reorganize spacemacs-base distribution into +spacemacs/spacemacs-xxx This idea is to have the spacemacs-base distribution only configure defaults for built-in packages. Those buit-in packages are now configured in the new layer spacemacs-defaults. Additionally some other packages of spacemacs-base have been dispatched to better suiting spacemacs layers. Projectile has been moved to the new layer spacemacs-project - Move the following packages to bootsrap distributio layer: - exec-path-from-shell - evil-evilified-state - holy-mode - hybrid-mode - spacemacs-theme - ace-window has been moved to spacemacs-navigation - centered-buffer-mode has been moved to spacemacs-editing-visual - pcre2el has been moved to spacemacs-editing - evil-escape and evil-visualstar have been moved to spacemacs-evil 2018-03-05 01:36:40 +00:00			`#+TITLE: spacemacs-defaults`

Add support for native line numbers in Emacs 26 Emacs 26.1 will introduce a new native line numbers feature: "display-line-numbers". It includes relative line numbers, is faster than current linum-mode, and doesn't use the margin area (it has its own area). So yeah, we want to use the new feature when possible. No changes are required on the user side, except for Emacs 26 users are recommended to remove nlinum layer from their configuration (if they have enabled it). With this change: - Emacs 26: - uses display-line-numbers by default. - linum and linum-relative packages are excluded. - Emacs 25: - does NOT use display-line-numbers. - continues to use linum and linum-relative. - nlinum layer: - can still be used as before in Emacs 25. - is NOT recommended in Emacs 26, but can be used. - when enabled, excludes display-line-numbers. Also contains some bug fixes: Fixes a bug where setting `dostpacemacs-line-numbers` to `t` or `relative` enabled line numbers in every buffer, instead of only in buffers that derive from prog-mode and text-mode. Likewise fixes a bug where specifying `:enabled-for-modes nil` (or not specifying `:enabled-for-modes` at all) in `dotspacemacs-line-numbers` settings meant "enable in all modes" instead of "enable in modes derived from prog-mode or text-mode". Because of this change, also adds a way for users to enable line numbers in all buffers. Removes check for special buffer. All our current checks should be enough to enable line numbers only where it makes sense. Disabling in all special buffers is not necessary. 2018-05-10 17:10:31 +00:00			`- display-line-numbers (only in Emacs 26.x and newer)`
