# Description
The standard library's `path add` function has some surprising side
effects that I attempt to address in this PR:
1. Paths added, if they are symbolic links, should not be resolved to
their targets. Currently, resolution happens.
Imagine the following:
```nu
# Some time earlier, perhaps even not by the user, a symlink is created
mkdir real-dir
ln -s real-dir link-dir
# Then, step to now, with link-dir that we want in our PATHS variable
use std
path add link-dir
```
In the current implementation of `path add`, it is _not_ `link-dir` that
will be added, as has been stated in the command. It is instead
`real-dir`. This is surprising. Users have the agency to do this
resolution if they wish with `path expand` (sans a `--no-symlink` flag):
for example, `path add (link-dir | path expand)`
In particular, when I was trying to set up
[fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm), a Node.js version manager, I was
bitten by this fact when `fnm` told me that an expected path had not
been added to the PATHS variable. It was looking for the non-resolved
link. The user in [this
comment](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm/issues/463#issuecomment-1710050737)
was likely affected by this too.
Shells, such as nushell, can handle path symlinks just fine. Binary
lookup is unaffected. Let resolution be opt-in.
Lastly, there is some convention already in place for **not** resolving
path symlinks in the [default $env.ENV_CONVERSIONS
table](57452337ff/crates/nu-utils/src/sample_config/default_env.nu (L65)).
2. All existing paths in the path variable should be left untouched.
Currently, they are `path expand`-ed (including symbolic link
resolution).
Path add should mean just that: prepend/append this path.
Instead, it currently means that, _plus mutate all other paths in the
variable_.
Again, users have the agency to do this with something like `$env.PATH =
$env.PATH | split row (char esep) | path expand`.
3. Minorly, I update documentation on running tests in
`crates/nu-std/CONTRIBUTING.md`. The offered command to run the standard
library test suite was no longer functional. Thanks to @weirdan in [this
Discord
conversation](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/614593951969574961/1256029201119576147)
for the context.
# User-Facing Changes
(Written from the perspective of release notes)
- The standard library's `path add` function no longer resolves symlinks
in either the newly added paths, nor the other paths already in the
variable.
# Tests + Formatting
A test for the changes working correctly has been added to
`crates/nu-std/tests/test_std.nu` under the test named
`path_add_expand`.
You can quickly verify this new test and the existing `path add` test
with the following command:
```nu
cargo run -- -c 'use crates/nu-std/testing.nu; NU_LOG_LEVEL=INFO testing run-tests --path crates/nu-std --test path_add'
```
All commands suggested in the issue template have been run and complete
without error.
# After Submitting
I'll add a release note to [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged.

# Tests + Formatting
a new test called `repeat_things` in `test_std.nu`
# After Submitting
# Description
* The path to the binaries for tests is slightly incorrect. It is
missing the build target when it is set with the `CARGO_BUILD_TARGET`
environment variable. For example, when `CARGO_BUILD_TARGET` is set to
`aarch64-linux-android`, the path to the `nu` binary is:
`./target/aarch64-linux-android/debug/nu`
rather than
`./target/debug/nu`
This is common on Termux since the default target that rustc detects can
cause problems on some projects, such as [python's `cryptography`
package](https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/7248).
This technically isn't a problem specific to Android, but is more likely
to happen on Android due to the latter.
* Additionally, the existing variable named `NUSHELL_CARGO_TARGET` is in
fact the profile, not the build target, so this was renamed to
`NUSHELL_CARGO_PROFILE`. This change is included because without the
rename, the build system would be using `CARGO_BUILD_TARGET` for the
build target and `NUSHELL_CARGO_TARGET` for the build profile, which is
confusing.
* `std path add` tests were missing `android` test
# User-Facing Changes
For those who would like to build nushell on Termux, the unit tests will
pass now.

# Description
Test runner now uses annotations instead of magic function names to pick
up code to run. Additionally skipping tests is now done on annotation
level so skipping and unskipping a test no longer requires changes to
the test code
In order for a function to be picked up by the test runner it needs to
meet following criteria:
* Needs to be private (all exported functions are ignored)
* Needs to contain one of valid annotations (and only the annotation)
directly above the definition, all other comments are ignored
Following are considered valid annotations:
* \# test
* \# test-skip
* \# before-all
* \# before-each
* \# after-each
* \# after-all

# Description
For years, Nushell has used `let-env` to set a single environment
variable. As our work on scoping continued, we refined what it meant for
a variable to be in scope using `let` but never updated how `let-env`
would work. Instead, `let-env` confusingly created mutations to the
command's copy of `$env`.
So, to help fix the mental model and point people to the right way of
thinking about what changing the environment means, this PR removes
`let-env` to encourage people to think of it as updating the command's
environment variable via mutation.
Before:
```
let-env FOO = "BAR"
```
Now:
```
$env.FOO = "BAR"
```
It's also a good reminder that the environment owned by the command is
in the `$env` variable rather than global like it is in other shells.
# User-Facing Changes
BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE
This completely removes `let-env FOO = "BAR"` so that we can focus on
`$env.FOO = "BAR"`.

# Description
Test runner now performs following actions in order to run tests:
* Module file is opened
* Public function with random name is added to the source code, this
function calls user-specified private function
* Modified module file is saved under random name in $nu.temp-path
* Modified module file is imported in subprocess, injected function is
called by the test runner
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
* Test functions no longer need to be exported
* test functions no longer need to reside in separate test_ files
* setup and teardown renamed to before-each and after-each respectively
* before-all and after-all functions added that run before all tests in
given module. This matches the behavior of test runners used by other
languages such as JUnit/TestNG or Mocha

related to the namespace bullet point in
- https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8450
# Description
this was the last module of the standard library with a broken
namespace, this PR takes care of this.
- `run-tests` has been moved to `std/mod.nu`
- `std/testing.nu` has been moved to `std/assert.nu`
- the namespace has been fixed
- `assert` is now called `main` and used in all the other `std assert`
commands
- for `std assert length` and `std assert str contains`, in order not to
shadow the built-in `length` and `str contains` commands, i've used
`alias "core ..." = ...` to (1) define `foo` in `assert.nu` and (2)
still use the builtin `foo` with `core foo` (replace `foo` by `length`
or `str contains`)
- tests have been fixed accordingly
# User-Facing Changes
one can not use
```
use std "assert equal"
```
anymore because `assert ...` is not exported from `std`.
`std assert` is now a *real* module.
# Tests + Formatting

# Notes for reviewers
to test this, i think the easiest is to
- run `toolkit test stdlib` and see all the tests pass
- run `cargo run -- -n` and try `use std assert` => are all the commands
available in scope?

# Description
with the new `$nu.startup-time` from #8353 and as mentionned in #8311,
we are now able to fully move the `nushell` banner from the `rust`
source base to the standard library.
this PR
- removes all the `rust` source code for the banner
- rewrites a perfect clone of the banner to `std.nu`, called `std
banner`
- call `std banner` from `default_config.nu`
# User-Facing Changes
see the demo: https://asciinema.org/a/566521
- no config will show the banner (e.g. `cargo run --release --
--no-config-file`)
- a custom config without the `if $env.config.show_banner` block and no
call to `std banner` would never show the banner
- a custom config with the block and `config.show_banner = true` will
show the banner
- a custom config with the block and `config.show_banner = false` will
NOT show the banner
# Tests + Formatting
a new test line has been added to `tests.nu` to check the length of the
`std banner` output.
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
