Dan Aloni 36762a00a8 signs: support multiple columns #9295
closes #990
closes #9295

- Support for multiple auto-adjusted sign columns.
  With this change, having more than one sign on a line, and with the
  'auto' setting on 'signcolumn', extra columns will shown automatically
  to accomodate all the existing signs.

  For example, suppose we have this view:

   5147             }
   5148
   5149             return sign->typenr;
   5150         }
   5151     }
   5152     return 0;
   5153 }
   5154

  We have GitGutter installed, so it tells us about modified lines that
  are not commmited. So let's change line 5152:

     5147             }
     5148
     5149             return sign->typenr;
     5150         }
     5151     }
   ~ 5152     return 0;
     5153 }
     5154

  Now we add a mark over line 5152 using 'ma' in normal mode:

      5147             }
      5148
      5149             return sign->typenr;
      5150         }
      5151     }
  a ~ 5152     return 0;
      5153 }
      5154

  Previously, Vim/Nvim would have picked only one of the signs,
  because there was no support for having multiple signs in a line.

- Remove signs from deleted lines.
  Suppose we have highlights on a group of lines and we delete them:

   +     6 use std::ops::Deref;
   --+   7 use std::borrow::Cow;
   --+   8 use std::io::{Cursor};
         9 use proc_macro2::TokenStream;
        10 use syn::export::ToTokens;
   --+  11 use std::io::Write;
   >>   12 use std::ops::Deref;

  Without this change, these signs will momentarily accumulate in
  the sign column until the plugins wake up to refresh them.

  + --+ --+ --+ >>  6

  Discussion: It may be better to extend the API a bit and allow this
  to happen for only certain types of signs. For example, VIM marks
  and vim-gitgutter removal signs may want to be presreved, unlike
  line additions and linter highlights.

- 'signcolumn': support 'auto:NUM' and 'yes:NUM' settings
- sort signs according to id, from lowest to highest. If you have
  git-gutter, vim-signature, and ALE, it would appear in this order:
  git-gutter - vim-signature - ALE.
- recalculate size before screen update
- If no space for all signs, prefer the higher ids (while keeping the
  rendering order from low to high).
- Prevent duplicate signs. Duplicate signs were invisible to the user,
  before using our extended non-standard signcolumn settings.
- multi signcols: fix bug related to wrapped lines.
  In wrapped lines, the wrapped parts of a line did not include the extra
  columns if they existed. The result was a misdrawing of the wrapped
  parts. Fix the issue by:
    1. initializing the signcol counter to 0 when we are on a wrap boundary
    2. allowing for the draw of spaces in that case.

Features

See :help nvim-features for the full list!

Install from package

Pre-built packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux are found on the Releases page.

Managed packages are in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch Linux, Gentoo, and more!

Install from source

The build is CMake-based, but a Makefile is provided as a convenience.

make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
sudo make install

To install to a non-default location:

make CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/full/path/
make install

To skip bundled (third-party/*) dependencies:

  1. Install the dependencies using a package manager.
    sudo apt install gperf luajit luarocks libuv1-dev libluajit-5.1-dev libunibilium-dev libmsgpack-dev libtermkey-dev libvterm-dev
    sudo luarocks build mpack
    sudo luarocks build lpeg
    sudo luarocks build inspect
    
  2. Build with USE_BUNDLED=OFF:
    make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo USE_BUNDLED=OFF
    sudo make install
    

To inspect the build, these CMake features are useful:

  • cmake --build build --target help lists all build targets.
  • build/CMakeCache.txt (or cmake -LAH build/) contains the resolved values of all CMake variables.
  • build/compile_commands.json shows the full compiler invocations for each translation unit.

See the Building Neovim wiki page for details.
