This file containes the change log for the next major version of Spacemacs.

Release 0.300.x

0.300.0

Breaking Changes

  • SPC b m now opens the *Messages* buffer. The old SPC b m to kill other buffers has been moved to SPC b C-d. Killing other buffers using a regular expression is now under SPC b C-D.
  • Scrolling key bindings are now under SPC N.
  • Key binding SPC e e is now for triggering a syntax check, the old action (explain error around point) has been moved to SPC e x.
  • Vagrant key bindings prefix is now SPC a V.
  • Regenerate tags are now under SPC m g C instead of SPC m g c.
  • All custom settings are now encapsulated in a function called dotspacemacs/emacs-custom-settings. While it should not break your custom settings you should check that they are all applied correctly once you reboot Emacs. Also you may have to clean up your dotfile if some custom settings are still present in your dotfile outside of the function dotspacemacs/emacs-custom-settings.
  • Company backends declaration has been revamped to be less verbose and easier to use. For more info see the section Add auto-completion in a layer of the README.org file of the auto-completion layer, also you can read commit message of commit 74fdbb6.
  • The function add-flycheck-hook has been renamed to enable-flycheck.

Hot new feature

  • Improve themes support. Support are now handled like regular packages. The list of themes now supports :location keyword like in layer list. More information in the Themes section of the documentation.
  • Introduction of spacemacs-purpose layer in charge of handling Emacs windows assignation for actions opening new buffers. This layer brings more consistency to windows creation by giving them a purpose (i.e. edit, help, etc…) (thanks to bmag)
  • New distribution spacemacs-docker used to build the official docker image for the Spacemacs container (thanks to JAremko)
  • Add support for ripgrep. To enable it add rg to dotspacemacs-search-tools. ripgrep key bindings are under SPC s r prefix. (Aron Griffis)
  • Improve support of custom settings file. All custom settings are now encapsulated in a function called dotspacemacs/emacs-custom-settings in the dotfile if the user does not specify a custom location for the custom settings file by modifying the variable custom-file. This allows Spacemacs to correctly loads custom settings at the end of the loading process, fixing unwanted overriden custom settings by layers.
  • Simplify declaration of company backends, see the section Add auto-completion in a layer of the README.org file of the auto-completion layer.

New layers

  • confluence in +web-services directory
  • coq in +lang directory
  • forth in +lang directory (Tim Jaeger)
  • jr in +lang directory (Philippe Baron)
  • restructuredtext in +lang directory (Wei-Wei Guo)
  • spacemacs-purpose in +spacemacs directory (thanks to bmag)
  • sphinx in +tools directory (Wei-Wei Guo)

Dotfile changes

  • New variable dotspacemacs-switch-to-buffer-prefers-purpose which controls where switch-to-buffer displays the buffer. If nil, switch-to-buffer displays the buffer in the current window even if another same-purpose window is available. If non nil, switch-to-buffer displays the buffer in a same-purpose window even if the buffer can be displayed in the current window. (thanks to bmag)
  • Can use the univeral prefix argument to open both the *scratch* buffer and the *Messages* buffer in another window (thanks to deb0ch)

Core changes

  • 39667d3 | * Don’t suggest `SPC q r` if restart-emacs is missing (Keshav Kini)

Distribution changes

  • Enable evil-search search module in evil state.
  • Partially tame exec-path-from-shell (Steven Allen):
    • Make it possible to exclude the package (fix the go and rust layers).
    • Import variables all at once (avoid spawning multiple login shells).
    • Import variables early (during the “pre” package loading stage).
    • Centralize the platform check by using a package toggle in the `spacemacs-base`.
    • Avoid importing already defined variables (except `PATH`/`MANPATH`).
  • Move all scrolling key bindings from SPC n to SPC N (Somelauw)
  • Overhaul the scroll transient state on SPC N prefix (Somelauw)

Layer changes

GitHub

  • Add new package magithub
  • Remove package github-browse-file which has been replaced by browse-at-remote in version-control layer

Git

  • install magit-svn by default and activate with git-enable-magit-svn-plugin

Gtags

  • Move key binding SPC m g c to SPC m g C (regenerate tags)

Java

  • Add support for multiple backends. Supported backends are: megahnada, eclim and ensime. The default backend is meghanada.
  • SPC m e e is now to fix error around point. Use SPC e prefix to navigate between errorsl

Org

  • Add package org-journal (Nick Anderson)
  • Move clock related key bindings to SPC a o k
  • Add key bindings SPC a o k i to clock in last and SPC a o k j to jump to current clock (thanks to darkfeline)
  • Make org-projectile integration compatible with the newest version.

Scala

  • Move ensime to the java layer (Tor Hedin Bronner)

Syntax-checking

  • Key binding SPC e e is now for triggering a syntax check, the old action (explain error around point) has been moved to SPC e x.

Vagrant

  • Move key bindings prefix to SPC a V (deb0ch)

Version-control

  • Add package browse-at-remote which replaces github-browse-file (thanks JAremko)

C-C++

  • Add possible value no-completion to c-c++-enable-rtags-support flag. This adds the option to opt-out of company-rtags while enabling Rtags.
