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
This is equivalent to a change to grep.kak in 649e252f7 (bring *grep*
buffer to front in context of toolsclient, 2020-08-14).
If a toolsclient is set, make-next-error (and make-previous-error) will
jump to %opt{make_current_error_line}. This is wrong if the toolsclient
does not show the *make* buffer. In that case make_current_error_line
is undefined and we end up showing the goto menu. This has occasionally
been annoying me for a long time but I never bothered investigating.
Fix this by switching to the *make* buffer. The potential downside
is if make-next-error is run from the toolsclient, where we no longer
jump to the error but that's fine because we can use <ret>.
We can maybe improve this later by extending the logic, see
https://github.com/mawww/kakoune/pull/3656#pullrequestreview-472052285
We often use the pattern «map global normal ": foo"». The space
after the colon is unnecessary since execution of the mapping won't
add to history anyway, since 217dd6a1d (Disable history when executing
maps, 2015-11-10).
With the parent commit, the space is no longer necessary for user
mappings, so there is no reason to continue the cargo-cult.
Remove the space from mappings to set a good example.
If I use "man dirname" and select "basename"
SEE ALSO
basename(1), readlink(1)
^------^
then pressing <ret> to trigger man-jump selects everything from "ALSO"
until "basename(1)" Obviously that's not the name of a man page,
so it fails. When I select only "asename" it works.
The bad selection happens because we use a combination of <a-?> and ?
to extend the selection to a full link. This is more complicated than
it needs to be; let's just select the surrounding WORD. This works
fine because man page links never start mid-word, and trailing
characters are ignored anyway.
`x` is often criticized as hard to predict due to its slightly complex
behaviour of selecting next line if the current one is fully selected.
Change `x` to use the previous `<a-x>` behaviour, and change `<a-x>` to
trim to fully selected lines as `<a-X>` did.
Adapt existing indentation script to the new behaviour
Commit 85b78dda (src: Select the data inserted by `!` and `<a-!>`,
merged on 2021-03-06) broke autorestore by making it delete the
restored content. I've been using it for 6 months but never noticed
since I didn't use autorestore
Reproducer:
HOME=$PWD kak -s foo README.asciidoc -e 'exec iUNSAVED-CONTENT'
# In another terminal:
ps aux | awk '/kak -s foo/ {print $2; exit}' | xargs kill -HUP
HOME=$PWD kak -s foo README.asciidoc
Delete the trailing newline instead of the restored content.
While at it, remove some <space> commands from execute-keys, to make
it work on the breaking-cleanups branch which swaps <space> and ",".
Closes#4335
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
*.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.
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.

git-diff-goto-source is specific to diffs produced by Git. This patch
generalizes the logic and moves it to a new diff-jump in diff.kak.
The main differences are:
- diff-jump handles plain file diffs (i.e. without the -r option). These
have no "diff" line. This means that it needs to parse +++/--- instead.
- diff-jump can go to the old file, not just the new one.
- diff-jump allows to override the base directory and the number of
directory components to strip.
git-diff-goto-source was implemented with several nested try/catch
blocks. Implementing the extra features would have added more
nesting, redundancy or hidden options. To avoid that, I ported the
parsing logic to Perl (which git.kak already depends on). Maybe
it's possible to do the same in awk.
Potential concerns:
- We could move diff-jump to a new rc/tools/diff.kak but then it's not
obvious where the "diff" module belongs to.
- Should diff "diff-jump -1" be spelled "diff-jump -p1"?
In future, the diff parser could be reused to implement a vimdiff-style
feature: given a diff and the "old" line number, we can compute the
corresponding "new" line number. Perhaps diff-jump should get a -client
argument.
We want to move git-diff-goto-source from rc/tools/git.kak
to rc/filetype/diff.kak (or should we could create
rc/tools/diff.kak?). Either way, create the diff module so we can
formalize this dependency.
Currently this module only provides highlighters, so require it
wherever we reference them.
Keep the diff-select-{file,hunk} commands outside the module because
people might already use them in git buffers.
adds the ability to press <ret> within a hunk and navigate to the original
source code. This can be useful because one often needs to go back and forth
between the diff and the full source code.
- You can press <ret> anywhere _within_ a hunk i.e. lines that start with
` `, `+`, `-`. You will be taken to the exact line in the source that corresponds
to where you pressed <ret> in the hunk. It actually does not make sense
to press <ret> on a `-` line because that does not exist anymore but
in that case you are taken to a nearby line in the hope this is still useful.
- You can also press <ret> on a range line (lines that
look like @@ ... @@). If you press <ret> on anywhere on a range line e.g.
```
@@ -120,3 +123,4 @@ fn some_function {
```
The code will try to navigate to the section heading "fn some_function {"
Note that the section heading is _not_ necessarily located at the
range line (in the above example the range line is 123).
- You can press <ret> on a +++ line also and you will be taken the first
line of the file
Caveats:
- Navigation to the original source file will be accurate only if any edits to
the original source file have been saved to disk, because otherwise
they will not be detected by the `:git diff` or `:git show` commands
- This feature should work well for most typical uses e.g. `:git diff`, `:git diff HEAD^`
`:git diff <some-sha1>`. In fact this feature should work in all scenarios when
the *current files* on disk are being compared _with_ some arbitrary git revision/staging.
It will be less useful in other scenarios when two arbitrary revisions are being
compared to each other or when you are trying to compare staging to some revision.
For example when you invoke `:git diff --staged` you are trying to compare staging
with HEAD but are navigating to what is currently on disk (which may be different
from staging).

As per man page eval(1p):
> The eval utility shall construct a command by concatenating arguments together,
> separating each with a `<space>` character. The constructed command shall be
> read and executed by the shell.
When not quoting `$kak_opt_makecmd` in the eval, the variable is split by
newlines and spaces and then joined by spaces to form the command. If there
were newlines in `$kak_opt_makecmd`, the command would be malformed.
To reproduce:
```kak
set-option global makecmd "
echo foo
echo bar"
make a b c
```
Expected output in the `*make*` buffer:
```
foo
bar a b c
```
Actual output:
```
foo echo bar a b c
```
This patch fixes this.
