Packer does not seem to be maintained. Version 2 being developed
by Lewis @ https://github.com/lewis6991/packer.nvim has breaking
changes. Migrating to Lazy will open it's own can of worms & it
does not use packages. Funny thing is author of Packer himself
uses Lazy.
We really should not be needing anything fancy. neovim can load
packages automatically from packpath. All we need is something
which will clone the packages to packpath and all those will be
automatically loaded.
paq.nvim which we were using before packer was the right choice
and does the bare minimum we stated above.
Rest all with features like fancy lazy loading is nonsense.
Do not make packer optional and remove use of after, cmd, config,
run and requires.
This is in preparation for testing if we can move off the plugin
manager and use in built packages support for handling packages.
While at it, drop unnecessary comments.
This reverts commit 058c37882d.
It is still helpful to have this it seems as without this working on
projects which do not have editorconfig becomes a pain.
The whole bunch of treesitter text objects were difficult to remember
and we ended up rarely ever using any of the defined mappings.
treehopper simplifies things with a single mapping and hints.
Upstream repos overwrite tags like release and then PackerSync complains
about failing to update since existing tags would be clobbered after an
update.
Use the new vim.lsp.start API and LspAttach/Detach auto commands.
Drop nvim-lspconfig in the process.
LSP server specific configuration has been taken from nvim-lspconfig.
We do not use any of the other features provided by rust-tools and
only ever needed the inlay hints. Now that there is a plugin for
that which also allows us to use inlay hints for other languages
use that.
There are two options
https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvimhttps://github.com/simrat39/inlay-hints.nvim
The second one is from the rust-tools author himself but we could
not get that to work.
The plugin is in maintenance mode and typescript.nvim does not support
inlay hints. We already use eslint language server and extra commands
provided by lsp-ts-utils/typescript.nvim is something we have never
used. Just drop it.
