on linux, mainly
because I don't know the different APIs for other systems (BSD, MacOSX and
Solaris). On linux, this should be supported since Kernel 2.4 or
something, so this should be pretty safe to use now.
Enable the extended attribute support with normal builds.
I also added it explicitly to the :version output as well as make it
able to check using `:echo has("xattr")`, to have users easily check
that this is available.
In contrast to the similar support for SELINUX and SMACK support (which
also internally uses extended attributes), I have made this a FEAT_XATTR
define, instead of the similar HAVE_XATTR.
Add a test and change CI to include relevant packages so that CI can
test that extended attributes are correctly written.

This reverts commit e71c7898ca.
Triggering jobs on users own fork turned out to be not that useful, and
only necessary in rare moments. It's easier to adjust the CI scripts if
the users wants CI results before creating a pull request. It also
reduces the complexity of the CI code.
This will fix the failing release job.
Ubuntu 18.04 is incompatible with checkout action version 4, which
requires glibc 2.28+. This will bump the minimum glibc version required
to use the release versions to 2.31. People requring the older releases
can find them at https://github.com/neovim/neovim-releases.
This partially reverts commit 7d0479c558.
The job has been particularly unstable when used with docker on
cirrus-ci, which is especially bad as it's meant to be a non-flaky and
simple test.
Problem: When "triage" job is run after "type-scope" job, it may
remove labels added by the "type-scope" job.
Solution: Run "type-scope" job after "triage" job.
- eval.lua is now the source of truth.
- Formatting is much more consistent.
- Fixed Lua type generation for polymorphic functions (get(), etc).
- Removed "Overview" section from builtin.txt
- Can generate this if we really want it.
- Moved functions from sign.txt and testing.txt into builtin.txt.
- Removed the *timer* *timers* tags since libuv timers via vim.uv should be preferred.
- Removed the temp-file-name tag from tempname()
- Moved lueval() from lua.txt to builtin.txt.
* Fix indent
* fixup!
* fixup! fixup!
* fixup! better tag formatting
* fixup: revert changes no longer needed
* fixup! CI

This will abort if lint programs are not found, and is meant primarily
for the lint job in CI. Supersedes the REQUIRED argument in
add_glob_target as it's a superior replacement by being a built-in
solution.
Neovim QT was originally bundled on Windows as a response to the then
lackluster terminal options. The situation has dramatically changed,
with viable options such as Windows terminal, Alacritty and Wezterm to
name a few. The Windows build no longer needs this special treatment for
neovim to be usable.
Pros:
- Release builds will be smaller.
- Less maintenance burden.
- Clearer separation of responsibility (neovim issues go to the neovim
repo and neovim-qt issues to the neovim-qt repo).
- More consistent treatment between platforms.
Cons:
- Users who've come to expect neovim-qt to be bundled with nvim will
need to adjust and download neovim-qt from
https://github.com/equalsraf/neovim-qt instead.
- Similarly, build scripts will need to be adjusted to reflect this
change.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/21209.
It's not needed anymore as it does the exact same thing as
functionaltest. The functionaltest target will test the lua type neovim
was built with, which can be toggled with the PREFER_LUA option.
Uncrustify is sensitive to version changes, which causes friction for
contributors that doesn't have that exact version. It's also simpler to
download and install the correct version than to have bespoke version
checking.
This will allow contributors to test changes in their own fork when
pushing without needing to make a pull request. This can be useful when
wanting to test out an idea before initiating a review process.
Make the following assumptions when defining concurrency:
- Pull request will work the same.
- Pushes to the neovim repo will work the same: each unique commit will
trigger a test run that won't cancel each other.
- Pushes to forks will cancel older CI runs on the same branch, similar
to how pull requests work.
This will create duplicate CI runs when doing a pull request, one in the
neovim repo for the pull request event and one in the fork for the push
event. This is an acceptable trade as the runs in the fork doesn't count
towards the CI limit of neovim. Contributors are also free to disable
these actions in their own fork if they wish.
This will prevent situations where the linting works on CI but not
locally, at the cost of increased CI time.
Also manually ignore `runtime/vim/lua/re.lua`, as the .styluaignore
isn't respected when specifying a file instead of a directory.
Cirrus ci automatically pushes/caches docker images, which makes
containerization much simpler to handle. Moving this job to cirrus ci
shortens the job by a minute, and reduces github actions CI usage by two
minutes per PR.
`cmake --preset ci`
is equivalent to
`cmake -B build -G Ninja -D CI_BUILD=ON`
Also remove build presets as they're not very useful without workflow
presets, which are only available in schema versions 6 and above.
The shipped versions of xdiff already does everything diff does, so this
duplication of tools isn't necessary. Furthermore, this setup is more
consistent overall, as the 'diffopt=external' option should be for
external programs rather than programs we bundle neovim with.
Install diffutils for oldtests in CI to avoid needing to modify tests.
