These were issues that I found while porting that I fixed upstream. :^)
Very little of the patch can be exactly ported as we're a bit behind on
dependant patches (we also can't use the exact :for emsg, as we don't
support iterating over Strings yet), so just translate the fixes as best
as we can for now.
Include latest relevant doc changes from:
- v8.1.0815
- v8.2.2658
Problem: Items in a list given to :const can still be modified.
Solution: Work like ":lockvar! name" but don't lock referenced items.
Make locking a blob work.
021bda5671
Problem: Incorrect error messages for functions that now take a Blob
argument.
Solution: Adjust the error messages. (Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#3846)
0d17f0d1c0
Problem: Not enough documentation for Blobs.
Solution: Add a section about Blobs.
d89682477c
Include doc changes for empty() from v7.4.1274.
Include some minor typo fixes.
Strings that previously decoded into a msgpack special for representing
BINs with NULs now convert to Blobs. It shouldn't be possible to decode
into this special anymore after this change?
Notably, Lua strings with NULs now convert to Blobs when passed to VimL.
Problem: Cannot handle binary data.
Solution: Add the Blob type. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#3638)
6e5ea8d2a9
Nvim-specific Blob conversions are implemented in future commits.
Refactor write_blob() to use a FileDescriptor, as f_writefile() was
refactored to use one (does not apply to read_blob()).
Use var_check_lock() in f_add() for Blobs from v8.1.0897.
Add a modeline to test_blob.vim and fix some doc typos.
Include if_perl.txt's VIM::Blob() documentation. Interestingly, this
function already worked before this port, as it just returns a Blob
string literal, not an actual Blob object.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.0741: viminfo with Blob is not tested
Problem: Viminfo with Blob is not tested.
Solution: Extend the viminfo test. Fix reading a blob. Fixed storing a
special variable value.
8c8b8bb56c
vim-patch:8.1.1022: may use NULL pointer when out of memory
Problem: May use NULL pointer when out of memory. (Coverity)
Solution: Check for blob_alloc() returning NULL.

* Simplify rpc encode/decode messages to rpc.send/rcp.receive
* Make missing handlers message throw a warning
* Clean up formatting style in log
* Move all non-RPC loop messages to trace instead of debug
* Add format func option to log to allow newlines in per log entry
Problem: Cannot use octal numbers in scriptversion 4.
Solution: Add the "0o" notation. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#5304)
c17e66c5c0
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick latest str2nr() doc changes from v8.1.2035.
Cherry-pick various mentions of the 0o prefix from:
- v8.2.2324
- 2346a63784
- 11e3c5ba82
- 82be4849ee
Patch used ascii_isbdigit() by mistake, which was fixed in v8.2.2309.
Make STR2NR_OOCT work the same as STR2NR_OCT when forcing.
In Vim, STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT isn't handled, and doesn't actually
force anything. Rather than abort(), make it work as STR2NR_OCT.
This means STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT works the same as
STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT and STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT | STR2NR_OOCT.
Problem: Recognizing octal numbers is confusing.
Solution: Introduce scriptversion 4: do not use octal and allow for single
quote inside numbers.
60a8de28d1
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick Test_readfile_binary() from v8.1.0742.
Note that this patch was missing vim_str2nr() changes, and so fails the
tests; this was fixed in v8.1.2036.
Problem: Cannot enforce a Vim script style.
Solution: Add the :scriptversion command. (closesvim/vim#3857)
558ca4ae55
:scriptversion is N/A, but ":let ..=" is relevant.
N/A patches for version.c
vim-patch:8.1.1188: not all Vim variables require the v: prefix
Problem: Not all Vim variables require the v: prefix.
Solution: When scriptversion is 3 all Vim variables can only be used with
the v: prefix. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#4274)
d2e716e6df
vim-patch:8.1.1190: has('vimscript-3') does not work
Problem: has('vimscript-3') does not work.
Solution: Add "vimscript-3" to the list of features.
93a4879c20
vim-patch:8.1.2038: has('vimscript-4') is always 0
Problem: has('vimscript-4') is always 0.
Solution: Add "vimscript-4" to the feature table. (Naruhiko Nishino,
closesvim/vim#4941)
af91438338
Problem: 'showbreak' cannot be set for one window.
Solution: Make 'showbreak' global-local.
ee85702c10
Change in oneleft() is N/A as the relevant condition was removed
(has_mbyte is always true for Nvim, so the condition was always false;
see commit 73dc9e9).
Use wp over curwin for curs_columns().
Required for v8.2.2903 (otherwise test fails as it'll leave the global
option set).
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.2283: missed on use of p_sbr
Problem: Missed on use of p_sbr.
Solution: Add missing p_sbr change.
91e22eb6e0
Already ported in commit 43a874a.
Analogous to nodejs's `on('data', …)` interface, here on_key is the "add
listener" interface.
ref 3ccdbc570d#12536
BREAKING_CHANGE: vim.register_keystroke_callback() is now an error.
In particular:
- jobwait: omitting {timeout} arg is the same as -1.
- sockconnect: omitting {opts} arg is the same as {}.
- jobsend: obsoleted by chansend; don't mention it in job_control.txt.
- menu_get: add to |functions| table.
