 #+title: consult.el - Changelog
 #+author: Daniel Mendler
 #+language: en
 
 * Version 0.34 (2023-04-21)
 
 - Bugfixes.
 - =consult-org-heading=: Support tag inheritance.
 - Use pure =consult--fast-abbreviate-file-name= function to abbreviate file names
   in =consult-buffer= and =consult-recent-file=. This ensures that abbreviation does
   not access the file system (or worse remote hosts via Tramp) and is always
   fast. The downside is that some paths may not get abbreviated.
 - Introduce buffer sources =consult--source-project-buffer-hidden= and
   =consult--source-project-recent-file-hidden=. Set the buffer sources of
   =consult-project= to =consult--source-project-buffer= and
   =consult--source-project-recent-file= to ease customization.
 - =consult-buffer=: Explicitly save =window-next-buffers= and =window-prev-buffers=.
 - When previewing files literally (=consult-preview-raw-size=), set the multi byte
   flag of the previewed buffer, such that UTF-8 buffers are not garbled.
 - Do not create preview cursor overlay. Instead display the actual point by
   ensuring that =cursor-in-non-selected-windows= is set.
 
 * Version 0.33 (2023-03-11)
 
 - BREAKING: The key convention has been updated. The old key convention is not
   supported anymore. Keys must now be strings valid according to =key-valid-p=.
   This changes affects the keys =consult-narrow-key=, =consult-widen-key=,
   =consult-preview-key= and the =:preview-key= of sources and passed as keyword
   argument to =consult--read=. See the example configurations in the manual.
 - BREAKING: Remove the "." argument from  =consult-grep-args= and
   =consult-ripgrep-args=, since directories or files to search are appended by the
   command line builder. Take this change into account, when you use a customized
   version of those variables.
 - =consult-grep=: Add support for grep and find over multiple files or directory.
   If the prefix argument DIR is a single C-u, prompt for comma separated
   directories or files to search recursively via =completing-read-multiple=.
 - =consult-buffer= and =consult-isearch-history=: Align annotations dynamically
   depending on candidate width, instead of computing the alignment beforehand.
 - Add the full path as =help-echo= property to abbreviated directory paths and
   project names. Enable =tooltip-mode= and hover with the mouse over the
   abbreviated directory path to see the full path.
 - =consult-grep/find/etc=: Print first line of stderr output if command failed.
 
 * Version 0.32 (2023-02-06)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Deprecate the old key convention. Keys must now be strings valid according to
   =key-valid-p=. This changes affects the keys =consult-narrow-key=,
   =consult-widen-key=, =consult-preview-key= and the =:preview-key= of sources and
   passed as keyword argument to =consult--read=. See the example configurations in
   the manual.
 - Add =consult-info= command (#634, #727).
 - =consult-buffer=: Always select the first candidate when narrowing (#714).
 - =consult-locate-args=: Remove =--existing=, which is not supported by =plocate= on
   Debian stable.
 - =consult-ripgrep-args=: Add =--search-zip= option to automatically search through
   compressed files. This will allow you to search Elisp files bundled with your
   Emacs installation. Move to an Elisp library via =find-library=, then invoke
   =consult-ripgrep=.
 - Drop obsolete =consult-apropos=. Alternatives: =describe-symbol= in combination
   with =embark-export=. See also =consult-info= and =consult-ripgrep= to search
   through info manuals and Elisp source code.
 - Drop obsolete =consult-multi-occur=. Alternative: Built-in =multi-occur=,
   =multi-occur-in-matching-buffers= or =consult-line-multi=.
 - Drop obsolete =consult-file-externally=. The command has been moved to Embark
   under the name =embark-open-externally=.
 
 * Version 0.31 (2023-01-06)
 
 - Version bump to update the Compat package dependency (29.1.0.1)
 
 * Version 0.30 (2023-01-02)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Drop Selectrum support
 - Deprecate =consult-file-externally= in favor of =embark-open-externally=
 - Deprecate =consult-multi-occur=. The =multi-occur= command should be improved
   upstream to take advantage of =completing-read-multiple=. Consult provides the
   command =consult-line-multi= as an alternative.
 - =consult-history=: Use input as initial completion input
 
 * Version 0.29 (2022-12-03)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - =consult-line-multi= has been rewritten completely. The candidates are computed
   on demand based on the input. This reduces startup speed greatly. The command
   behaves like =consult-grep=, but operates on buffers instead of files.
 - Add =consult--source-file-register=, and make the registers available in
   =consult-buffer=. Registers are often used as quick access keys for files, e.g.,
   =(add-to-list 'register-alist '(?i file . "~/.emacs.d/init.el")))=.
 - Remove obsolete =consult-line-point-placement=
 - =consult-grep/find=: Always show directory in the prompt
 - Add variable =consult-yank-rotate=, =consult-yank-from-kill-ring= rotates kill ring
 - Emacs 29: =consult-register= supports =buffer= register type
 - Emacs 29: Support =outline-search-function=
 - Org 9.6: Support new =org-fold-core= API (both overlays and text-properties)
 - Support abbreviated file names in =recentf-list=, see =recentf-filename-handler=.
 - Deprecate =consult-apropos=
 
 * Version 0.20 (2022-10-16)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Allow =consult-*-args= to be a string, or a list of strings or expressions.
 - Introduce face =consult-highlight-match= to highlight grep matches in the
   completion buffer.
 - Highlight full matches in =consult-line=, =consult-outline=, =consult-*grep= and
   =consult-flymake=.
 - Remove face =consult-preview-error=.
 - Deprecate =consult-line-point-placement= in favor of more general
   =consult-point-placement=, which is also used by the =consult-*grep= commands.
 - =consult-imenu=: Support imenu-after-jump-hook and non-default
   =imenu-default-goto-function=
 - =consult-history=: Add support for history index variables, which are updated
   after selection.
 - Deprecate support for Selectrum in favor of Vertico. If you use Selectrum
   consider switching to Vertico, Icomplete, Mct or default completion.
 
 * Version 0.19 (2022-09-09)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Allow =consult-flymake= to work across all buffers in a project
 - Remove deprecated =consult-completing-read-multiple=
 - =consult-grep/git-grep/ripgrep=: Add =--fixed-strings= support
 - =consult-grep=: Respect =grep-find-ignored-directories/files=
 - =consult-org-heading=: Add tags to completion candidates

 - Bugfixes
 - Removed obsolete =consult-recent-file-filter= and =consult-preview-excluded-hooks=
 - Deprecate =consult-completing-read-multiple=. See #567 for details.
 - Add =consult--source-modified-buffer=
 
 * Version 0.17 (2022-04-22)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Drop Emacs 26 support.
 - =consult-goto-line=: Use =goto-line-history= on Emacs 28.
 - =consult-customize=: Evaluate settings at runtime. This change makes it possible
   to use =thing-at-point= to overwrite the =:initial= and =:add-history= settings.
 - Rename =consult--read-config= to =consult--customize-alist= and change the format.
   The configuration is an alist. The car must be a command symbol. The cdr must
   be a plist of keys and expressions, where the expressions evaluate to the
   actual configuration values.
 - Mode hooks in previewed file buffers are delayed. The buffer is only fully
   initialized when leaving the minibuffer for recursive editing.
 - Increase =consult-preview-raw-size=.
 - Replace =consult-preview-excluded-hooks= by =consult-preview-allowed-hooks=.
 - Add =consult-preview-variables= to bind variables for file preview.
 - BREAKING API CHANGE of =consult--read=, =consult--prompt=, =consult--multi=: The
   state function protocol changed. The function gets notified of more completion
   state changes. See the docstring of =consult--with-preview= for details.
 - BREAKING API CHANGE of =consult--read=: The lookup function protocol changed.
   The function must now accept four or more arguments.
 - Remove unused =consult-preview-map=.
 - Remove unnecessary =consult-recent-file-filter=. Use =recentf-exclude= instead.
 - =consult--multi= sources can have a =:new= function to create candidates.
   When narrowed to a source, new candidates will be created by calling the
   respective =:new= function.
 - =consult--multi= returns =:match= information. =:match= can be nil, t, or new,
   depending on if the candidate does not exist, exists or has been created.
 - =consult-locate= treats the input literally to take advantage of the db index.
 
 * Version 0.16 (2022-03-08)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Deprecate =consult-project-root-function= in favor of =consult-project-function=.
 - Preconfigure =consult-project-function= with a default function based
   on project.el.
 - Add =consult-project-buffer=, a variant of =consult-buffer= restricted to the
   current project.
 - Add =consult-register-prefix= option.
 - Introduced a generic and extensible =consult-register= implementation.
 - Lazy marker creation in =consult-line/outline= (performance improvements)
 
 * Version 0.15 (2022-01-31)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - =consult-xref=: Prettify the group titles, use =xref--group-name-for-display=
   if available.
 - =consult-focus-lines=: Thanks to @jdtsmith, the command is much faster and
   actually useable in large files.
 - Added Mct integration, auto refreshing of asynchronous Consult commands.
 
 * Version 0.14 (2021-12-31)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Add =consult-recent-file-filter=
 - Rename =consult--source-(project-)file= to =consult-source-(project-)recent-file=
 - =consult-keep-lines= makes read-only buffers temporarily writable if confirmed
 
 * Version 0.13 (2021-11-12)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - =consult-register=: Add support for file register values.
 - Rename =consult-isearch= to =consult-isearch-history=. The command is a history
   browsing command and not a replacement for Isearch.
 - =consult-grep= support -[ABC] grep options
 - Add =consult-grep-context= face
 
 * Version 0.12 (2021-10-11)
 
 - Bugfixes
 - Removed obsolete =consult-project-imenu= and =consult-x-command= variables
 - =consult-grep=: Use ~--null~ argument to support file names with colons
 
 * Version 0.11 (2021-08-18)
 
 - Bugfixes only
 
 * Version 0.10 (2021-08-11)
 
 - =consult-mark=, =consult-global-mark=: Add optional marker list argument
 - =consult-completing-read-multiple=: New function
 - Rename =consult-project-imenu= to =consult-imenu-multi=
 - Add =consult-line-multi= to search multiple buffers
 - Removed obsolete =consult-yank=, =consult-async-default-split=, =consult-config=
 - =consult-ripgrep=: Use =--smart-case=
 - =consult-grep/git-grep=: Use =--ignore-case=
 - Deprecate =consult-<cmd>-command= in favor of =consult-<cmd>-config.=
 - =consult-find=: Use regular expressions instead of globbing/wildcards by default.
   Due to the changes to =consult-find= it is not possible anymore to configure
   =fd= as backend for =consult-find=. A replacement is documented in the wiki.
 - =consult-find/locate/man=: Add highlighting to the matching file/man page names.
 - =consult-grep/git-grep/ripgrep/find/locate=: Add support for multiple unordered
   patterns. Each of the input patterns must be matched. For example,
   =consult-find= transforms the input "first second third" to "first -and second
   -and third".
 - =consult-grep/git-grep/ripgrep=: Compute the highlighting based on the input,
   instead of relying on the ANSI-escaped output. This works better with multiple
   patterns, but may occasionally produce false highlighting.
 - Deprecate =consult-x-command= configuration variables in favor of =consult-x-args=.
   The variables have been renamed since the configuration format changed.
 - =consult-async-split-styles-alist=: Remove the =space= splitting style, since
   it has been obsoleted by the support for multiple unordered patterns.
 
 * Version 0.9 (2021-06-22)

 - =consult-org-heading=: Deduplicate items.
 - =consult-buffer-filter=: Hide more buffers.
 - =consult-line=: Matching line preview overlay only in the selected window.
 - =consult-yank/completion-in-region=: Insertion preview only in selected window.

 - =consult-yank= commands: =delete-selection-mode= support, added properties.
 - =consult-preview-at-point=, =consult-preview-at-point-mode=: New command and
   minor mode to preview candidate at point in =*Completions*= buffer.

 - Bugfixes
 - =consult-buffer=: Respect =confirm-nonexistent-file-or-buffer=
 - =consult-widen-key=: Change default setting to twice the =consult-narrow-key=
 - =consult-flycheck=: Sort errors first
 - Added support for the Vertico completion system
 - Consult adds disambiguation suffixes as suffix instead of as prefix now
   for the commands =consult-line=, =consult-buffer=, etc.
   This enables support for the =basic= completion style and TAB completion.
 - =consult--read=: The =:title= function must accept two arguments now,
   the candidate string and a flag. If the flag is nil, the function should
   return the title of the candidate, otherwise the function should return the
   transformed candidate.
 - =consult-grep= and related commands: Strip the file name if grouping is used.
 - =consult-find/grep=: Ensure that the commands work with Tramp
 - =consult-outline=: Add narrowing
 - Added =consult-org-heading= and =consult-org-agenda=
 - =consult-line=: Highlight visual line during jump preview
 - =consult-line=: Start search at current line, add configuration variable
   =consult-start-from-top=. The starting point can be toggled by the prefix
   argument =C-u=.
 
 * Version 0.6 (2021-03-02)
