Improve the accuracy of `xref-find-definitions` by inferring the
likely namespace of the sought identifier from its context.
This reduces the number of irrelevant search hits when it is clear
what kind of identifier is being looked for (such as showing a
variable when the user looks for a function).
Co-written with Dmitry Gutov.
* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (elisp--xref-list-index)
(elisp--xref-infer-namespace, xref-backend-identifier-at-point): New.
(xref-backend-definitions): Use the buffer position for inferring.
(elisp--xref-find-definitions): Use the inferred namespace.
(xref-backend-apropos): Adapt call.
* test/lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode-tests.el (elisp-mode-test--with-buffer)
(elisp-mode-with-buffer, elisp-mode-infer-namespace): New tests.
Replace uses of a variable aliasing another variable with that aliased
variable, to allow for variable removal when possible. This also
enables opportunities for other optimisations. Example:
(let ((y x)) (f y)) => (f x)
The optimisation is only performed if both aliased and aliasing
variables are lexically bound. Shadowing bindings are α-renamed when
necessary for correctness. Example:
(let* ((b a) (a EXPR)) (f a b))
=> (let* ((a{new} EXPR)) (f a{new} a))
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-opt.el (byte-optimize--aliased-vars): New.
(byte-optimize-form-code-walker): Cancel aliasing upon mutation.
(byte-optimize--rename-var-body, byte-optimize--rename-var): New.
(byte-optimize-let-form): Add the optimisation.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp-tests.el (bytecomp-tests--test-cases):
Add relevant test cases.
* lisp/net/tramp-gvfs.el (tramp-gvfs-handle-make-directory): Simplify.
* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-methods) <telnet, nc>: Don't use
"%n" marker.
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el (tramp-test13-make-directory): Merge with
`tramp-test-make-directory-helper' and
`tramp-test13-make-directory-with-file-modes'.
(tramp-test44-asynchronous-requests): Use always the same
operation in timer.
* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el:
* lisp/net/tramp-adb.el:
* lisp/net/tramp-sudoedit.el:
* lisp/net/tramp-gvfs.el: Add support for default file modes to
relevant Tramp back ends for make-directory. (Closes: Bug#50410)
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el (tramp-test13-make-directory-with-file-modes):
New test.
* etc/NEWS: Note this enhancement.
Thanks to Michael Albinus for helping improve this patch.
* lisp/progmodes/ruby-mode.el (ruby-smie-rules): Align with the
first sibling on the previous line instead of the last (bug#32496).
That is, before it used to be
one.two.three
.four
and now it is
one.two.three
.four
Following advice by Mattias Engdegård, most uses of rx-to-string
were eliminated, and rx sequences used instead to define Perl
grammar components.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el: (cperl-block-declaration-p): New
function, replaces regexp literals.
(cperl-imenu--function-name-regexp-perl): Deleted, use rx
sequences to find imenu entries instead.
(cperl-indent-line): Use rx components instead of regexp literals.
(cperl-sniff-for-indent): use `cperl-block-declaration-p' to
increase accuracy, use rx sequence for labels to replace
inaccurate regexp literals.
(cperl-block-p): Replace inline comment by docstring. Use
`cperl-block-declaration-p'.
(cperl-after-block-p): Use `cperl-block-declaration-p'.
(cperl-after-block-and-statement-beg): Replace inline comment by
docstring.
(cperl-imenu-package-keywords), (cperl-imenu-sub-keywords),
(cperl-imenu-pod-keywords) : New variables to sort imenu
entries into categories.
(cperl-imenu--create-perl-index): Use rx sequences to collect
imenu entries.
(cperl-init-faces): Use rx components instead of regexp literals
for labels.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el: Test rx sequences
instead of regexp strings
* lisp/net/browse-url.el (browse-url-url-encode-chars): Document
what the argument really is, and simplify the implementation
(bug#50435).
(browse-url-encode-url): Encode spaces.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-opt.el
(byte-optimize-assq): New.
(byte-optimize-member, byte-optimize-assoc, byte-optimize-memq):
When the list argument is constant nil, the result is always nil.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp-tests.el (bytecomp-tests--test-cases):
Add test cases.
* lisp/progmodes/project.el (project--files-in-directory):
Pass "." as the DIR argument to 'find' because otherwise the ignore
expression can match the project root directory name, which we don't
want to happen (bug#50240). Fixup the resulting file names at the end
with concatenation.
Originally I thought it could lead to worse performance, but the
results show equal or slightly better timings.
* lisp/progmodes/xref.el (xref-matches-in-directory):
Apply a similar fix.
(xref--find-ignores-arguments): Use file-name-as-directory, so
that when passed "." replace-match still had the expected effect.
* test/lisp/progmodes/project-tests.el (project-ignores-bug-50240):
New test.
* test/lisp/progmodes/xref-tests.el
(xref-matches-in-directory-filters-with-ignores): New test.
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el
(tramp--test--deftest-direct-async-process): Fix macro declaration.
(tramp-test29-start-file-process, tramp-test30-make-process):
Do not run connection type test for direct async processes.
* doc/emacs/calendar.texi: Document the change.
* lisp/calendar/diary-lib.el (diary-offset):
* test/lisp/calendar/icalendar-tests.el: Add a test (bug#50195).
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib-tests.el (cl-test-caaar)
(cl-test-caadr): Move tests using a cl-lib alias from here...
* test/lisp/subr-tests.el (subr-test-caaar, subr-test-caadr): ...to
here. The functions under test are in subr.el.
* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-unwind-to-safe): Replace
(and extend) inline comment by a docstring. Handle edge cases when
inserting text with elisp (related to Bug#28962).
(cperl-process-here-doc): Add syntax-type `here-doc-start'.
(cperl-find-pods-heres): Make sure that the results of this
function are immediately visible.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-test-bug-14343):
Add test cases for "empty" here-documents and inserting at the
edges of a here-document.
* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl--tests-heredoc-face):
New const.
(cperl-test-heredocs, cperl-test-bug-14343): Use it.
(cperl-test-identify-no-heredoc): Remove left-over message.
