String tokens are subdivided by command substitutions. Some syntax errors
can occur in the gap between two command substitutions. Make the caret point
to the start of that gap, instead of the token start.
When expanding command substitutions, we use a naïve way of detecting whether
the cmdsub has the optional leading dollar. We check if the last character was
a dollar, which breaks if it's an escaped dollar. We wrongly expand
\$(echo "") to the empty string. Fix this by checking if the dollar was escaped.
The parse_util_* functions have a bunch of output parameters. We should
return a parameter bag instead (I think I tried once and failed).
Given
set var a
echo "$var$(echo b)"
the double-quoted string is expanded right-to-left, so we construct an
intermediate "$varb". Since the variable "varb" is undefined, this wrongly
expands to the empty string (should be "ab"). Fix this by isolating the
expanded command substitution internally. We do the same when handling
unquoted command substitutions.

1. Bravely use a real enum for has_arg, despite the warnings.
2. Use some C++11 initializers so we don't have to pass an int for this
parameter.
No functional change expected here.
If the history file is larger than 4GB on a 32 bit system, fish will
refuse to read it. However the check was incorrect because it cast the
file size to size_t, which may be 32 bit. Switch to using uint64.
fd_monitor is used when an external command pipes into a buffer, e.g. for
command substitutions. It monitors the read end of the external command's
pipe in the background, and fills the buffer as data arrives. fd_monitor is
multiplexed, so multiple buffers can be monitored at once by a single
thread.
It may happen that there's no active buffer fill; in this case fd_monitor
wants to keep its thread alive for a little bit in case a new one arrives.
This is useful for e.g. handling loops where you run the same command
multiple times.
However there was a bug due to a refactoring which caused fd_monitor to
exit too aggressively. This didn't affect correctness but it meant more
thread creation and teardown.
Fix this; this improves the aliases.fish benchmark by about 20 msec.
No need to changelog this IMO.
This was already apparently supposed to work, but didn't because we
just overrode errno again.
This now means that, if a correctly named candidate exists, we don't
start the command-not-found handler.
See #8804
This used to call exec_subshell, which has two issues:
1. It creates a command substitution block which shows up in a stack
trace
2. It does much more work than necessary
This removes a useless "in command substitution" from an error message
in an autoloaded file, and it speeds up autoloading a bit (not
measurable in actual benchmarks, but microbenchmarks are 2x).
We need special handling when reporting backtraces for commands run
during startup, i.e. config.fish. Previously we had a global variable;
make it local to the parser to eliminate a global.
No functional change here.
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.
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.
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.
