# Description
As title, currently on latest main, nushell confused user if it allows
implicit casting between glob and string:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test $x
```
It always expand the glob although `$x` is defined as a string.
This pr implements a solution from @kubouch :
> We could make it really strict and disallow all autocasting between
globs and strings because that's what's causing the "magic" confusion.
Then, modify all builtins that accept globs to accept oneof(glob,
string) and the rules would be that globs always expand and strings
never expand
# User-Facing Changes
After this pr, user needs to use `into glob` to invoke `glob-test`, if
user pass a string variable:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test ($x | into glob)
```
Or else nushell will return an error.

# Description
Previously, only direcly-recursive calls were checked for recursion
depth. But most recursive calls in nushell are mutually recursive since
expressions like `for`, `where`, `try` and `do` all execute a separte
block.
```nushell
def f [] {
do { f }
}
```
Calling `f` would crash nushell with a stack overflow.
I think the only general way to prevent such a stack overflow is to
enforce a maximum call stack depth instead of only disallowing directly
recursive calls.
This commit also moves that logic into `eval_call()` instead of
`eval_block()` because the recursion limit is tracked in the `Stack`,
but not all blocks are evaluated in a new stack. Incrementing the
recursion depth of the caller's stack would permanently increment that
for all future calls.
Fixes#11667
# User-Facing Changes
Any function call can now fail with `recursion_limit_reached` instead of
just directly recursive calls. Mutually-recursive calls no longer crash
nushell.

I think `ParseWarning::Deprecated` is useful when we want to deprecated
something at syntax level, so I just leave it there for now.

# Description
Fixes: #11455
### For arguments which is annotated with `:path/:directory/:glob`
To fix the issue, we need to have a way to know if a path is originally
quoted during runtime. So the information needed to be added at several
levels:
* parse time (from user input to expression)
We need to add quoted information into `Expr::Filepath`,
`Expr::Directory`, `Expr::GlobPattern`
* eval time
When convert from `Expr::Filepath`, `Expr::Directory`,
`Expr::GlobPattern` to `Value::String` during runtime, we won't auto
expanded the path if it's quoted
### For `ls`
It's really special, because it accepts a `String` as a pattern, and it
generates `glob` expression inside the command itself.
So the idea behind the change is introducing a special SyntaxShape to
ls: `SyntaxShape::LsGlobPattern`. So we can track if the pattern is
originally quoted easier, and we don't auto expand the path either.
Then when constructing a glob pattern inside ls, we check if input
pattern is quoted, if so: we escape the input pattern, so we can run `ls
a[123]b`, because it's already escaped.
Finally, to accomplish the checking process, we also need to introduce a
new value type called `Value::QuotedString` to differ from
`Value::String`, it's used to generate an enum called `NuPath`, which is
finally used in `ls` function. `ls` learned from `NuPath` to know if
user input is quoted.
# User-Facing Changes
Actually it contains several changes
### For arguments which is annotated with `:path/:directory/:glob`
#### Before
```nushell

#### After
```nushell

~/a
~/a

### For ls command
`touch '[uwu]'`

Fixes: #11438
Take the following as example:
```nushell
def spam [foo: string] {
$'foo: ($foo | describe)'
}
def outer [--foo: string] {
spam $foo
}
outer
```
When we call `outer`, type checker only check the all for `outer`, but
doesn't check inside the body of `outer`. This pr is trying to introduce
a type checking process through `Type::is_subtype()` during eval time.
## NOTE
I'm not really sure if it's easy to make a check inside the body of
`outer`. Adding an eval time type checker seems like an easier solution.
As a result: `outer` will be caught by runtime, not parse time type
checker

While #11057 is merged, it's hard to tell the difference between
`--flag: bool` and `--flag`, and it makes user hard to read custom
commands' signature, and hard to use them correctly.
After discussion, I think we can deprecate `--flag: bool` usage, and
encourage using `--flag` instead.
# User-Facing Changes
The following code will raise warning message, but don't stop from
running.

# Description
Closes: #7260
About the change:
When we make an internalcall, and meet a `switch` (Flag.arg is None),
nushell will try to see if the switch is called like `--xyz=false` , if
that is true, `parse_long_flag` will return relative value.
# User-Facing Changes
So after the pr, the following would be possible:
```nushell
def build-imp [--push, --release] {
echo $"Doing a build with push: ($push) and release: ($release)"
}
def build [--push, --release] {
build-imp --push=$push --release=$release
}
build --push --release=false
build --push=false --release=true
build --push=false --release=false
build --push --release
build

Needs to submit a doc update, mentioned about the difference between
`def a [--x] {}` and `def a [--x: bool] {}`
# Description
Fixes: #11033
Sorry for the issue, it's a regression which introduce by this pr:
#10456.
And this pr is going to fix it.
About the change: create a new field named `type_annotated` for
`Arg::Flag` and `Arg::Signature` instead of `arg_explicit_type`
variable.
When we meet a type in `TypeMode`, we set `type_annotated` field of the
argument to be true, then we know that if the arg have a annotated type
easily
# Description
Fixes: #10450
This pr differentiating between `--x: bool` and `--x`
Here are examples which demostrate difference between them:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x };
a --x # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
a # it's allowed, and the value of `$x` is false, which behaves the same to `def a [--x] { $x }; a`
```
For boolean flag with default value, it works a little bit different to
#10450 mentioned:
```nushell
def foo [--option: bool = false] { $option }
foo # output false
foo --option # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
foo --option true # output true
```
# User-Facing Changes
After the pr, the following code is not allowed:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x }; a --x
```
Instead, you have to pass a value to flag `--x` like `a --x false`. But
bare flag works in the same way as before.
## Update: one more breaking change to help on #7260
```
def foo [--option: bool] { $option == null }
foo
```
After the pr, if we don't use a boolean flag, the value will be `null`
instead of `true`. Because here `--option: bool` is treated as a flag
rather than a switch

# Description
This PR adds back the functionality to auto-expand tables based on the
terminal width, using the logic that if the terminal is over 100 columns
to expand.
This sets the default config value in both the Rust and the default
nushell config.
To do so, it also adds back the ability for hooks to be strings of code
and not just code blocks.
Fixed a couple tests: two which assumed that the builtin display hook
didn't use a table -e, and one that assumed a hook couldn't be a string.

# Description
The working directory doesn't have to be set for those tests (or would
be the default anyways). When appropriate also remove calls to the
`pipeline()` function. In most places kept the diff minimal and only
removed the superfluous part to not pollute the blame view. With simpler
tests also simplified things to make them more readable overall (this
included removal of the raw string literal).
Work for #8670
# Description
This PR is just a minor development improvement. While working on
another feature, I noticed that the root crate lists the super useful
`pretty_assertions` in the root crate but doesn't use it in most tests.
With this change `pretty_assertions::assert_eq!` is used instead of
`core::assert_eq!` for better diffs when debugging the tests.
I thought of adding the dependency to other crates but I decided not to
since I didn't want a huge disruptive PR :)
Add recursion limit to `def` and `block`.
Summary of this PR , it will detect if `def` call itself or not .
Then execute by using `stack` which I think best choice to use with this
design and core as it is available in all crates and mutable and
calculate the recursion limit on calling `def`.
Set 50 as recursion limit on `Config`.
Add some tests too .

# Description
Purely for consistency, various remaining instances of `$nothing`
(almost all of which were in test code) have been changed to `null`.
Now, the only place that refers to `$nothing` is the parser code which
implements it.

The default config.nu now uses `null` in certain places where it used
`$nothing`.
