Cancellation groups were meant to reflect the following idea: if you ran a
simple block:
begin
cmd1
cmd2
end
then under job control, cmd1 and cmd2 would get separate groups; however if
either exits due to SIGINT or SIGQUIT we also want to propagate that to the
outer block. So the outermost block and its interior jobs would share a
cancellation group. However this is more complex than necessary; it's
sufficient for the execution context to just store an int internally.
This ought not to affect anything user-visible.
Currently, when a variable like $fish_color_command is set but empty:
set -g fish_color_command
what happens is that highlight parses it and ends up with a "normal"
color.
Change it so instead it sees that the variable is empty and goes
on to check the fallback variable, e.g. fish_color_normal.
That makes it easier to make themes that override variables.
This means that older themes that expect an empty variable to be
"normal" need to be updated to set it to "normal".
Following from this, we could make writing .theme files easier by no
longer requiring them to list all variables with specific values.
Either the theme reader could be updated to implicitly set known color
variables to empty, or the themes could feature empty values.
See #8787.
fish reads the tty modes at startup, and tries to restore them to the
original values on exit, to be polite. However this causes problems when
fish is run in a pipeline with another process which also messes with the
tty modes. Example:
fish -c 'echo foo' | vim -
Here vim's manipulation of the tty would race with fish, and often vim
would end up with broken modes.
Only restore the tty if we are interactive. Fixes#8705.
This is a big cleanup to how tty transfer works. Recall that when job
control is active, we transfer the tty to jobs via tcsetpgrp().
Previously, transferring was done "as needed" in continue_job. That is, if
we are running a job, and the job wants the terminal and does not have it,
we will transfer the tty at that point.
This got pretty weird when running mixed pipelines. For example:
cmd1 | func1 | cmd2
Here we would run `func1` before calling continue_job. Thus the tty
would be transferred by the nested function invocation, and also restored
by that invocation, potentially racing with tty manipulation from cmd1 or
cmd2.
In the new model, migrate the tty transfer responsibility outside of
continue_job. The caller of continue_job is then responsible for setting up
the tty. There's two places where this gets done:
1. In `exec_job`, where we run a job for the first time.
2. In `builtin_fg` where we continue a stopped job in the foreground.
Fixes#8699
This is a cleanup of job groups, rationalizing a bunch of stuff. Some
notable changes (none user-visible hopefully):
1. Previously, if a job group wanted a pgid, then we would assign it to the
first process to run in the job group. Now we deliberately mark which
process will own the pgroup, via a new `leads_pgrp` flag in process_t. This
eliminates a source of ambiguity.
2. Previously, if a job were run inside fish's pgroup, we would set fish's
pgroup as the group of the job. But this meant we had to check if the job
had fish's pgroup in lots of places, for example when calling tcsetpgrp.
Now a job group only has a pgrp if that pgrp is external (i.e. the job is
under job control).
* Turn on default bindings for --no-config mode
The fallback bindings are super awkward to use.
This was called out specifically in #7921, I'm going for the targeted
fix for now.
* Only change keybindings when interactive
That's also when we'd source them normally.
This tried migrating old abbreviations *twice* - once from the 2.3
scheme to the 2.4 one, and once from that to the 3.0 scheme.
Since this is purely for upgrading from fishes < 3.0, and basically
untested, let's remove it.
If anyone does that upgrade, they'll simply have to reexecute the abbrs.
These were changed in fish 3.0 in December 2018.
This means upgrading from fish 2.7.1 or earlier to the next fish
version will require users to set their universal variable again.
Because we reload changed function files, a common issue on upgrading
to 3.4.0 is that fish_title causes errors.
So we simply use the oldschool syntax.
(cherry picked from commit c5a8764db1)
This just defines a constant to whichever tparm implementation we're
using (either the actual, working one the system provides, or our
kludge to paper over Solaris' inadequacies).
This means that there won't be so much ping-ponging of what "tparm"
stands for. "tparm" is the system's function. Only we don't use it,
just like we don't use wcstod directly.

* New -n flag for string join command.
This is an argument that excludes empty result items. Fixes#8351
* New documentation for string-join.
The new argument --no-empty was added at string-join manpage.
* New completions for the new -n flag for string join.
* Remove the documentation of the new -n flag of string join0
The reason to remove this new argument in the join0 is that this flag basically doesn't make any difference in the join0.
* Refactor the validation for the string join.
The string join command was using the length of the argument, this commit changes the validation to use the empty function.
* Revert #4b56ab452
The reason for the revert is thath the build broke on the ubuntu in the Github actions.
* Revert #e72e239a1
The reason the compilation on GitHub broke is that the test was weird, it didn't even run it, Common CI systems are typically very very resource-constrained.
* Resolve conflicts in the string-join.rst.
* Resolve conflicts in the "string-join.rst".
commit #1242d0fd7 not fixed all conflicts.
This is supposed to detect color escape sequences, to figure out how
long an escape sequence is, for use in width calculations.
However, the typical color sequences are already taken care of by
is_csi_style_escape_seq because they look like a csi sequence starting
with `\e[` and ending in `m`.
In the entire terminfo database shipped with ncurses 6.3, these are
the terminals that have non-csi color sequences:
at-color
atari-color
atari_st-color
d220-dg
d230-dg
d230c-dg
d430-dg
d430-unix
d430-unix-25
d430-unix-s
d430-unix-sr
d430-unix-w
d430c-dg
d430c-unix
d430c-unix-25
d430c-unix-s
d430c-unix-sr
d430c-unix-w
d470-dg
d470c-dg
dg+fixed
dgmode+color
dgmode+color8
dgunix+fixed
emu
fbterm
i3164
ibm3164
linux-m1b
linux-m2
minitel1
minitel1b
putty-m1b
putty-m2
st52-color
tt52
tw52
tw52-color
xterm-8bit
Most of these were discontinued in the 90s and their manufacturers no
longer exist (like Data General, which went defunct in 1999). The last one is a special mode for xterm that is
fundamentally UTF-8 incompatible because it encodes a CSI as \X9b.
The linux/putty m1b and m2 entries (also for minitel) don't support
color to begin with and the sequences they have in their terminfo
entries are control characters anyway, so the calculation would still
add up.
In turn, what we gain from this is much faster width calculations with
unrecognized escapes -
e.g. `string length -V \efoo` is sped up by a factor of 20.
An alternative would be to skip this if max_colors is > 16 as that is
the most any of these entries can do. The runtime scales linearly with
the number of colors so on those systems it would be reasonably quick anyway.
But given just *how* outdated these are I believe it is okay to just
remove support outright. I do not believe anyone has ever run fish on
any of these.
