Lua's string.byte has a maximum (undocumented) allowable length, so
vim.text.hencode fails on large strings with the error "string slice too
long".
Instead of converting the string to an array of bytes up front, convert
each character to a byte one at a time.
Problem:
Tests have lots of exec_lua calls which input blocks of code
provided as unformatted strings.
Solution:
Teach exec_lua how to handle functions.
Problem:
Empty dictionaries are converted into typed tables of the form `{ [true]
= 6}` instead of an empty dictionary representation `{}`. This leads to
incorrect table representation, along with failure in JSON encoding of
such tables as currently tables with only string and number type keys
can be encoded.
Solution:
The typed table logic has been removed from `nlua_push_Dictionary`. The
typed table logic is required only for float value conversions which is
already handled in `nlua_push_Float`. So, it is(was) no longer required
here.

This patch replaces fswatch with inotifywait from inotify-toools:
https://github.com/inotify-tools/inotify-tools
fswatch takes ~1min to set up recursively for the Samba source code
directory. inotifywait needs less than a second to do the same thing.
https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch/issues/321
Also it fswatch seems to be unmaintained in the meantime.

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.
Problem: with a single `context.options` there is no way for user to
force which scope (local, global, both) is being temporarily set and
later restored.
Solution: replace single `options` context with `bo`, `go`, `wo`, and
`o`. Naming and implementation follows how options can be set directly
with `vim.*` (like `vim.bo`, etc.).
Options are set for possible target `win` or `buf` context.
Problem: `vim._with()` has many different use cases which are not
covered with tests.
Solution: cover with tests. Some (many) test cases are intentionally
marked as "pending" because they cover cases which don't work as
expected at the moment (and fixing them requires specific knowledge of
C codebase). Use them as a reference for future fixes.
Also some of "can be nested" tests currently might pass only because
the tested context doesn't work.
This change fixes an issue where glob patterns like `{a,ab}` would not
match `ab` because the first option `a` matches, then the end of the
string is expected but `b` is found, and LPeg does not backtrack to try
the next option `ab` which would match. The fix here is to also append
the rest of the pattern to the generated LPeg pattern for each option.
This changes a glob `{a,ab}` from being parsed as
("a" or "ab") "end of string"
to
("a" "end of string" or "ab" "end of string")
Here, matching against `ab` would try the first option, fail to match,
then proceed to the next option, and match.
The sacrifice this change makes is dropping support for nested `{}`
conditions, which VSCode doesn't seem to support or test AFAICT.
Fixes#28931

It's a function to perform operations in their own sealed context,
similar to pythons `with`. This helps ease operations where you need to
perform an operation in a specific context, and then restore the
context.
Marked as private for now as it's not ready for public use. The current
plan is to start using this internally so we can discover and fix any
problems. Once this is ready to be exposed it will be renamed to
`vim.with`.
Usage:
```lua
local ret = vim._with({context = val}, function()
return "hello"
end)
```
, where `context` is any combination of:
- `buf`
- `emsg_silent`
- `hide`
- `horizontal`
- `keepalt`
- `keepjumps`
- `keepmarks`
- `keeppatterns`
- `lockmarks`
- `noautocmd`
- `options`
- `sandbox`
- `silent`
- `unsilent`
- `win`
(except for `win` and `buf` which can't be used at the same time). This
list will most likely be expanded in the future.

Problem: The default commentstring for C/C++ can lead to invalid code
when commenting and does not match the Nvim codebase.
Solution: Change commentstring to `// %s` as used by Neovim. Also
set all commentstrings that derive from the default C string explicitly
(and correctly).
Deprecate vim.diagnostic.goto_prev() and vim.diagnostic.goto_next() in
favor of a unified vim.diagnostic.jump() interface.
We cannot name the function "goto()" because some of our tooling
(luacheck and stylua) fail to parse it, presumably because "goto" is a
keyword in newer versions of Lua.
vim.diagnostic.jump() also allows moving to a specific diagnostic and
moving by multiple diagnostics at a time (useful for creating mappings
that use v:count).
On Windows, '{' is currently not treated as a wildcard char, so another
wildcard char is needed for the pattern to be treated as a wildcard.
It may be worth trying to make '{' always a wildcard char in the future,
but that'll be a bit harder as it'll be necessary to make sure '{' is
escaped at various places.
For many small/simple functions (like those found in shared.lua), the
runtime of vim.validate can far exceed the runtime of the function
itself. Add an "overload" to vim.validate that uses a simple assertion
pattern, rather than parsing a full "validation spec".
Deprecation with vim.deprecate is currently too noisy. Show the
following warning instead:
[function] is deprecated. Run ":checkhealth vim.deprecated" for more information.
The important part is that the full message needs to be short enough to
fit in one line in order to not trigger the "Press ENTER or type command
to continue" prompt.
The full information and stack trace for the deprecated functions will
be shown in the new healthcheck `vim.deprecated`.
Problem: Currently comment detection, addition, and removal are done
by matching 'commentstring' exactly. This has the downside when users
want to add comment markers with space (like with `-- %s`
commentstring) but also be able to uncomment lines that do not contain
space (like `--aaa`).
Solution: Use the following approach:
- Line is commented if it matches 'commentstring' with trimmed parts.
- Adding comment is 100% relying on 'commentstring' parts (as is now).
- Removing comment is first trying exact 'commentstring' parts with
fallback on trying its trimmed parts.
The optimizations that vim.iter uses for array-like tables don't require
that the source table has no holes. The only thing that needs to change
is the determination if a table is "list-like": rather than requiring
consecutive, integer keys, we can simply test for (positive) integer
keys only, and remove any holes in the original array when we make a
copy for the iterator.
Problem:
- The test for vim.deprecate() has a "mock" which is outdated because
vim.deprecate() no longer uses that.
- The tests get confused after a version bump.
Solution:
Make the tests adapt to the current version.
Problem:
The nvim_win_xx_ns function family introduced in ba0370b1d7
needs more bake-time. Currently it's narrowly defined for windows, but
other scopes ("buffer") and features are likely in the future.
Solution:
- Rename the API with double-underscore to mark it as EXPERIMENTAL.
TODO/FUTURE:
- Rename and change the signature to support more than just "window"
scope, and for other flexibility.
- Open question: we could choose either:
- "store scopes on namespaces", or
- "store namespaces on scopes (w:/b:/…)"

Problem:
`vim.ui.open()` has a `pcall()` like signature, under the assumption
that this is the Lua idiom for returning result-or-error. However, the
`result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern:
- has precedent in:
- `io.open`
- `vim.uv` (`:help luv-error-handling`)
- has these advantages:
- Can be used with `assert()`:
```
local result, err = assert(foobar())
```
- Allows LuaLS to infer the type of `result`:
```
local result, err = foobar()
if err then
...
elseif result then
...
end
```
Solution:
- Revert to the `result|nil, errmsg|nil` pattern.
- Document the pattern in our guidelines.
Problem: Calling :redraw from vim.ui_attach() callback results in
recursive cmdline/message events.
Solution: Avoid recursiveness where possible and replace global "call_buf"
with separate, temporary buffers for each event so that when a Lua
callback for one event fires another event, that does not result
in invalid memory access.

Problem:
The new behaviour of goto_next/prev() of navigating to the next highest
severity doesn't work well when diagnostic providers have different
interpretations of severities. E.g. the user may be blocked from
navigating to a useful LSP warning, due to some linter error.
Solution:
The behaviour of next highest severity is now a hidden option
`_highest = true`. We can revisit how to integrate this behaviour
during the 0.11 cycle.

LSP snippets typically do include tabs or spaces to add extra
indentation and don't rely on the client using `autoindent`
functionality.
For example:
public static void main(String[] args) {\n\t${0}\n}
Notice the `\t` after `{\n`
Adding spaces or tabs independent of that breaks snippets for languages
like Haskell where you can have snippets like:
${1:name} :: ${2}\n${1:name} ${3}= ${0:undefined}
To generate:
name ::
name = undefined
Problem: when line is blank link then there will got an invalid column number in math.min compare.
Solution: make sure the min column number is 0 not an illegal number.
