To reduce redundancy, remove the maintenance hassle that version
constants would impose later on, and rely on built-in
facilities (featurep) more over global variables or doomisms, these
global constants have been deprecated in favor of Emacs "features":
- EMACS28+ -- replace with (> emacs-major-version 27)
- EMACS29+ -- replace with (> emacs-major-version 28)
- NATIVECOMP -- replace with (featurep 'native-compile)
- MODULES -- replace with (featurep 'dynamic-modules)
(These constants will be formally removed when v3 is released. The IS-*
constants are likely next, but I haven't decided on their substitutes
yet)
I also decided to follow native-compile's example and provide features
for Emacs' system features (since system-configuration-features' docs
outs itself as a poor method to detect features):
- dynamic-modules
- jansson
- native-compile -- this one already exists, but will instead be removed
if it's non-functional; i.e. (native-comp-available-p) returns nil.
These are now detectable using featurep, which is fast and built-in.
Some of our comments/docs can come off as disparaging or snide. They're
glimpses of unfiltered frustration or snarky rubber ducking gone too
far, something I can totally sympathize with, as a scatterbrained
tinkerer, unwittingly made responsible for a lot of work that isn't mine
because of Doom's position as a middleman. But now that Doom has a
veritable userbase, I'd like to hold it to a higher standard.
Light-hearted banter and aired grievances in our source code,
documentation, or community are fine if focused on the problem or the
personal/shared experiences of the community (things that offer value or
amusement to others), but it is never acceptable to attack people or
their efforts. Especially not the very people on whose shoulders Doom
stands.
I sincerely apologize if these have offended you.

A regression introduced in 1d8c61698b. Doom disables its
file-name-handler-alist optimization if in a daemon session or if debug
mode is active.
Fix: #6657
Amend: 1d8c61698b
If you've moved $EMACSDIR, comp-el-to-eln-filename will throw errors
about missing directories/files, rendering 'doom sync' ineffective and
forcing the user to delete $EMACSDIR and reinstall Doom.
See 6f1c0f7cc7 for part 1.
Turns out startup.elc likely exists on most Emacs installations (and,
since it's so integral to Emacs, it likely gets special treatment), so
it was a poor heuristic for this fix. Instead, a more variable target
would be calc-loaddefs.el.
On some systems, only calc-loaddefs.el.gz exists (in which case, we
should turn off the optimization). On others, calc-loaddefs.el
exists (so I'll assume it's safe to leave them on). I won't check for
calc-loaddefs.elc because it doesn't matter; calc.el explicitly
calls (load "calc-loaddefs.el") so it is never loaded.
Of course, you can sidestep the entire issue by building Emacs with
--without-compress-install, but it's not practical for users to
know/want to do that.
Amend: 6f1c0f7cc7
Some installs of Emacs do not come with byte-compiled versions of its
bundled elisp files, so when loading them, Emacs falls back to loading
its *.el.gz files. This would be fine if it were not for a startup
optimization Doom employs, where it sets file-name-handler-alist to
nil (and by doing so, robs Emacs of the ability to read compressed
elisp). This causes "symbol's value as variable is void: \213" errors at
startup.
With this commit, Doom now disables this optimization early if it
suspects this applies to your install. But time will tell if it's early
enough.

BREAKING CHANGE: Before, 'doom ci' would load
$GIT_WORKING_TREE/.github/ci.el, to give users/projects an opportunity
to provide project-local configuration for bin/doom (mainly for CI/CD).
Now, this ci.el file is no longer loaded and instead, *all* bin/doom
sessions will walk up the file tree and load the first .doomrc it finds.
This gives bin/doom users a more general place configure all of its
commands, and not just 'doom ci' commands.
Extras:
- Adds .doomrc to auto-mode-alist (so that it starts in
emacs-lisp-mode).
- Adds -o/--file option,
- If -o/--file is passed a dash, print codeowners to stdout,
- Adds --dryrun option,
- Will accept literal string entries in doom-make-codeowners as
standalone lines (useful for comments).
doom-enlist is now a deprecated alias for ensure-list, which is built
into Emacs 28.1+ and is its drop-in replacement. We've already
backported it for 27.x users in doom-lib (in 4bf4978).

In the future, should doom-core-dir or {doom-core-dir}/packages.el
change, 'doom upgrade' won't leave the repo in a broken state.
Unfortunately, this cannot retroactively prevent the issue; users will
experience this as soon as they update to b9933e6 or beyond, so users
will have to upgrade manually to overcome it:
cd ~/.emacs.d
git reset --hard 35a89bdfa6
git pull origin master
doom sync -u
Fix: #6598
Amend: b9933e6637
BREAKING CHANGE: This restructures the project in preparation for Doom
to be split into two repos. Users that have reconfigured Doom's CLI
stand a good chance of seeing breakage, especially if they've referred
to any core-* feature, e.g.
(after! core-cli-ci ...)
To fix it, simply s/core-/doom-/, i.e.
(after! doom-cli-ci ...)
What this commit specifically changes is:
- Renames all core features from core-* to doom-*
- Moves core/core-* -> lisp/doom-*
- Moves core/autoloads/* -> lisp/lib/*
- Moves core/templates -> templates/
Ref: #4273
