This adds support for (limited) mutable variables. Mutable variables are created with mut much the same way immutable variables are made with let.
Mutable variables allow mutation via the assignment operator (=).
❯ mut x = 100
❯ $x = 200
❯ print $x
200
Mutable variables are limited in that they're only tended to be used in the local code block. Trying to capture a local variable will result in an error:
❯ mut x = 123; {|| $x }
Error: nu::parser::expected_keyword (link)
× Capture of mutable variable.
The intent of this limitation is to reduce some of the issues with mutable variables in general: namely they make code that's harder to reason about. By reducing the scope that a mutable variable can be used it, we can help create local reasoning about them.
Mutation can occur with fields as well, as in this case:
❯ mut y = {abc: 123}
❯ $y.abc = 456
❯ $y
On a historical note: mutable variables are something that we resisted for quite a long time, leaning as much as we could on the functional style of pipelines and dataflow. That said, we've watched folks struggle to work with reduce as an approximation for patterns that would be trivial to express with local mutation. With that in mind, we're leaning towards the happy path.
- Custom commands are true for builtin and custom
- Add classification as external command
- Specify wildcard in keyword: keyword is true for builtin and keyword
* Add failing test that list of ints and floats is List<Number>
* Start defining subtype relation
* Make it possible to declare input and output types for commands
- Enforce them in tests
* Declare input and output types of commands
* Add formatted signatures to `help commands` table
* Revert SyntaxShape::Table -> Type::Table change
* Revert unnecessary derive(Hash) on SyntaxShape

Allows use of slightly optimized variants that check if they have to use
the heavier vte parser. Tries to avoid unnnecessary allocations. Initial
performance characteristics proven out in #4378.
Also reduces boilerplate with right-ward drift.
* remove export_env command
* remove several export env usage in test code
* adjust hiding relative test case
* fix clippy
* adjust tests
* update tests
* unignore these tests to expose ut failed
* using `use` instead of `overlay use` in some tests
* Revert "using `use` instead of `overlay use` in some tests"
This reverts commit 2ae24b24c3.
* Revert "adjust hiding relative test case"
This reverts commit 4369af6d05.
* Bring back module example
* Revert "update tests"
This reverts commit 6ae94ef513.
* Fix tests
* "Fix" a test
* Remove remaining deprecated env functionality
* Re-enable environment hiding for `hide`
To not break virtualenv since the overlay update is not merged yet
* Fix hiding env in `hide` and ignore some tests

* fix issue 6602 (broken highlighting in find)
Find uses highlight_search_string to see where the string was found. The problem was that the style would just "append" to the existing haystack (including the ANSI escape codes of LS_COLORS).
This first strips the ANSI escape codes out of the haystack before formatting the
output string.
* update formatting
* Add source-env test for dynamic path
* Use correct module ID for env overlay imports
* Remove parser check from "overlay list"
It would cause unnecessary errors from some inner scope if some
overlay module was also defined in some inner scope.
* Restore Cargo.lock back
* Remove comments
* start working on source-env
* WIP
* Get most tests working, still one to go
* Fix file-relative paths; Report parser error
* Fix merge conflicts; Restore source as deprecated
* Tests: Use source-env; Remove redundant tests
* Fmt
* Respect hidden env vars
* Fix file-relative eval for source-env
* Add file-relative eval to "overlay use"
* Use FILE_PWD only in source-env and "overlay use"
* Ignore new tests for now
This will be another issue
* Throw an error if setting FILE_PWD manually
* Fix source-related test failures
* Fix nu-check to respect FILE_PWD
* Fix corrupted spans in source-env shell errors
* Fix up some references to old source
* Remove deprecation message
* Re-introduce deleted tests

* Test commands for proper names and search terms
Assert that the `Command.name()` is equal to `Signature.name`
Check that search terms are not just substrings of the command name as
they would not help finding the command.
* Clean up search terms
Remove redundant terms that just replicate the command name.
Try to eliminate substring between search terms, clean up where
necessary.
* Add hide-env to hide env vars; Cleanup tests
Also, there were some old unalias tests that I converted to hide.
* Add missing file
* Re-enable hide for env vars
* Fix test
* Rename did you mean error back
It was causing random tests to break
* Allow private imports inside modules
Can call `use ...` inside modules now.
* Add more tests
* Add a leak test
* Refactor exportables; Prepare for 'export use'
* Fix description
* Implement 'export use' command
This allows re-exporting module's commands and aliases from another
module.
* Add more tests; Fix import pattern list strings
The import pattern strings didn't trim the surrounding quotes.
* Add ignored test
* introduce external command runs to failed error, and implement semicolon relative logic
* ignore test due to semicolon works
* not raise ShellError for external commands
* update comment
* add relative test in for windows
* fix type-o
