This file containes the change log for the next major version of Spacemacs.

* Release 0.200.x
** 0.200.0 (September 2016)
*** IMPORTANT: Breaking changes
- The support for Emacs 24.3 has been dropped, Spacemacs needs at least Emacs
  24.4 to work correctly.
- =extensions= are deprecated as announced in previous releases, if you still
  have =extensions= directories you must rename them to =local= and move
  the contents of the =extensions.el= files to the =packages.el= files adding
  the keyword =:location local= to them in the package list. Refer to other
  layers for examples (for instance the =python= layer)
- =<package>-excluded-packages= variables are now deprecated as announced is
  previous releases, you must now  use the keyword =:excluded t= of the package
  list, see the =vim-empty-lines= layer for example.
- Key binding ~SPC :~ acting as M-x as been replaced by ~SPC SPC~.
  If you want to revert to the old ~SPC :~ key binding set the new
  variable =dotspacemacs-emacs-command-key= to ":".
- Key binding ~SPC f e h~ is now ~SPC h SPC~
- Key bindings to delete things are now more consistent and use the ~d~ key.
  We had to move ~SPC w c~ and ~SPC w C~ to ~SPC w d~ and ~SPC w D~.
- ~SPC j~ prefix has been modified to include =jump= commands:
  - =avy= commands are now behind the prefix ~SPC j~ for =jump=:
    - ~SPC j j~ to jump to a character in the buffer (works as an evil motion)
    - ~SPC j l~ to jump to a line with avy (works as an evil motion)
    - ~SPC j w~ to jump to a word in the current buffer (works as an evil motion)
  - the following key bindings have been moved:
    - ~SPC j j~ to split a line has been moved to ~SPC j n~
    - ~SPC j h~ and ~SPC j l~ have been moved to ~SPC j 0~ and ~SPC j $~
      respectively.
    - ~SPC J~ to split a string or sexp has been moved to ~SPC j s~
- All helm related key bindings under ~SPC h~ that are not about help have
  been moved to different key bindings:
  - ~SPC h b~ for =helm-filetered-bookmarks~is now ~SPC f b~
  - ~SPC h l~ for =helm-resume= is now ~SPC r l~
  - ~SPC h L~ for =helm-locate-library= is now ~SPC f e l~
- Refactor ~SPC w~ and ~SPC b~ regarding deletion to clean redundent actions
  and bring more consistency between the two prefixes (see
  =Distribution layer changes= section in change log for more information)
- Git key bindings under ~SPC g~ have been reorganised to free up some keys
  amd capitalize on =Magit= dipatch menu to keep things consistent (see
  =git= section in change log for more information)
- Spacemacs layouts scope has been changed, now ~SPC b b~ lists the buffers of
  the current layout, use ~SPC B b~ to list all the opened buffers.
- =org-indent= is now turned off by default
- Micro states are now called transient states, the macro
  =spacemacs|define-micro-state= is deprecated, it is replaced by the new
  =hydra= powered macro =spacemacs|define-transient-state=.
- Spacemacs layouts and workspaces transient states now exit when a layout or
  workspace is selected, use ~C-0~ ... ~C-9~ to switch to a layout and keep
  the transient state open.
- Remove support for =all= value for =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers=
  variable. To install all the packages supported by Spacemacs there is a new
  variable =dotspacemacs-install-packages=.
- Remove layer variable  =colors-enable-rainbow-identifiers= in =colors= layer,
  You have to replace it by =colors-colorize-identifiers 'all=.
- The =bépo= layer has been replaced by the new layer =keyboard-layout=, see the
  readme of the layer for more info.
*** Hot new features
- Refactor of the layer system which should improve startup time by 20~25%.
- New option to lazy install layers based on =auto-mode-alist= (similar to
  =Prelude= lazy install of packages but for layers) via the variable
  =dotspacemacs-enable-lazy-installation=.
- Add support for Ivy via the new layer =ivy=, when used it replaces =helm=
  (thanks to justbur, d12frosted, lszekeres, nixmaniack, ralesi, TheBB,
  zilongshanren)
- Add support for different keyboard layouts via the new layer
  =keyboard-layout=, currently supported layouts are =bépo= and =dvorak=
  (thanks to StreakyCobra)
- New transient states powered by =Hydra=, they replace the deprecated
  micro states (thanks to justbur)
- New =jump to definition= abstraction to handle multiple jump backends like
  tags, dumb-jump etc... (thanks to TheBB)
- Global access to all available REPLs with ~SPC a '~ and `SPC m '~ (thanks to
  AlejandroCatalina and TheBB)
- New debugging tools:
  - press ~SPC q d~ to restart Emacs in debug mode with command line parameter
  =--debug-init=
  - press ~SPC q D~ to restart Emacs without Spacemacs but with a list of
  selected packages to load.
  (thanks to StreakyCobra)
- New way to install all the supported packages by Spacemacs via the variable
  =dotspacemacs-install-packages=
- Improved =emacs= and =hybrid= editing styles to fix configuration
  inconsistencies
- the =spacemacs= layer has been split into multiple layers to allow better
  modularity (these layers are in =+spacemacs= sub-directory):
  - spacemacs-completion
  - spacemacs-editing
  - spacemacs-editing-visual
  - spacemacs-evil
  - spacemacs-language

*** Dotfile changes
**** Changes for variable values and keywords
- Add new keyword =:packages= for the list of layers in variable
  =dotspacemacs-configuration-layer=, =:packages= allow to select or exclude
  packages from a layer.
- The value of =dotspacemacs-editing-style= can now be a list containing the
  keyword =:variables= (similar to =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers=) to
  define addtional variables to modify the behavior of the editing syle. This
  new keyword is useful for =hybrid= style which supports these variables:
  - =hybrid-mode-enable-evilified-state=, if non nil then buffer are evilified,
  - =hybrid-mode-enable-hjkl-bindings=, if non nil navigation on ~hjkl~ keys is
    enabled (for instance in =helm= buffers),
  - =hybrid-mode-default-state=, the default state when opening a new buffer,
    by default it is =normal=.
- The value of =dotspacemacs-default-font= can now be a list (thanks to TheBB)

  - agenda
  - todos
  (thanks to tonyday567)

  (thanks to ralesi)
**** New variables
- New variable =dotspacemacs-enable-lazy-installation= to install a layer only
  when a file with a supported type by this layer is opened. Possible values
  are =all=, =unused= and =nil=:
  - =unused= will lazy install only unused layers
  - =all= will lazy install any layer that support lazy installation even the
    used layers
  - =nil= disable the lazy installation feature
  Default value is =unused=
- New variable =dotspacemacs-frozen-packages=. It is a list of packages, these
  packages cannot be updated or rollbacked.
- New variable =dotspacemacs-install-packages= which replaces the variable
  =dotspacemacs-delete-orphan-packages=. This new variable defines the behavior
  of Spacemacs for installed packages.
  Possible values are =used-only=, =used-but-keep-unused= and =all=.
  - =used-only= installs only explicitly used packages and uninstall any
  unused packages as well as their unused dependencies.
  - =used-but-keep-unused= installs only the used packages but won't uninstall
  them if they become unused.
  - =all= installs *all* packages supported by Spacemacs and never uninstall
  them.
  Default value is =used-only=.
- New variable =dotspacemacs-emacs-command-key= which replaces the variable
  =dotspacemacs-command-key=. This variable represents the key to press after
  the leader key to execute =M-x=. Default value is ~SPC~.
- New variable =dotspacemacs-folding-method= to allow choosing between
  different code folding methods. Currently supported are =evil= and =origami=.
  Default value is =evil=. (thansk to ralesi)

  the behavior of the =g= flag in =:subsitute= ex-command is inverted.
  Default value is nil (thanks to fbergroth)
- New variable =dotspacemacs-smart-closing-parenthesis=. If non-nil pressing
  the closing parenthesis ~)~ key in insert mode passes over any automatically
  added closing parenthesis, bracket, quote, etc...
  This can be temporary disabled by pressing ~C-q~ before ~)~
  (thanks to StreakyCobra)
- New variable =dotspacemacs-retain-visual-mode-on-shift=, If non nil ~>~ is
  remapped to ~>gv~ and ~<~ is remapped to ~<gv~ in visual mode, default
  value is nil to keep Vim defaults (thanks to Stebalien)
- New variable =dotspacemacs-visual-line-move-text=, if non-nil, ~J~ and ~K~
  move lines up and down when in visual mode. Default value is nil.
  (thanks to Stebalien)

  helm. If set to =always=, force fuzzy matching in all non-asynchronous
  sources. If set to =source=, preserve individual source settings. Else,
  disable fuzzy matching in all sources. Default value is =always=
  (thanks to quicknir)
- New variable =dotspacemacs-elpa-subdirectory=. Can be =nil= or a form that
  evaluates to a package directory. For example, to use different package
  directories for different Emacs versions, set this to =emacs-version=

  (thanks to StreakyCobra)
- New key binding ~SPC b N~ and evil ex-command =:enew= to open a new empty
  buffer (thanks to balajisivaraman)
- New key binding ~SPC f h~ to open a binary file with ~hexl~ (thanks to TheBB)

  - ~SPC B b~ to list all the buffers in all layouts
  (thanks to CestDiego)
- Refactor ~SPC w~ and ~SPC b~ regarding deletion to clean redundent actions
  and bring more consistency between the two prefixes:
  - ~SPC b k~ has been removed since the functionality is
    available directly in Helm by selecting the kill buffer action
  - ~SPC b m~ (buffer move) has been removed because the functionality
    is available via ~SPC w~ with ~SPC w h/j/k/l~, ~SPC w H/J/K/L~ and
    ~SPC w M~.
  - ~SPC b K~ (kill other buffers) is now ~SPC b m~ to map with ~SPC w m~
    (kill other window or maximize). Using the universal prefix argument
    ~SPC u SPC b m~ will also kill the windows.
  - ~SPC b C-k~ (kill buffer matching regexp) is now simply on ~SPC b k~
  - ~SPC b D~ now kills a buffer using =ace-window=.
  - ~SPC b d~ and ~SPC b D~ now accept an universal prefix argument to
    also delete the window. So ~SPC u SPC b d~ and ~SPC u SPC b D~ delete
    the buffer and the window.
- Command prefix ~SPC j~ is now also for =jumping=, introduced key bindings are:
  - ~SPC j 0~ to go to the beginning of line (and set a mark at the previous
    location in the line)
  - ~SPC j $~ to go to the end of line (and set a mark at the previous location
    in the line)
  - ~SPC j b~ to undo a jump (go back to previous location)
  - ~SPC j d~ to jump to a listing of the current directory
  - ~SPC j D~ to jump to a listing of the current directory (other window)

  - ~SPC j j~ to jump to a character in the buffer (works as an evil motion)
  - ~SPC j J~ to jump to a suite of two characters in the buffer
    (works as an evil motion)
  - ~SPC j I~ to jump to a definition in any buffer (imenu)
  - ~SPC j k~ to jump to next line and indent it using auto-indent rules
  - ~SPC j l~ to jump to a line with avy (works as an evil motion)
  - ~SPC j n~ to split the current line at point, insert a new line and
     auto-indent
  - ~SPC j s~ to split a quoted string or s-expression in place
  - ~SPC j S~ to split a quoted string or s-expression, insert a new line and
    auto-indent
  - ~SPC j u~ to jump to a URL in the current buffer
  - ~SPC j v~ to jump to the definition/declaration of the variable around point

  - remove recurrent version check every 6 hours, i.e. the check happens only
    at startup
  - rate limit the checks to once per day
  - change default value of variable =dotspacemacs-check-for-update= to =nil=
  - make function =spacemacs/check-for-new-version= interactive so checking
    for a new version can be done on demand.
