This fixes several problems with how the builtin `history` command handles
arguments. It now complains and refuses to do anything if the user specifies
incompatible actions (e.g., `--search` and `--clear`). It also fixes a
regression introduced by previous changes with regard to invocations that
don't explicitly specify `--search` or a search term.
Enhances the history man page to clarify the behavior of various options.
This change is already far larger than I like so unit tests will be added
in a separate commit.
Fixes#3224.
Note: This fixes only a couple problems with the interactive `history
--delete` command in the `history` function. The main problem will be
dealt with via issue #31.
We don't seem to mention in the documentation that we were forcing
-t for all interactive uses. If we want to do that we should apply
that in the builtin.
history.fish reimplementing every option and doing things kind of
differently is a real pain and it's not clear if the docs are
referring to the or the wrapper script or both.
The previous commit to add a `--with-timestamp` flag to the `history` command
caused me to notice the history function didn't recognize the new long option.
Neither did it recognize the short options for the builtin command. This
change fixes both of those issues.
It's currently too easy for someone to bork their shell by doing something
like `function test; return 0; end`. That's obviously a silly, contrived,
example but the point is that novice users who learn about functions are
prone to do something like that without realizing it will bork the shell. Even
expert users who know about the `test` builtin might forget that, say, `pwd`
is a builtin.
This change adds a `--shadow-builtin` flag that must be specified to
indicate you know what you're doing.
Fixes#3000
I'm going to modify these functions as part of dealing with issue #3000
and don't want those changes to be masked by running the files through
`make style`.
(Ideally, the behaviour of git could be implemented: pipe the input
through a pager iff the length is > window size and in interactive
mode).
Closes#1076.
