How to develop

To build Neovim for development, i.e., no universal binary, do the following

clean=false for_dev=true ./bin/build_nvimserver.sh

You can set clean=true if you want to clean the existing build.

Generating sources when upgrading Neovim

clean=true ./RxPack/bin/generate_sources.sh # generate API methods
clean=false for_dev=true ./bin/build_nvimserver.sh # generate auto commands and cursor modes

How to release

  • Set a new version of VimR via 
    is_snapshot=true ./bin/set_new_versions.sh # for snapshot or
is_snapshot=false marketing_version=0.38.3 ./bin/set_new_versions.sh # for release
    and commit. This will create a ${bundle_version}-snapshot/release.sh file to be used with build_release.sh and release-notes.temp.md for release notes.
  • Tag with the name
    • Snapshot: snapshot/yyyymmdd.HHMMSS
    • Release: vX.Y.Z-yyyymmdd.HHMMSS
  • Push
  • Add release notes to release-notes.temp.md.
  • Build, package and upload via 
    create_gh_release=true upload=true update_appcast=true \
release_spec_file=....sh \
./bin/build_release.sh
  • The appcast{-snapshot}.xml file is modified. Check and push.
