Fix several problems with environment variable caching.
First, if a shell printed extra output besides the command output,
spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env included the extra output in .spacemacs.env.
For example, a login shell could print a motd, which would be erroneously
included in .spacemacs.env. To avoid this, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env
now redirects the command output to a temporary file and then reads the
file.
Second, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env sorted lines using the entire
"name=value" string for each line whereas the correct behavior is to sort
only on the "name" part. To fix this, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env now
uses sort-regexp-fields with an appropriate regexp to match the "name" part
and ignore the "value" part.
Third, although load-env-vars-set-env added all PATH settings in
.spacemacs.env to exec-path, it set PATH to the first PATH setting in
.spacemacs.env. Now load-env-vars-set-env sets PATH from exec-path so that
it will reflect that combined value.
Fourth, load-env-vars-set-env set exec-path and PATH without consideration
to the operating system's directory separator. Now load-env-vars-set-env
converts backslashes to forward slashes when adding path entries to
exec-path and converts forward slashes to backslashes when setting PATH on
platforms that use backslashes.
Fifth, load-env-vars-set-env now normalizes exec-path by deleting trailing
slashes from path entries, converting drive letters in path entries to
lower-case, and deleting duplicate path entries.
Sixth, Spacemacs no longer uses exec-path-from-shell, but a changelog entry
said that it did. This commit corrects the changelog entry, deletes
another outdated entry, and merges two entries that covered the same
functionality.
Finally, this commit corrects several typos and tries to improve wording in
several docstrings, messages, and comments.
* CHANGELOG.develop: Delete mention of exec-path-from-shell, which
Spacemacs no longer uses by default. Delete mention of
dotspacemacs-import-env-vars-from-shell and
dotspacemacs-import-env-vars-shell-file-name, which no longer exist.
Merge entries about synchronizing environment variables.
* core/core-env.el (spacemacs-ignored-environment-variables): Fix typos and
mention that the strings are regexps that are matched against the names of
environment variables.
(spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env): Use a temporary file rather than standard
output in order to avoid getting motd and other noise. Sort lines using
only environment variables' names, not their values. Better describe the
behavior with respect to spacemacs-ignored-environment-variables, duplicate
settings, and PATH. Try to make wording clearer.
(spacemacs/edit-env): Fix typos in the docstring.
* core/libs/load-env-vars.el (load-env-vars-set-env): Fix typos in the
docstring. Delete trailing slashes from path entries in exec-path, convert
drive letters to lower-case, delete duplicate path entries, and convert
backslashes to forward slashes when setting exec-path. Set PATH from
exec-path, converting forward slashes to backslashes on platforms that use
backslashes.
Sometimes it is useful to go directly to the last error message in the buffer.
This function recursively calls 'spacemacs/next-error until the last error is
reached.
The binding "SPC e l" is associated with it
There was a edge case with the declaration of the `lsp` layer in `layers.el`
files.
The `hy` layer depends on the `python` layer which in turn depends on the `lsp`
layer if and only if the `python-backend` layer variable is set to `lsp`.
When the `hy` layer was declared first then it declares the `python` layer
without its layer variables, thus the `lsp` layer was not declared because the
`python-backend` variable was not set.
The fix is to gather all the layer dependencies and resolve them only after all
the used layers have been declared.
* new function `configuration-layer/declare-layer-dependencies`
* replace all calls to `configuration-layer/declare-layer` by the new function
except for distribution layers (we declare layer dependencies right away in
distribution layers)
* modified function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-verify-archive
Add a `fatal-err` variable to handle critical erros that prevent the
verification to be attempted.
Use the function `epg-verify-file` instead of `epg-verify-string` which seems
to give more reliable results.
* modified function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-verify-archive
Gather errors along the verification steps and make a single call to
configuration-layer//stable-elpa-ask-to-continue at the end of the function.
Improve the scope of catched errors so now the users should be prompted when
GPG is not available on the system.
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-disable-repository
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-update-version-file
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-delete-temporary-files
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-ask-to-continue
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-verify-archive
* new function configuration-layer//stable-elpa-disable-repository
* rename function configuration-layer/stable-elpa-download-tarball to
configuration-layer//stable-elpa-download-tarball
* new function configuration-layer/stable-elpa-init
* make the function configuration-layer/stable-elpa-version interactive
configuration-layer/stable-elpa-init is called from init.el.
This function then calls the other new function in more clear fashion than the
previous complicated configuration-layer/stable-elpa-download-tarball
The users are now prompt if they want to install the stable ELPA repository when
the verification of the archive failed.
It is important that the stable elpa download message in the modeline is always
visible to the user as the donwload can take a while depending on the connection
speed.
* new variable configuration-layer-stable-elpa-archive
* add missing sub-directory "packages"
* update .lock file with above changes and bump to archive version 0.400
This reverts commit 5f308b0306.
This message is shown on startup:
spacemacs/startup-hook: Symbol’s value as variable is void: spacemacs-theme-custom-colors
and it broke several things.
Added spacemacs|add-toggle key binding documentation strings:
- To the toggle keys function docstring
- And to it's which-key mouseover minibuffer text
As winner-mode was moved from init.el to dump-init.el winner-mode
was not longer properly started for non-dumped emacs sessions.
Having winner-mode auto activate at startup did fix the issue
for non-dumping users but in turn broke the dumping process.
I have now moved the necessary winner-mode init to
spacemacs/setup-startup-hook which is only called
in the non-dumping case. To allow customizations I activate
winner-mode prior to loading user-init this will allow users
to deactivate winner-mode in the dotfile and fix ediff themselves
if this is wished for.
0ffdb353f9 changed the default config template to use a point size instead of a pixel size. Change the defvar declaration as well.
Commit modified by duianto:
Updated font size in doc/documentation.org
13 and 10.0 are visually the same, because:
- Integer specifies the pixel size.
- Floating-point specifies the point size.
Using a default floating-point size has two benefits:
- It's clear that the font size can be changed by floating-point values.
- There won't be an unpleasant surprise that `13` and `13.0` are different
sizes. For example to make the font slightly larger or smaller than `13`.
Then `10.0` has to be found first by trial and error.
* core/core-funcs.el (spacemacs/alternate-buffer): Instead of using
switch-to-buffer, use set-window-buffer-start-and-point, specifying the
previous window start position and point if known. Replace use of
cl-find-if with cl-find.
* CHANGELOG.develop: Add entry for change to spacemacs/alternate-buffer.
