Uses the most basic, uncustomized shell to a) prevent interference
caused by slow shell configs and b) speed up project text searches. This
comes at the cost of isolating these programs from envvars that the user
may have set in their shell configs in order to change
ag/rg/pt/git-grep/grep's behavior.
If this bothers you, change +ivy-file-search-shell to your shell (or
to the value of `shell-file-name`).
Possibly relevant to an issue mentioned in #1260
`ivy-completion-in-region' struggles with completing certain
+evil-ex-specific constructs, like globs (:e prefix*.el) or vim filename
modifiers (:e %:p:h).
The default setting of 200 is too low for common use-cases like
`describe-function`, `describe-variable` or `counsel-projectile`.
This has a performance impact, but it's barely noticeable on a fast
machine. If performance is not acceptable, set `ivy-flx-limit` lower or
consider disabling the `+fuzzy` feature entirely.
This provides an alternative backend for filtering and sorting ivy
searches. Uses prescient instead of flx for fuzzy completion when both
+prescient and +fuzzy are selected.
:feature was a "catch-all" category. Many of its modules fit better in
other categories, so they've been moved:
- feature/debugger -> tools/debugger
- feature/evil -> editor/evil
- feature/eval -> tools/eval
- feature/lookup -> tools/lookup
- feature/snippets -> editor/snippets
- feature/file-templates -> editor/file-templates
- feature/workspaces -> ui/workspaces
More potential changes in the future:
- A new :term category for terminal emulation modules (eshell, term and
vterm).
- A new :os category for modules dedicated to os-specific functionality.
The :tools macos module would fit here, but so would modules for nixos
and arch.
- A new :services category for web-service integration, like wakatime,
twitter, elfeed, gist and pastebin services.
- Highlights remote/tramp files with ivy-remote face
- Highlights non-file-visiting buffers with ivy-subdir face
- Highlight modified buffers with ivy-modified-buffer face
- Disable built-in ivy-switch-buffer transformer (redundant with our own
transformer)
- Mode icons will now fall back to fundamental-mode icon, rather than
the blank file icon (whose irregular width ruins ivy's formatting)
- Fixes project-based buffer name highlighting in switch-to-buffer
- Fixes a void-variable ivy-rich--ivy-switch-buffer-transformer error
Relevant to #1159
Let-binding `ivy-use-virtual-buffers` is neater and more robust than the
previous solution using some copy-pasta. Calling the unwind routine
will become important once counsel is patched to restore buffer-list.
