feat(nvim): layout.show_path_first (relayered #815) - #837
Conversation
Applies @dmtrKovalenko's review of #815 on top of the original commit: - `file_picker.display_relative_path` -> `layout.show_path_first`. The option is project-wide now, so grep file group headers follow it too instead of being excluded. - Extract the name section rendering (display text + byte offsets for the git, directory and fuzzy highlights) into `lua/fff/picker_ui/file_name_renderer.lua`. `file_renderer` no longer branches on the layout in four places. - Sync the README config block with `conf.lua` defaults and move `file_picker` directly after `layout`: added `wrap_around`, `keymaps.cycle_forward_query`, `logging.enabled`, `file_picker.current_file_label`, fixed `prompt` and `layout.path_shorten_strategy` defaults. Mirrored into the generated vimdoc. No deprecation shim: `display_relative_path` was reverted before any release, no user config can reference it.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe picker adds a ChangesPath-first file rendering
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This adds a project-wide option to render paths before filenames, including grep headers, while preserving the default layout. The remaining merge-readiness risk is bounded: the grep-header integration path is not directly exercised by the added test, so a regression there could go undetected and should receive follow-up.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Exercise the grep group-header path.
This test only calls renderer.render_line(...). Setting ctx.mode and ctx.suggestion_source does not invoke grep_renderer.apply_group_header_highlights(...), so a regression in the grep integration can pass. Call the grep renderer path, or rename this test to cover only line rendering.

Re-lands #815 (reverted in
be043d7) with @dmtrKovalenko's three review points applied on top. Original commit by @pompos02 is kept intact as the first commit; the second commit is the review.Root cause
Not a bug. #815 was reverted because the config shape was wrong: the option was file-picker-scoped, the rendering branch was inlined into
file_renderer.lua, anddisplay_relative_pathnamed the wrong thing (paths are displayed either way).Fix
layout—file_picker.display_relative_pathis nowlayout.show_path_first. Thectx.mode ~= 'grep' and ctx.suggestion_source ~= 'grep'exclusion is gone, so grep file group headers honour it too (they render throughfile_renderer.render_line).lua/fff/picker_ui/file_name_renderer.luaowns the name section: display text plus the byte offsets used by the git-status, directory and fuzzy-match extmarks.file_renderer.luashrinks by 75 lines and no longer branches on the layout in four places.show_path_first.Also, from your earlier comment on #815: README config block synced with
conf.luadefaults andfile_pickermoved directly afterlayout. Addedwrap_around,keymaps.cycle_forward_query,logging.enabled,file_picker.current_file_label; fixedprompt('> '->'🪿 ') andlayout.path_shorten_strategy('middle_number'->'middle') which did not match the defaults. Mirrored intodoc/fff.nvim.txteven though.github/workflows/panvimdoc.yamlregenerates it.No deprecation shim for
display_relative_path— it was reverted before any release, so no user config can reference it.Steps to reproduce
Default (
show_path_first = false) rendering must be byte-identical tomain, and the new layout must apply to both find_files and grep headers.Expected with
show_path_first = true: find_files rows renderlua/fff/picker_ui/file_renderer.lua, directory dimmed withhl.directory_path, filename still git-coloured, fuzzy match highlights on the right characters. Grep group headers render the same way (this is the behaviour change vs #815, where grep was excluded).Expected with the option unset: identical to
main—file_renderer.lua lua/fff/picker_ui.Actual on pre-revert #815:
layout.show_path_firstdoes not exist, andfile_picker.display_relative_path = trueleaves grep headers name-first.How verified
The two
show_path_firstreference screenshots are byte-identical to therelative_pathones from #815 (git-detected rename, 0 content lines changed) — both prompt positions still match, so the rename and the module extraction are behaviour-preserving. The newkeeps the name first layout and its offsets when disabledcase pins the default-layout extmark offsets that the extraction could have silently shifted.Automated triage via Gustav. Honk-Honk 🪿
