This sets the default distribution back to spacemacs. This is for people
who for whatever reason don't set `dotspacemacs-distribution` in their
dotfile.
Helm seems to treat "!" specially in pattern matching, so having a ! in
the pattern string when traversing directories is problematic. This
change fixes#2737, because as far as I can tell "+" has no special
meaning in a helm pattern.
Of course, we can choose a different character, but I'm fond of "+" as
representing "more layers here".
Now the user should use `SPC f e h` helm-spacemacs.
This is due to the fact that spacemacs layer is now a regular layer
stored in the "layers" directory.
- Rename contrib directory to layers
- Add new variable dotspacemacs-distribution
- Move spacemacs layer to layers/!distribution
- New layer spacemacs-core in layers/!distribution
- User can now set dotspacemacs-distribution to spacemacs or
spacemacs-core (default spacemacs)
spacemacs-core is very lightweight layer sufficient to build upon
spacemacs.
instead of the downloaded package archive. It fixes a case where
a package maintainer removes a dependency D of a package P and spacemacs
detects it which has the effect of deleting the obsolete package D, but
package-alist is not yet updated, because package-alist is updated only
when P is reinstalled (or upgraded).
Also it is not need to pass a list, example:
```
(setq dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((auto-completion :disabled-for org git)))
```
Will disable auto-completion for org and git layers.
Example:
(setq dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((auto-completion :disabled-for (org))))
Will not run any org/pre-init-xxx or org/post-init-xxx functions where
xxx is a package owned by the auto-completion layer.
Limitation:
If ownership of an auto-completion package P is stolen by another layer L
then :disabled-for must also be declared with L, otherwise the P will
be configured for org.
(setq dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((auto-completion :disabled-for (org))
(L :disabled-for (org)))
The user should not change the default owner of a layer unless really
required (for instance to use his own fork).
The test results buffer is displayed only if there are errors.
Make dotspacemacs/test-dotfile return non-nil when all the tests passed.
dotspacemacs/test-dotfile takes an optional parameter to hide the
result buffer.
Set as default unless user has dotspacemacs-use-ido t.
Adds comments to .spacemacs.template informing users of new behavior
tied to dotspacemacs-use-ido.
