Add the input function undo which is bound to `\c_` (control + / on
some terminals). Redoing the most recent chain of undos is supported,
redo is bound to `\e/` for now.
Closes#1367.
This approach should not have the issues discussed in #5897.
Every single modification to the commandline can be undone individually,
except for adjacent single-character inserts, which are coalesced,
so they can be reverted with a single undo. Coalescing is not done for
space characters, so each word can be undone separately.
When moving between history search entries, only the current history
search entry is reachable via the undo history. This allows to go back
to the original search string with a single undo, or by pressing the
escape key.
Similarly, when moving between pager entries, only the most recent
selection in the pager can be undone.
This is part of our (well, my) quest to spice up the default prompt.
In this case we color the host if $SSH_TTY is set, which is easy to
detect and helps draw attention to the host.

First tell them how to install (though we don't actually do that right
now), then tell them how to start it, and only *then* tell them how to
make it the default or uninstall it.
Just seems sensible to try it first then delete it.
Some more sections here were duplicated or not all that useful, and
it's weird to start with "Commands versus Functions".
Let's explain to people how to start fish, then let's get going.
This adds string-x.rst for each subcommand x of string. The main page
(string.rst) is not changed, except that examples are shown directly after
each subcommand. The subcommand sections in string.rst are created by
textual inclusion of parts of the string-x.rst files.
Subcommand man pages can be viewed with either of:
```
man string collect
man string-collect
string collect <press F1 or Alt-h>
string collect -h
```
While `string -h ...` still prints the full help.
Closes#5968
This adds support for `fish_trace`, a new variable intended to serve the
same purpose as `set -x` as in bash. Setting this variable to anything
non-empty causes execution to be traced. In the future we may give more
specific meaning to the value of the variable.
The user's prompt is not traced unless you run it explicitly. Events are
also not traced because it is noisy; however autoloading is.
Fixes#3427
Someone has hit the 10MiB limit (and of course it's the number of
javascript packages), and we don't handle it fantastically currently.
And even though you can't pass a variable of that size in one go, it's
plausible that someone might do it in multiple passes.
See #5267.
Brace expansion with single words in it is quite useless - `HEAD@{0}`
expanding to `HEAD@0` breaks git.
So we complicate the rule slightly - if there is no variable expansion
or "," inside of braces, they are just treated as literal braces.
Note that this is technically backwards-incompatible, because
echo foo{0}
will now print `foo{0}` instead of `foo0`. However that's a
technicality because the braces were literally useless in that case.
Our tests needed to be adjusted, but that's because they are meant to
exercise this in weird ways.
I don't believe this will break any code in practice.
Fixes#5869.
We were flip-flopping between the two terms, so we now use one. We
still mention "array" in the chapter, and it's still `read --array`,
though.
Fixes#5846.
