If a background process runs a fish function which launches another
background process, ensure that these background procs get different
pgroups. Add a test for it.
This executes `fish --no-execute` a whole bunch of times in order to
find syntax errors in our fish scripts.
tests/ is exempt because it contains syntax errors on purpose.
This is a great idea in principle, but it takes ~4s on my system.
It used to error out when a command wasn't known, even when it was a
function that would only be discovered via autoloading.
Now we just accept that a command doesn't exist when no-execute is
given - we're not gonna execute it anyway.
Also, in the same breath stop counting empty commands after expansion
and empty wildcard expansions as errors - these depend on runtime
values, so we can't verify them without executing.
Fixes#977.
(note that it still executes "time", but that's another commit)
Appending to an fd doesn't really make sense, but we allowed the
syntax previously and it was actually used.
It's not too harmful to allow it, so let's just do that again.
For the record: Zsh also allows it, bash doesn't.
Fixes#6614
Glob ordering is used in a variety of places, including figuring out
conf.d and really needs to be stable.
Other ordering, like completions, is really just cosmetic and can
change if it makes for a nicer experience.
So we uncouple it by copying the wcsfilecmp from 3.0.2, which will
return the ordering to what it was in that release.
Fixes#6593
The `function --on-job-exit caller` feature allows a command substitution
to observe when the parent job exits. This has never worked very well - in
particular it is based on job IDs, so a function that observes this will
run multiple times. Implement it properly.
Do this by having a not-recycled "internal job id".
This is only used by psub, but ensure it works properly none-the-less.
This one tests a bunch of separate stuff, so we put it into a few
different files.
The main, new one is "slices.fish", which tests various index expressions.
This makes two changes:
1. Remove the 'brace_text_start' idea. The idea of 'brace_text_start' was
to prevent emitting `BRACE_SPACE` at the beginning or end of an item. But
we later strip these off anyways, so there is no apparent benefit. If we
are not doing brace expansion, this prevented emitting whitespace at the
beginning or end of an item, leading to #6564.
2. When performing brace expansion, only stomp the space character with
`BRACE_SPACE`; do not stomp newlines and tabs. This is because the fix in
came from a newline or tab literal, then we would have effectively
replaced a newline or tab with a space, so this is important for #6564 as
well. Moreover, it is not easy to place a literal newline or tab inside a
brace expansion, and users who do probably do not mean for it to be
stripped, so I believe this is a good change in general.
