* 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.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
``string join`` joins its *STRING* arguments into a single string separated by *SEP*, which can be an empty string. Exit status: 0 if at least one join was performed, or 1 otherwise. If ``-n`` or ``--no-empty`` is specified, empty strings are excluded from consideration (e.g. ``string join -n + a b "" c`` would expand to ``a+b+c`` not ``a+b++c``).
|
|
|
|
``string join0`` joins its *STRING* arguments into a single string separated by the zero byte (NUL), and adds a trailing NUL. This is most useful in conjunction with tools that accept NUL-delimited input, such as ``sort -z``. Exit status: 0 if at least one join was performed, or 1 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
Because Unix uses NUL as the string terminator, passing the output of ``string join0`` as an *argument* to a command (via a :ref:`command substitution <expand-command-substitution>`) won't actually work. Fish will pass the correct bytes along, but the command won't be able to tell where the argument ends. This is a limitation of Unix' argument passing.
