docs: final update after rewrite

2025-05-21T07:15:29Z

Make clear this is not the default branch

feat(install)!: migrate to latest async.nvim impl (#7856)

2025-05-16T16:33:52Z

Provides significantly simpler blocking installation and update.

docs: update to rewrite

2025-05-12T16:43:41Z

This updates * README * CONTRIBUTING * the `:h nvim-treesitter` documentation to the current state of `main`. It also adds a pull request template for adding a new language.

feat!: update tier 1 parsers to versions

2025-05-12T16:43:41Z

feat(tests)!: new infrastructure based on makefile

2025-05-12T16:43:41Z

Problem: Not easy to run all checks and tests locally. Redundant CI workflows. Solution: Separate CI into two workflows: * lint: Lua files (stylua, luals), query files (valid captures, predicates, directives using tsqueryls), docs (SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES.md) -- does not need parser installation * tests: parsers (ABI compatibility), query files (tsqueryls on Linux/macOS; nvim on Windows), highlight and indent tests (separated for better readability) -- needs parser installation (but only once) Switch to https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/highlight-assertions fork with ABI 15 support. Run all tests (on Linux and macOS) through `make` (`formatlua`, `checklua`, `lintquery`, `formatquery`, `checkquery`, `docs`, `tests`), which downloads and caches all necessary dependencies. Remove `update-readme` workflow (replaced by lint job on PRs).

feat(setup)!: remove ensure_install field

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Instead, call `require('nvim-treesitter').install( { ... } )` manually. This gives users full control over how they want to install parsers (sync, from grammar, limited concurrency) and obviates the need for calling `setup` for most users.

feat: add .tsqueryrc.json

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

fix(install): don't prompt on installed parsers (skip)

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Use `:TSInstall!` or `force = true` to reinstall.

feat(parsers): rework tiers

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

* stable: updates follow semver releases (todo) * unstable: updates follow HEAD (default) * unmaintained: no automatic updates * unsupported: no updates, cannot be installed

feat(install)!: drop support for git

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Problem: Using git for installing parsers can lead to data loss if in a git commit buffer. Solution: Only support downloading via curl+tar, which are installed on all supported platforms (since Windows 10). Curl will also be required for WASM parsers (and for `vim.net.download()`).

feat!: use tree-sitter build

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

feat!: track parser revision in Lua

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Problem: Tracking parser revision in lockfile and allowing override through the parsers module complicates the code. In addition, only revision changes are handled robustly, not changes to other installation info. Solution: Track parser revision in the parsers module directly. Reload parser table on every install or update call. Support modifying parser table in a `User TSUpdate` autocommand.

feat: add parser tiers

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Tier 1: Stable Tier 2: Core (maintained by org members) Tier 3: Community (maintained by external contributors, to varying degree) Tier 4: Unsupported (lacking active maintainer or declared experimental); skipped in lockfile update and ignored for automatic install by default

feat!: drop makefile support, norg parser

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Norg install_info and queries are maintained by neorg. All other parsers are compatible with C++11, so fix that as standard. (Can be bumped if all supported platforms support C++14.) Remove Makefile support, as it's no longer needed.

fix: install dependencies

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

ci: remove update-lockfile shell script

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

refactor: rewrite installation using jobs and async

2025-05-12T16:43:40Z

Replace sync variants with callback support
