The API level is disconnected from the NVIM version. The API metadata
holds the current API level, and the lowest backwards-compatible level
supported by this instance.
Release 0.1.6 will be the first release reporting the Nvim version and
API level.
metadata['version'] = {
major: 0,
minor: 1,
patch: 6,
prerelease: true,
api_level: 1,
api_compatible: 0,
}
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.
There are a total of 5 shell scripts in the Neovim source tree.
All but runtime\macros\less.sh had warnings/errors when run through
Shellcheck (http://www.shellcheck.net/).
This commit fixes all warnings/errors and also changes the shebang to
"#!/bin/sh" when possible (this was not possible for vim-patch.sh
because it uses many bashisms).
The shellcheck errors that were fixed are:
SC2068: Double quote array expansions to avoid re-splitting elements.
SC2086: Double quote to prevent globbing and word splitting.
SC2124: Assigning an array to a string! Assign as array, or use *
instead of @ to concatenate
SC2155: Declare and assign separately to avoid masking return values.
