Although the docs show an example, but the paragraph below seems to imply that a
package can't be fetched directly off git. Update to make it more clear that it can.
problem:
The spacemacs-completion layer defines the variable:
helm-use-fuzzy
But the spacemacs-base distribution doesn't use the
spacemacs-completion layer by default.
helm-use-fuzzy is used in the helm layer.
When a helm buffer is opened, for example: `SPC SPC`
Then a warnings buffer opens:
>Error (use-package): helm/:config: Symbol’s value as variable is void: helm-use-fuzzy
solution:
Make sure that helm-use-fuzzy is bound and true.
problem:
The Magit w (apply patches) arguments are not remembered between sessions.
cause:
Magit reads the transient files:
history.el, levels.el, and values.el
before Spacemacs has redirected them to the .cache directory.
solution:
Redirect the files before magit reads them.
problem:
Pressing: u
in the spacemacs-base distribution, shows:
evil-undo: Symbol’s function definition is void: undo-tree-undo
cause:
The evil undo system is setup as: undo-tree
but undo-tree is loaded in the spacemacs-editing layer,
and the layer isn't used by default in the spacemacs-base distribution.
solution:
Set the evil undo system to undo-tree when the undo-tree package is used.
Now if undo-tree isn't setup, then:
- u uses the default Emacs undo command.
- C-r says: Customize ‘evil-undo-system’ for redo functionality.
problem:
Reloading the configuration: SPC f e R
after changing the variable: dotspacemacs-fullscreen-at-startup
to: t
changes Emacs into fullscreen mode.
solution:
Only check the variable and change to fullscreen mode on startup,
before Spacemacs has been initialized.
Fixes: Reloading config with fullscreen-at-startup t (in macOS) toggles fullscreen mode #13073
problem:
The Treemacs layer is unable to find python 3 in Windows.
cause:
The Treemacs layer looks for "python3", but the executable is called
"python.exe" in Windows.
solution:
Let Treemacs check for python 3 upstream, it has a better method for finding the
python 3 executable in Windows.
Similar to the keybindings added to the info layer in PR #14188, I here propose to add the same
keybindings to the epub layer. These J/K keybindings are currently undefined in the epub
layer. These keybindings are used in the Zathura document reader, they are very
convenient and I guess they feel very natural and are preferred over d/u by most people.
Standard LSP support auto-activates the server
if LSP layer is loaded. I have now added instructions
to explicitly disable this behaviour if someone wants
to work in LSP in one layer but only with CIDER in
clojure.
Spacemacs lacks a keybinding alternative to the most natural way of scrolling
Info pages (i.e. SPC) in vanilla emacs.
Anyway, this commit adds J/K to scroll most naturally through info pages.
Currently, in Info-mode, a keybinding for J is not defined while K is bound to
evil-lookup.
Issue #2828 already adresses the inconsistent experience, and in my opinion this
can and should be improved as navigating Info pages is a very crucial part of
using Emacs.
Personally I have bound J/K to scroll page up/down in buffers/pdf/djvu/doc-view,
which I inherited from using the zathura pdf reader, and I think this is a better
default than the default vim alternatives.
bind c-spc to ivy-call-and-recenter
this is the closest thing to helm follow mode in ivy world
unbin `g` key and map `U` for
for ivy-occur-mode-map and ivy-occur-grep-mode-map
* LaTeX: improved i18n support and documentation
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-build-engine`, a thin wrapper of
`TeX-engine`:
- For better support of non-european character set rendering, `xetex` is
chosen when it's found on PATH, and when eithe `chinese` or `japanese`
layer is enabled
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-enable-preview`:
- When non-nil, `auto-revert-mode` is added to `doc-view-mode-hook`
- Previously this is described in documentation but requires users to set it
manually
- Documentation:
- Added a section that lists are layer config variables
- Improved all documentation examples, s.t. they are valid elisp forms to be
evaluated directly
- Improved the section on backend:
- Emphsized that LSP layer is always preferred
- Provided information on installing the language server
- Added the default value for layer config variable, `latex-nofil-env`
* minor edits
- Updated CHANGELOG.develop
- Renamed `latex-enable-preview` to `latex-refresh-preview`
- Replaced a fuzzy intra-link in documentation with a proper link

Problem:
When the restart-emacs package is being updated.
The update packages restart message, still shows the (SPC q r) key binding even
though it doesn't work.
Cause:
The member function compared a string against a list of symbols.
A possible improvement:
Explain that the key binding won't work this time.
Before:
Emacs has to be restarted to actually install the new version of the packages (SPC q r).
After:
Emacs has to be restarted to actually install the new version of the packages
(SPC q r) won't work this time, because the restart-emacs package is being updated.
When ligatures are enabled globally emacs gets pined at 100% CPU. In #13967
there were some ligatures that were highlighted but enabling this only in
prog-mode so emacs dose not get pined at 100% when just enabling with
(unicode-fonts-enable-ligatures t). In #14178 it was highlighted that "\\" had
an issue in the `init.el` so this has been removed
- "//" Issues with doom mode line
- ".." "..." Issues with helm find file
- "--" Issues with magit
The eglot configuration for automatically starting a server instance when
opening a file is incorrect and thus tries to start the server twice which leads
to more problems down the line. Also the company-backend is not properly setup
so auto-completion does not work reliably when using lsp or eglot.
This fixes g (magit-refresh), in the hybrid editing style when the variable:
hybrid-style-enable-evilified-state
is: nil
Thanks marienz for reporting the issue and for suggesting to check if the
editing style supports evil navigation.

The newly added bindings had side effects for
magit. This was caused by which-keys replacement
working on bindings which are identical between
various modes.
To fix this I have changed the api to use the newly
added keymap based replacements which avoid these
issues.
As a side effect they are a ton faster as which
key does not have to compare all available bindings
everytime it opens its help window.
I have also fixed some more missing which-key
description in magit status buffer.
