Prior to this commit, fish used NUL ('\0') to disable control
functions (for example, the function that generates SIGTSTP).
However NUL may in fact be bindable and is on macOS via
control-space.
Use instead _POSIX_VDISABLE if defined and not -1.
This was always awkward as fish script, and had problems with
interrupting the autoloading.
Note that we still leave the old function intact to facilitate easier
upgrading for now.
Fixes#7145.
Page-Down seems to deactivate history search, so trying to undo
would leave the command line in an inconsistent state.
Fixes#7162 which was introduced in
12a9cb29 Fix assertion failure on page up / page down
It is used exclusively as vector at the moment since we only ever append
at the end. Making it a deque would be useful when allowing to edit the
search string and subsequently resume the search at an arbitrary position
in the history.
When editing a multiline command line and pressing "up" with the cursor at the
first line, fish attempts a hsitory search. If the search fails, don't move
the cursor to the end of the multiline command because this can be annoying
when the user does not actually want to perform a history search.
Current firefox-developer-edition (i.e. the beta) blocks here.
This is awful and bad, but we can easily work around it by just using
a thread.

Fixes#7158
Add a helper function to check if the user is root. This function can be
useful for the prompts for example. Modify the prompts made root checked
to use the function instead. Add also the support of Administrator like
a root user.
Fixes: #7031
After profiling bottlenecks in job execution, the calls to `tcgetpgrp`
were identified to take a good amount of the execution time. Collecting
metrics on which branches were taken revealed that in all "normal"
cases, there is no benefit to calling `tcgetpgrp` before calling
`tcsetpgrp` as it can instead be called only in the error case to
determine what sort of error handling behavior should be applied.
This makes the best-case scenario of a single syscall much more likely
than in the previous situation.
Profiling revealed string comparison in variable lookups to be a
significant hotspot. This change causes `make test` to complete ~4.5%
faster per `hyperfine`.
This was originally comparing two pointers for equality but after the
refactor to wcstring it ended up comparing a const string pointer to the
_contents_ of the wcstring.
I really kinda hate how insistent clang-format is to have line
breaks *IFF THE LINE IS TOO LONG*.
Like... lemme just add a break if it looks better, will you?
But it is the style at this time, so we shall tie an onion to our
belt.
* completions/git: Show all accepted values with git config
Finally closes#3812.
Acceptable values are generated using `git help --config`
* completions/git: Show config value as description for git config
* completions/git: Handle multiline config values
When completing `git config` only display the first
line of config value as description if it is
multiline, appended with an ellipsis.
* Fix#7113 (cannot call help using msys2), correct a few regexes.
* Use regex instead of glob-style matching
* Match `\.exe$` instead of `cmd\.exe$` for WSL
* Match `\.exe(\s+|$)` instead of `\.exe$` and `cmd\.exe$`
* Fix a few regexes
This allows cygstart to be manually set as a browser, with or without arguments
