Why it was removed in the first place: hlissner/doom-emacs#1974
Why it's being restored: seems this causes too much confusion. Folks ask
why projectile doesn't recognize their projects. It's too much of
maintenance hassle. We'll deal with the breaking changes project.el will
introduce when we cross that bridge.
Closes#3074
For prompts like these
> In repository "org-roam", remote "origin" has URL
"https://github.com/jethrokuan/org-roam.git"
but recipe specifies a URL of
"https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam.git"
1) Abort
2) Rename remote "origin" to "origin-1", re-create "origin" with correct URL, and fetch
3) Rename remote "origin" manually, re-create it with correct URL, and fetch (Recommended)
4) Delete remote "origin", re-create it with correct URL, and fetch
5) Delete remote "origin", re-create it with manually set URL, and fetch
How to proceed? (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
4 should be recommended, not 3.
When you're being prompted, these regexps control what option is
highlighted as the recommended option, and two of them were definitely
wrong, and another two *might've* been wrong.
When expanding:
(quiet! ...)
You'd expect (simplified for explanation):
(letf! ((standard-output ...)
((symbol-function #'message) ...)
((symbol-function #'load-file) ...)
((symbol-function #'write-region) ...))
...)
But instead get:
(letf! ((standard-output ...))
;; where'd the other binds go?
...)
This was due to data-loss caused by nreverse's destructive mutation of
the given bindings.
Also: silences byte-compiler complaining about unused bindings.
The rewrite for Doom's CLI is taking a while, so I've backported a few
important changes in order to ease the transition and fix a couple bugs
sooner.
Fixes#2802, #2737, #2386
The big highlights are:
- Fix#2802: We now update recipe repos *before* updating/installing any
new packages. No more "Could not find package X in recipe repositories".
- Fix#2737: An edge case where straight couldn't reach a pinned
commit (particularly with agda).
- Doom is now smarter about what option it recommends when straight
prompts you to make a choice.
- Introduces a new init path for Doom. The old way:
- Launch in "minimal" CLI mode in non-interactive sessions
- Launch a "full" interactive mode otherwise.
The new way
- Launch in "minimal" CLI mode *only* for bin/doom
- Launch is a simple mode for non-interactive sessions that still need
access to your interactive config (like async org export/babel).
- Launch a "full" interactive mode otherwise.
This should fix compatibility issues with plugins that use the
async.el library or spawn child Emacs processes to fake
parallelization (like org's async export and babel functionality).
- Your private init.el is now loaded more reliably when running any
bin/doom command. This gives you an opportunity to configure its
settings.
- Added doom-first-{input,buffer,file}-hook hooks, which we use to queue
deferred activation of a number of packages. Users can remove these
modes from these hooks; altogether preventing them from loading,
rather than waiting for them to load to then disable them,
e.g. (after! smartparens (smartparens-global-mode -1)) -> (remove-hook
'doom-first-buffer #'smartparens-global-mode)
Hooks added to doom-first-*-hook variables will be removed once they
run.
This should also indirectly fix#2386, by preventing interactive modes
from running in non-interactive session.
- Added `doom/bump-*` commands to make bumping modules and packages
easier, and `doom/bumpify-*` commands for converting package!
statements into user/repo@sha1hash format for bump commits.
- straight.el is now commit-pinned, like all other packages. We also
more reliably install straight.el by cloning it ourselves, rather than
relying on its bootstrap.el.
This should prevent infinite "straight has diverged from master"
prompts whenever we change branches (though, you might have to put up
with it one more after this update -- see #2937 for workaround).
All the other minor changes:
- Moved core/autoload/cli.el to core/autoload/process.el
- The package manager will log attempts to check out pinned commits
- If package state is incomplete while rebuilding packages, emit a
simpler error message instead of an obscure one!
- Added -u switch to 'doom sync' to make it run 'doom update' afterwards
- Added -p switch to 'doom sync' to make it run 'doom purge' afterwards
- Replace doom-modules function with doom-modules-list
- The `with-plist!` macro was removed, since `cl-destructuring-bind`
already serves that purpose well enough.
- core/autoload/packages.el was moved into core-packages.el
- bin/doom will no longer die if DOOMDIR or DOOMLOCALDIR don't have a
trailing slash
- Introduces doom-debug-variables; a list of variables to toggle on
doom/toggle-debug-mode.
- The sandbox has been updated to reflect the above changes, also:
1. Child instances will no longer inherit the process environment of
the host instance,
2. It will no longer produce an auto-save-list directory in ~/.emacs.d
With this fix we're forced to rebind all C-i keybinds plugins bind. This
is too much of a maintenance nightmare. This "fix" doesn't really fix
anything really, so users can reinstate it themselves, if they prefer
it.
Relevant to #3090
Many packages recommend setting up their packages with something like:
(use-package PACKAGE
:ensure t
...)
New users will frequently copy these into their config, then experience
long startup times or a cryptic error about the package failing to
install.
This is because `:ensure t`, by default, uses package.el (Emacs'
built-in package manager) to check for and install packages, but Doom
doesn't use package.el, it uses straight.el. So we disable `:ensure`.
On the other hand, if the user has loaded `package` by hand, then we
should assume that they know what they're doing, and restore the old
behavior.
