There is a bug that causes `:git show-diff` to fail when using an external diff, for example difftastic.
This change ensures that we don't use an external diff tool when diffing the current buffer.
Commit 5b1f9255 (rc: Use the standard `fail` command to report errors,
2019-11-14) replaced uses of "echo -markup {Error}" with "fail".
This made format-buffer do
echo "eval -client $kak_client %{ fail }" | kak -p $kak_session
Unfortunately "fail" fails in the client spawned by "kak -p" and not
in $kak_client where the user would see the message. Correct this.
While at it, clarify the error message, so users immediately know
that the number is the exit code.
Fixes#3254
Go 1.18 introduces the `any` and `comparable` predeclared identifiers. Modify
the list of identifiers here, so syntax highlighting will catch these new
identifiers. See https://go.dev/ref/spec#Predeclared_identifiers.
Passing large diff buffers via the environment can quickly result in
the error "execve failed: Argument list too long". Use a pipe like
in format.kak
When running | (or <a-|>), Kakoune does not use %arg{@} to populate
"$@" (missing feature?). Work around this by moving %arg{@} to a
temporary register. Apparently $kak_quoted_reg_a will never be an
empty list, so work around that too.
When diff parsing fails, we take care to run "fail" in the calling
client, unlike :format (probably a bug in format.kak).
(This patch is best viewed while ignoring whitespace changes (diff -w))
Mapping in the filetype hook matches others like grep.kak and man.kak.
Since we map in buffer scope, git diff buffers will override diff-jump
with git-diff-goto-source.
This means that the diff-jump binding applies here:
diff -u "$1" "$2" | kak -e 'set buffer filetype diff'

*.ini files traditionally use ; but for example the "foot" terminal's
foot.ini uses #. Add a hack to treat ini files as "conf" filetype
if they contain a #-comment (very slim chance of false positives).
This requires to explicitly set comment_line to the default #,
because we set the "ini" filetype earlier.
A recent commit wrapped diff.kak into a module. The module includes the
hook that adds diff highlighting to filetype=diff buffers. This means
that the hook is only loaded after opening the first diff buffer in a
Kakoune session, so it only actually fires for the second diff buffer.
Fix this by moving the hook out of the module.
Fixes#4525
The wrapper for "git blame" creates flags for each line of the buffer.
It parses the output from git and would send a flag (or a series of
flags) each time the commit to blame for a line differs from the
previous one. For files that were touched by a large number of commits,
this results in a high number of kakoune processes being launched, and
may take some time. This is visible in the session through the flags for
the different commits appearing on the lines one by one, possibly during
several seconds.
To speed up the process, batch flags before passing them to the kak
session. One solution could be to send all flags at once, but this might
delay the appearance of commit info for too long if "git blame" really
takes a long time. The alternative solution retained for this commit
consists in grouping as many flags as we can during one second
(roughly), to pass them to kakoune, and then to move on to the next
flags. This way, a new batch of commit information flags appears every
second or so in the client, until all information is added. This should
be much faster than lauching a kakoune process for each commit
reported by "git blame": tests have shown that blaming a large file in
the Linux repository goes 4.5 times faster when batching flags.

This allows to jump from a mail buffer that contains an inline diff
to the source files (most accurate when the patch has been applied
locally).
This makes the diff module a mandatory dependency; we could relax that.
