Notable improvements and fixes
------------------------------
- Compound commands (``begin; echo 1; echo 2; end``) can now be now be abbreviated using braces (``{ echo1; echo 2 }``), like in other shells.
- When tab completion results are truncated, any common directory name is omitted.
- When tab completion results are truncated, any common directory name is omitted. E.g. if you complete "share/functions", and it includes the files "foo.fish" and "bar.fish",
the completion pager will now show "…/foo.fish" and "…/bar.fish". This will make the candidates shorter and allow for more to be shown at once.
- The self-installing configuration introduced in fish 4.0 has been changed.
Now fish built with embedded data will just read the data straight from its own binary or write it out when necessary, instead of requiring an installation step on start.
That means it is now possible to build fish as a single file and copy it to a compatible system, including as a different user, without extracting any files.
As before this is the default when building via `cargo`, and disabled when building via `cmake`, and for packagers we continue to recommend cmake.
Note: When fish is built like this, the `$__fish_data_dir` variable will be empty because that directory no longer has meaning. If you need to load files from there,
use `status get-file` or find alternatives (like loading completions for "foo" via `complete -C"foo "`).
We're considering making data embedding mandatory in future releases because it has a few advantages even for installation from a package (like making file conflicts with other packages impossible). (:issue:`11143`)
Deprecations and removed features
---------------------------------
- Tokens like ``{ echo, echo }`` in command position are no longer interpreted as brace expansion but as compound command.
- Terminfo-style key names (``bind -k``) are no longer supported. They had been superseded by the native notation.
- fish no longer reads the terminfo database, so its behavior is no longer affected by the :envvar:`TERM` environment variable (:issue:`11344`).
For the time being, this can be turned off with the "no-ignore-terminfo" feature flag::
set -Ua fish_features no-ignore-terminfo
- The `--install` option when fish is built as self-installable was removed. If you need to write out fish's data you can use the new `status list-files` and `status get-file` subcommands, but it should no longer be necessary. (:issue:`11143`)
Scripting improvements
