This separates the colours to give to files with different filesystem types (directories, links, sockets) from files with different names or extensions (images, videos, archives).
I’m not 100% sure I’ve got the terms “kind” and “type” the right way round, but whatever.
This was done because colouring files based on their name is going to be handled differently and extensibly from colouring files based on what the filesystem thinks.
This commit adds many traits, all named ‘Colours’, to the code. Each one asks for a colour needed to render a cell: the number of links asks for colours for the number and the multi-link-file special case; the file size asks for number, unit, punctuation, and device ID colours, or it can do a scale with its own colours, however it wants.
This is a step towards LS_COLORS compatibility, believe it or not. If a text cell in a column doesn’t depend on Colours to render itself, then the source of the colours is open-ended.
I am glad to have not needed any test changes here.
Now, the Vagrant VM uses my patched version of git2-rs, which has a modified build.rs file in libgit2-sys, which blocks libhttp_parser from being linked. As you can see by the comment, I’m not a fan of the fix, but at least it works, right?
See #194, and also #255.
Every time I had to build exa, I copied the files manually and checked to make sure they all had the same name. There’s now a script that does all that stuff for me, so I don’t need to remember to do it anymore.
It also does some things that weren’t being done before, including stripping the binary and listing its linked dependencies to we can tell if something like libhttp_parser has slipped in there (see #194)
This was touched on in #209 where I got the docs wrong compared to the actual implementation, but after thinking about it, I’d like to switch it round. (The --sort=Name and --sort=name difference has also been switched.) See the big ol’ comment for my reasons.
Because this changes core functionality, it broke many, many tests. You can see that this doesn’t change the -star- tests because the shell, rather than exa, orders the globbed files.
I kept on forgetting which way round Sensitive and Insensitive went, so I named them after the effect they have.
The Debug impl was being used instead of the Display one. Also, remove the full stops from the ends of all the error messages because I’ve decided it looks weird.
The error in #178 was being hidden from output most of the time, and because exa isn’t a GUI program, there’s nowhere it can really dump log output like this. Now that users can opt in with the EXA_DEBUG variable, there is a place it can go.
Also stop the ERROR log level being printed by default.
I want to be very careful when doing the “--git and --tree don’t work together” one to not search for more Git repositories than I should. Being able to log when a repository is looked up and also switch that functionality on and off would help with that.
Just because the type that gets used right now is Copy and Clone doesn’t mean that when we pass mock ones in for tests they’ll be those two as well. So we have to go through and add &s everywhere.
No new features here, just some restructuring. Mode::GridDetails was nice and elegant with those two fields, but now there’s a grid-details-only option the elegance has gone out the window.
Yeah, I forgot what I was meant to be doing half-way through.
This also adds the row_threshold field, which disables the view unless there will be more than the given number of rows. Getting the row count required upgrading term_grid to a version that has that function added.
Previously the iterator went all the way through `2..`, and not only would that take a very long time, but at the end it wouldn’t even print anything. Now the grid-details view turns into a lines view when it’s hit its limit.
