2026-04-22feat(:restart): v:starttime, v:exitreason #39282Justin M. Keyes1
Problem: - The `ZR` feature makes it more obvious that we need some sort of flag so that an `ExitPre` / `QuitPre` / `VimLeave` handler can handle restarts differently than a normal exit. For example, it's common that users want `:mksession` on restart, but perhaps not on a normal exit. - Nvim has no way to report its "uptime". Solution: - Introduce `v:starttime` - Introduce `v:exitreason`

2026-02-25feat(startup): provide v:argf for file arguments #35889Sanzhar Kuandyk1
Problem: - `:args` and `argv()` can change after startup. - `v:arg` includes options/commands, not just files. - Plugins (e.g. Oil) may rewrite directory args. Solution: - New read-only var `v:argf`: snapshot of file/dir args at startup. - Unaffected by `:args` or plugins. - Unlike `v:argv`, excludes options/commands. - Paths are resolved to absolute paths when possible Example: nvim file1.txt dir1 file2.txt :echo v:argf " ['/home/user/project/file1.txt', '/home/user/project/dir1', '/home/user/project/file2.txt']

2025-11-02vim-patch:9.1.1892: Not possible to know once Vim is done with sourcing ↵zeertzjq1
vimrc (#36429) Problem: A plugin does not know when startup scripts were already triggered. This is useful to determine if a function is called inside vimrc or after (like when sourcing 'plugin/' files). Solution: Add the v:vim_did_init variable (Evgeni Chasnovski) closes: vim/vim#18668 https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/294bce21ee837aab209a1008d0efc3e305cf188f Nvim has two more steps between sourcing startup scripts and loading plugins. Set this variable after these two steps. Co-authored-by: Evgeni Chasnovski <evgeni.chasnovski@gmail.com>

2025-07-20vim-patch:8.1.1526: no numerical value for the patchlevelJan Edmund Lazo1
Problem: No numerical value for the patchlevel. Solution: Add v:versionlong. https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/37df9a4401f6737d6216306ea77a7e080c942aea Restore "highest_patch()" solely for "v:versionlong". Copy/paste Test_vvar_scriptversion2() from patch 9.1.1540. It works without ":scriptversion 2". In general, if Vim's test works with ":scriptversion 1", just port it for additional coverage. --- vim-patch:8.1.1565: MS-Windows: no sound support Problem: MS-Windows: no sound support. Solution: Add sound support for MS-Windows. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, Ken Takata, closes vim/vim#4522) https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/9b283523f2f75b45feef902b8713808e883d9c19 ---- "sound" feature is N/A now but this updates "v:versionlong" docs.

2024-05-24feat(complete): specify reason for CompleteDoneFamiu Haque1
Problem: `CompleteDone` currently does not specify the reason for why completion was done, which is problematic for completion plugins as they cannot know whether the event was triggered due to the completion being canceled, accepted, or for some other reason. Solution: Add a `reason` key to `v:event`, which is set by `CompleteDone` to indicate why completion ended.
