Some dotfile users like to add directories to PATH that point at
non-existent directories (because those directories exist on other
machines). Stop warning in that case, unless those directories contain
a colon, in which case it's probably a user error.
Changed cd completion to differentiate between cd autosuggest and cd tab
completion. cd autosuggest will find deepest unique hierarchy and cd tab
completion will not.
Issue #4402
This untangles the CMake versioning issues (I hope) as discussed in #4626.
Note most of the advice found on the Internet about how to inject git
versions into CMake is just wrong.
The behavior we want is to unconditionally run the script
build_tools/git_version_gen.sh at build time (i.e. when you invoke ninja or
make, and not when you invoke cmake, which is build system generation time).
This script is careful to only update the FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE if the
contents have changed, to avoid spurious rebuilding dependencies of
FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE. Assuming the git version hasn't changed, the script
will run, but not update FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE, and therefore
fish_version.o will not have to be rebuilt.
This might normally rebuild more than is necessary even if the timestamp is
not updated, because ninja computes the dependency chain ahead of time. But
Ninja also supports the 'restat' option for just this case, and CMake is rad
and exposes this via BYPRODUCTS. So mark FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE as a
byproduct and make the script always update a dummy file
(fish-build-version-witness.txt). Note this is the use case for which
BYPRODUCTS is designed.
We also have fish_version.cpp #include "FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE", and do a
semi-silly thing and make FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE valid C++ (so there's just
one version file). This means we have to filter out the quotes in other
cases..
This reverts commit 25839b8c36.
This was an attempt to simplify the version generation, but it
computed the version at build sytem generation time rather than
at build time, requiring another run of CMake to update it.
Correctly generate FISH_BUILD_VERSION for use in fish_version.h/cpp and
fish.pc to allow `fish --version` and `echo $version` to work again.
Not needing the same convoluted measures used by Makefile builds to
prevent the regeneration of the fish version file when it hasn't
changed.
Purposely created a new `cmake_git_version_gen.sh` file so that the old
`git_version_gen.sh` remains compatible with the existing Makefile build
script. Same reason why `fish.pc.in` was not modified to use a lowercase
variable name to match the CMAKE variable of the same name.
Closes#4626
A large portion of time was spent constructing strings and passing
them to debug(). Turn debug into a macro so that the strings are only
constructed if they're going to be printed.
This adds a new class arg_iterator_t which encapsulates decisions about
whether to read arguments from stdin or argv. It also migrates the
unread bytes buffer from a static variable to an instance variable.
Profiling with callgrind revealed that about 60% of the time in a `something | string match` call
was actually spent in `string_get_arg_stdin()`,
because it was calling `read` one byte at a time.
This makes it read in chunks similar to builtin read.
This increases performance for `getent hosts | string match -v '0.0.0.0*'` from about 300ms to about 30ms (i.e. 90%).
At that point it's _actually_ quicker than `grep`.
To improve performance even more, we'd have to cut down on str2wcstring.
Fixes#4604.
Prior to this fix, a "bare variable" in math like 'x + 1' would be
looked up in the environment, i.e. equivalent to '$x + 1'. This appears
to have been done for performance. However this breaks the orthogonality
of fish; performance is not a sufficient justification to give math this
level of built-in power, especially because the performance of math is
not a bottleneck. The implementation is also ugly.
Remove this feature so that variables must be prefixed with the dollar
sign and undergo normal variable expansion. Reading 'git grep' output
does not show any uses of this in fish functions or completions.
Also added to changelog.
Fixes#4393
For some reason on Solaris the previous code was refusing to compile
with an error (regarding the declaration of stdout in the opts struct)
error: declaration of ‘__iob’ as array of references
The obvious guess that it had something to do with the name of the
variable in question proved true; renaming it from `stdout` to
`opts.stdout` allows the build to go through.
macOS 10.5 and earlier do not support the convention of returning
a dynamically allocated string, plus this seems like an unnecessary
malloc. Always allocate a buffer for realpath() to write into.
It seems that `parse_cmd_opts` does not correctly handle no arguments,
and so argc was being decremented to -1 causing uninitialized memory
access when argv[0] was dereferenced at a later point.
No longer using `-` to indicate reading to stdout. Use lack of arguments
as stdout indicator. This prevents mixing of variables with stdout
reading and makes it clear that stdout may not be mixed with delimiters
or array mode.
Added an option to read to stdout via `read -`. While it may seem
useless at first blush, it lets you do things like include
mysql -p(read --silent) ...
Without needing to save to a local variable and then echo it back.
Kicks in when `-` is provided as the variable name to read to. This is
in keeping with the de facto syntax for reading/writing from/to
stdin/stdout instead of a file in, e.g., tar, cat, and other standard
unix utilities.
