The last update is from 2017, it's pretty outdated. Current
support was combined from existing languages such as Ruby and
Zig and tweaked to fit the Pony language.
When using either of
set-option g completers option=my_option
prompt -shell-script-candidates ...
While the search text is empty, the completions will be sorted
alphabetically.
This is bad because it means the most important entries are not listed
first, making them harder to select or even spot.
Let's apply input order before resorting to sorting alphabetically.
In theory there is a more elegant solution: sort candidates (except
if they're user input) before passing them to RankedMatch, and then
always use stable sort. However that doesn't work because we use a
heap which doesn't support stable sort.
Closes#1709, #4813
prompt has fuzzy filtering which is more discoverable than the menu
mode's regex filtering (because that one needs / to trigger it).
There are no important differences left, so replace the menu builtin
with a prompt-based command.
prompt does not support markup in the completion menu, so drop that
feature for now.
Running an invalid command like "grep -abc" shows no output at all.
Let's give better feedback by showing the error message from grep.
We used to do this until an unrelated change, bd5955c73 (grep: remove
eventual \r, 2013-02-13).
This adds a somewhat discoverable frontend for common uses of the
patch command.
Here are some frequently used commands
# apply selected changes
git apply
# revert selected changes
git apply -R
# stage selected changes
git apply --cached
# unstage selected changes
git apply --cached -R
# apply selected changes and stage them
git apply --index
For everyday use that's a lot of typing so I recommend adding mappings.
One of the features I miss most from Magit/Fugitive/Tig is to
apply/revert/stage/unstage individual hunks or even exactly the
selected line(s). This provides a much more convenient way of
splitting changes than "git add/restore -p".
Implement a "patch" command that applies the selected lines within
a diff by piping them to the "patch" program.
It can also feed other programs like "git apply" (see the next commit).

Interestingly, :patch is defined outside the "patch" module. This is
to make it readily available for interactive use.
Putting it into the module does not save any work.
I tentatively added a patch module anyway so we can explicitly declare
this dependency.. although there is the argument that this is not
really needed?
This commit adds `diff_add_char`, `diff_mod_char`, `diff_del_char` and `diff_top_char` as `str` options, with typical
defaults.
This commit also replaces the hard coded +, _, ≃, etc. hardcoded characters in `git update-diff` to use the options from
above.
Why?
Most users who pass the current selection to grep likely do not intend to pass
the selection as a regex input string.
This makes the grepcmd use an additional -F flag to perform literal-string
matching for the current selection. The -F flag seems to be the standard flag
for literal-string matching in every grep implementation I've found.
Positional arguments in awk’s printf is a feature that is only available
in the GNU implementation of awk (gawk). So the ctags auto-completion feature
was broken in Kakoune if the installed version of awk was nawk or mawk.
This simple change makes it retro-compatible with those versions.
See https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Printf-Ordering.html
When calling `:gopls definition`, the gopls LSP server returns the location of
the selected definition. Then, `gopls.kak` tries to parse this output to
feed the `:edit` command and open the file in Kakoune. To do this, it
uses `sed` to transform `<path>.go:<line>:<colstart>-<colend>` to `<path>.go
<line> <colstart>`. However, if the `<path>` contains a dash character,
the `sed` will fail and strip everything after this first dash, removing
the line and columns information.
Closes#4776
