Problem: the canola rename creates unnecessary friction for users
migrating from stevearc/oil.nvim — every `require('oil')` call and
config reference must change.
Solution: revert all module paths, URL schemes, autocmd groups,
highlight groups, and filetype names back to `oil`. The repo stays
`canola.nvim` for identity; the code is a drop-in replacement.
Problem: the codebase still used the upstream \`oil\` naming everywhere —
URL schemes, the \`:Oil\` command, highlight groups, user events, module
paths, filetypes, buffer/window variables, LuaCATS type annotations,
vimdoc help tags, syntax groups, and internal identifiers.
Solution: mechanical rename of every reference. URL schemes now use
\`canola://\` (plus \`canola-ssh://\`, \`canola-s3://\`, \`canola-sss://\`,
\`canola-trash://\`, \`canola-test://\`). The \`:Canola\` command replaces
\`:Oil\`. All highlight groups, user events, augroups, namespaces,
filetypes, require paths, type annotations, help tags, and identifiers
follow suit. The \`upstream\` remote to \`stevearc/oil.nvim\` has been
removed and the \`vim.g.oil\` deprecation shim dropped.
Problem: when the nonicons direct API was detected, all icons were
returned with the generic 'OilFileIcon' highlight group, losing
per-filetype colors from nvim-web-devicons.
Solution: resolve highlight groups from devicons when available so
nonicons glyphs retain their per-filetype colors.
Problem: nonicons.nvim exposes a public get_icon/get_icon_by_filetype
API, but oil.nvim can only use nonicons glyphs indirectly through the
devicons monkey-patch. This couples oil to devicons even when nonicons
is available standalone.
Solution: add a nonicons provider in get_icon_provider() between
mini.icons and devicons. Feature-gated on nonicons.get_icon existing
so old nonicons versions fall through to devicons. Uses OilDirIcon
and OilFileIcon highlight groups.
* feat(icons): add nonicons.nvim icon provider support
Problem: oil.nvim only recognizes mini.icons and nvim-web-devicons as
icon providers. nonicons.nvim works when paired with devicons (via its
apply() monkey-patch), but has no standalone support.
Solution: add a nonicons.nvim fallback in get_icon_provider(), placed
after devicons so the patched devicons path is preferred when both are
installed. The standalone path handles directories via
nonicons.get('file-directory'), files via filetype/extension lookup with
a generic file icon fallback.
* fix(doc): improve readme phrasing
* build: replace luacheck with selene
Problem: luacheck is unmaintained (last release 2018) and required
suppressing four warning classes to avoid false positives. It also
lacks first-class vim/neovim awareness.
Solution: switch to selene with std='vim' for vim-aware linting.
Replace the luacheck CI job with selene, update the Makefile lint
target, and delete .luacheckrc.
* build: add nix devshell and pre-commit hooks
Problem: oil.nvim had no reproducible dev environment. The .envrc
set up a Python venv for the now-removed docgen pipeline, and there
were no pre-commit hooks for local formatting checks.
Solution: add flake.nix with stylua, selene, and prettier in the
devshell. Replace the stale Python .envrc with 'use flake'. Add
.pre-commit-config.yaml with stylua and prettier hooks matching
other plugins in the repo collection.
* fix: format with stylua
* build(selene): configure lints and add inline suppressions
Problem: selene fails on 5 errors and 3 warnings from upstream code
patterns that are intentional (mixed tables in config API, unused
callback parameters, identical if branches for readability).
Solution: globally allow mixed_table and unused_variable (high volume,
inherent to the codebase design). Add inline selene:allow directives
for the 8 remaining issues: if_same_then_else (4), mismatched_arg_count
(1), empty_if (2), global_usage (1). Remove .envrc from tracking.
* build: switch typecheck action to mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action
Problem: oil.nvim used stevearc/nvim-typecheck-action, which required
cloning the action repo locally for the Makefile lint target. All
other plugins in the collection use mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action.
Solution: swap to mrcjkb/lua-typecheck-action@v0 for consistency.
Remove the nvim-typecheck-action git clone from the Makefile and
.gitignore. Drop LuaLS from the local lint target since it requires
a full language server install — CI handles it.
Problem: CI typecheck fails with 13 warnings — 11 need-check-nil in
util.render_text (opts param annotated nil|table but guaranteed non-nil
after tbl_deep_extend), 1 undefined-doc-param in view.render_buffer_async
(annotation says "callback" but param is "caller_callback"), and 1
need-check-nil on opts in the same function.
Solution: add ---@cast opts -nil after the tbl_deep_extend call, fix
the param name in the doc annotation, and add opts = opts or {} guard.
Problem: when nvim-web-devicons returns no highlight for an unrecognized
file extension, the icon gets nil for its highlight group. Directories
have OilDirIcon as a targetable fallback, but files have nothing.
Solution: define OilFileIcon (linked to nil, matching OilFile) and use
it as the fallback in the devicons provider when get_icon returns a nil
highlight. The mini.icons provider already returns highlights for all
files so only the devicons path needs this.
Resolves: stevearc/oil.nvim#690
Problem: files without standard extensions (e.g. scripts with
shebangs, Makefile, Dockerfile) got incorrect or default icons since
icon providers match by filename or extension only.
Solution: add use_slow_filetype_detection option to the icon column
config. When enabled, reads the first 16 lines of each file and
passes them to vim.filetype.match for content-based detection. The
detected filetype is forwarded to mini.icons or nvim-web-devicons as
a trailing parameter, preserving backwards compatibility with
existing icon provider implementations.

loaded by the user and (2) we get LSP completion/validation with that
