build: ship "_core/*" as bytecode (built-into Nvim binary)

2025-12-30T06:44:24Z

Problem: We want to encourage implementing core features in Lua instead of C, but it's clumsy because: - Core Lua code (built into `nvim` so it is available even if VIMRUNTIME is missing/invalid) requires manually updating CMakeLists.txt, or stuffing it into `_editor.lua`. - Core Lua modules are not organized similar to C modules, `_editor.lua` is getting too big. Solution: - Introduce `_core/` where core Lua code can live. All Lua modules added there will automatically be included as bytecode in the `nvim` binary. - Move these core modules into `_core/*`: ``` _defaults.lua _editor.lua _options.lua _system.lua shared.lua ``` TODO: - Move `_extui/ => _core/ui2/`

fix(vim.system): env=nil passes env=nil to uv.spawn

2025-07-02T16:01:29Z

731e616a79 made it so passing `{env = nil, clear_env = true }` would pass `{env = {}}` to `vim.uv.spawn`. However this is not what `clear_env` is (arguably) supposed to do. If `env=nil` then that implies the uses wants `vim.uv.spawn()` to use the default environment. Adding `clear_env = true` simply prevents `NVIM` (the base environment) from being added. Fixes #34730

fix(vim.system): clear_env=true gives an invalid env to uv.spawn #33955

2025-06-25T22:15:19Z

Problem: In setup_env, some needed logic is bypassed when clear_env=true. Solution: Drop the early return in setup_env(). Co-authored-by: BirdeeHub

fix(vim.system): improve error message when cwd does not exist

2025-05-29T12:59:33Z

Problem: vim.uv.spawn will emit ENOENT for either when the cmd or cwd do not exist and does not tell you which. Solution: If an error occurs, check if cwd was supplied and included in the error message if it does not exist.
