If dotspacemacs-auto-generate-layout-names is non-nil, and the user
tries to open a layout in a position that doesn't yet have a layout,
then create a new layout with an automatically generated name.
This allows the user to, for instance, include the spacemacs tree as a
git submodule of their configuration repository without seeing
superfluous warnings.
Add two new functions: `spacemacs/transient-state-register-add-bindings`
and `spacemacs/transient-state-register-remove-bindings` to prevent layer
authors and end users from dealing with the underlying variables' subtleties.
At the moment a Quelpa recipe like `(recipe :fetcher local)` is being translated
to something like
`(recipe :fetcher file :path "my-layer/local/my-pkg/my-pkg.el")`. So we can
build simple single-file local packages.
This commit changes it to translate to the package directory instead of exact lisp
file, so we can build multi-file local packages. Thus, the above example will be
translated to `(recipe :fetcher file :path "my-layer/local/my-pkg")`.
Also, add the relevant info to LAYERS.org.
Some of the layers do not supply a README.org file which caused
invalid links in the layer list. To avoid this I have changed
spacemacs//generate-layers-from-path to only add links to layers
with a valid README.org file.
I have also removed an invalid check to exclude the non existing directory
"distribution" from the layers list. I think that originally the folder
"distributions" should have been excluded but this is not longer
a feasible action as there is at least one layer with a valid README.org
file in there today. So now we add links to all layers providing a
README.org file independent of their category.
In 2015 a file CONTRIBUTE.org was existing in the /doc folder.
In addition a CONTRIBUTING.md file was existing in the project root folder.
This was merged into a CONTRIBUTING.org file, which is still located in the project root.
However the documentation publishing system was still looking only in the doc folder.
In addition the external documentation is still referring to the old CONTRIBUTE.html which is not longer existing.
I have now included a new function called prior to publishing
which is copying the documents from the projects root into the doc folder.
As a side effect it renames the CONTRIBUTING.org to the old CONTRIBUTE.org
to support the external documentation.
Specifying parent modes (e.g. prog-mode) in :enabled-for-modes and
:disabled-for-modes keys in dotspacemacs-line-numbers catches derived
modes (e.g. c-mode) as well.
Fix bug where an empty :disabled-for-modes and a non-empty :enabled-for-modes
enabled line numbers everywhere, instead of only in modes specified in
:enabled-for-modes. (see https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/8482)
Add auxiliary function spacemacs/derived-mode-p, similar to derived-mode-p but
takes a major-mode as an argument instead of using the current major-mode.
