Through a mechanism I don't entirely understand, $PWD is sometimes
writable (so that `cd` can change it) and sometimes not.
In this case we ended up with it writable, which is wrong.
See #8179.
This didn't do all the syntax checks, so something like
fish -c 'echo foo; and $status'
complained of a missing command `0` (i.e. $status), and
fish -c 'echo foo | exec grep'
hit an assert!
So we do what read_ni does, parse each command into an ast, run
parse_util_detect_errors on it if it worked and then eval the ast.
It is possible to do this neater by modifying parser::eval, but I
can't find where.
This is slightly unclean. Even tho it would otherwise be syntactically
valid, using $status as a command is very very very likely to be an
error, like
if not $status
We have reports of this surprisingly regularly, including #2773.
Because $status can only ever be a value from 0 to 255, it is also
very unlikely to be an actual command, and that command is very
unlikely to do what you want.
So we simply point the user towards the "conditions" help section,
that should explain things.
This means, if we repaint with a shorter prompt, we won't overwrite the longer parts.
This reintroduces #8002, but that's a much rarer usecase - having a prompt that fills the entire screen,
in certain terminals.
This reverts commit d3ceba107e.
Fixes#8163.
This is opt-in through a new feature flag "ampersand-nobg-in-token".
When this flag and "qmark-noglob" are enabled, this command no longer
needs quoting:
curl https://example.com/thing?foo=bar&duran=duran
Compared to the previous approach e1570a4 ("Let '&' only separate as
the first char of a word"), this has some advantages:
1. "&&" and "&>" are no longer affected. They are still special, even
if used between tokens without spaces, like "echo bar&>foo".
Maybe this is not really *better*, but it avoids risking to annoy
users by breaking the old variant.
2. "&" is still special if at the end of a token, like in "sleep 1&".
Word movement is not affected by the semantics change, so Alt-F and
friends still stop at every "&".
Ubuntu's fish package on WSL 1 has xsel as recommended dependency,
even though there is no X server available. This change makes us
use Windows' native clipboard even when xsel is installed.
We keep __fish_is_nth_token for compatibility and edit the
implementations of __fish_is_nth_token, __fish_is_first_token and
__fish_is_token_n to use fish_is_nth_token
Using `complete -F -c git -n __fish_git_needs_subcommand -a $command -d
$description` causes file completions to be forced on entire git command
which is not a desired result. Morever without the `-F` flag file
completions work just as expected and is useless addition
