2018-01-31	WIP error sets	Andrew Kelley

2018-01-25	syntax: functions require return type. remove `->`	Andrew Kelley
	The purpose of this is: * Only one way to do things * Changing a function with void return type to return a possible error becomes a 1 character change, subtly encouraging people to use errors. See #632 Here are some imperfect sed commands for performing this update: remove arrow: ``` sed -i 's/$\bfn\b.$-> /\1/g' $(find . -name ".zig") ``` add void: ``` sed -i 's/$\bfn\b.$)\s{/\1) void {/g' $(find ../ -name "*.zig") ``` Some cleanup may be necessary, but this should do the bulk of the work.
2018-01-23	cleanups that I meant to put in the previous commit	Andrew Kelley

2018-01-09	remove %% prefix operator	Andrew Kelley
	See #632 closes #545 closes #510 this makes #651 higher priority
2018-01-07	replace `a %% b` with `a catch b`	Andrew Kelley
	See #632 better fits the convention of using keywords for control flow
2018-01-07	replace `%return` with `try`	Andrew Kelley
	See #632 better fits the convention of using keywords for control flow
2017-12-22	explicitly return from blocks	Andrew Kelley
	instead of last statement being expression value closes #629
2017-12-20	add labeled loops, labeled break, labeled continue. remove goto	Andrew Kelley
	closes #346 closes #630 regression: translate-c can no longer translate switch statements. after #629 we can ressurect and modify the code to utilize arbitrarily returning from blocks.
2017-12-19	bring back code that uses export and fix tests	Andrew Kelley
	partial revert of 1fdebc1dc4881a00766f7c2b4b2d8ee6ad6e79b6
2017-12-18	wip export rewrite	Andrew Kelley

2017-12-07	translate-c: support macros with pointer casting	Andrew Kelley

2017-12-03	rework enums and unions and their relationship to each other	Andrew Kelley
	* @enumTagName renamed to @tagName and it works on enums and union-enums * Remove the EnumTag type. Now there is only enum and union, and the tag type of a union is always an enum. * unions support specifying the tag enum type, and they support inferring an enum tag type. * Enums no longer support field types but they do support setting the tag values. Likewise union-enums when inferring an enum tag type support setting the tag values. * It is now an error for enums and unions to have 0 fields. * switch statements support union-enums closes #618
2017-12-02	ability to set tag values of enums	Andrew Kelley
	also remove support for enums with 0 values closes #305
2017-11-30	ability to specify tag type of enums	Andrew Kelley
	see #305
2017-11-14	c-to-zig: handle UO_Deref	Andrew Kelley

2017-09-21	parse-c: field access expressions	Andrew Kelley

2017-09-20	logical and, logical or	Josh Wolfe

2017-09-05	fix parseh bugs	Andrew Kelley

2017-09-02	rewrite parseh to use AST instead of direct types	Andrew Kelley
	some tests still failing
2017-08-30	align syntax: align(4) instead of align 4	Andrew Kelley
	closes #37
2017-08-29	more alignment improvements	Andrew Kelley
	* add alignment capability for fn protos * add @alignCast * fix some ast rendering code * fix some ir rendering code * add error for pointer cast increasing alignment * update allocators in std to correctly align See #37
2017-08-29	introduce align keyword	Andrew Kelley
	* remove `@setGlobalAlign` * add align keyword for setting alignment on functions and variables. * loads and stores use alignment from pointer * memcpy, memset use alignment from pointer * add syntax for pointer alignment * slices can have volatile * add u2, i2 primitives * ignore preferred align and use abi align everywhere * back to only having alignOf builtin. preferredAlignOf is too tricky to be useful. See #432. Partial revert of e726925e802eddab53cbfd9aacbc5eefe95c356f. See #37
2017-08-20	compile-time f32, f64 operations are now correctly lossy	Andrew Kelley
	previously we used the bigfloat abstraction to do all compile-time float math. but runtime code and comptime code are supposed to get the same result. so now if you add a f32 to a f32 at compile time it does it with f32 math instead of the bigfloat. float literals still get the bigfloat math. closes #424
2017-08-09	more intuitive left shift and right shift operators	Andrew Kelley
	Before: * << is left shift, not allowed to shift 1 bits out * <<% is left shift, allowed to shift 1 bits out * >> is right shift, allowed to shift 1 bits out After: * << is left shift, allowed to shift 1 bits out * >> is right shift, allowed to shift 1 bits out * @shlExact is left shift, not allowed to shift 1 bits out * @shrExact is right shift, not allowed to shift 1 bits out Closes #413

2017-04-12	block statement lists never get fake expressions	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-13	ability to inline at function callsite	Andrew Kelley
	closes #306
2017-04-10	fix some -Wconversion errors	Andrew Kelley

2017-03-26	new unreachable syntax	Andrew Kelley

2017-03-26	add comptime top level declaration	Andrew Kelley
	closes #255
2017-03-16	introduce new test syntax	Andrew Kelley
	* remove setFnTest builtin * add test "name" { ... } syntax * remove --check-unused argument. functions are always lazy now.
2017-02-27	fix inability to write to global in some cases	Andrew Kelley
	before, when we initialized a variable by copying the initialization value, it made the internal const value references point to a duplicate value, resulting in a phony duplicate global value being updated instead of the real on. now the behavior is as expected. thanks to hoppetosse for pointing out this bug on IRC.
2017-02-05	fix assigning to const ptr through struct or index	Andrew Kelley

2017-02-04	remove volatileStore builtin; add volatile pointers	Andrew Kelley
