Switch to a rolling release, so the `0-beta3` suffix is dropped in favor
of the date. Remove the custom UNIX command as the symlink is now
created by the LuaJIT Makefile.
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.
libvterm v0.3 supports reflow of terminal buffer when Nvim is resized
Since v0.3 is now a required dependency, enable it by default to find
(and fix) possible issues.
Note: Neovim's scrollback buffer does not support reflow (yet), so lines
vanishing into the buffer due to a too small window will be restored
without reflow.
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.
- Simplify error checking when using execute_process.
- Set BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to OFF when building dependencies.
This is normally not needed, but msgpack interprets an unset
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to build a shared library, which is the opposite of
the cmake behavior.
- Move function check_lua_module to Util.cmake.
- Remove unnecessary code.
- Make variable naming more consistent
Cmake won't rebuild with the new URL when bumping dependency version.
This is because the old URL is still cached, and won't be removed
automatically. The workaround for using non-cached variables, but also
let users specify an alternative URL is to only set the defined
variables in deps.txt if the corresponding variable hasn't already been
set by the user from the command line.
Also apply the CMAKE_CONFIFGURE_DEPENDS property to deps.txt, as we want
cmake to rebuild when changing this file.
The previous logic made it possible to install bundled luarocks, but
also use external rocks, making the luarocks installation unnecessary.
Instead, let's assume that if the user wants to use the bundled
luarocks, then they also want to use it to install necessary rocks.
Problem: Lpeg requires Lua headers. Currently the include directories
for Lpeg are set only to the bundled deps folder, so if the user wants
to use system Lua/Luajit, Lpeg will not find the system headers and will
fail to build.
Solution: Add system Lua/Luajit include directories when USE_BUNDLED_LUA
and USE_BUNDLED_LUAJIT are turned off.
Fixes#23469
The cmake.deps build will read this file and set the left part of the
text as the variable name and the right part as the variable value. The
benefit of doing this is that it becomes much easier to parse which
dependencies are required, as well as to bump dependencies with
scripts/bump_deps.lua.
Adjust bump_deps.lua script to work with this new format.
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.
