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
2018-01-03	enum tag values are expressions so no parentheses needed	Andrew Kelley

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
2017-12-19	export keyword works again	Andrew Kelley

2017-12-19	wip bring back export keyword	Andrew Kelley

2017-12-18	wip export rewrite	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
2017-09-13	fix up msvc stuff to make it work on linux and macos too	Andrew Kelley

2017-09-11	Add support for MSVC	Jonathan Marler

2017-09-05	fix parseh bugs	Andrew Kelley

2017-09-01	c-to-zig: return statement	Andrew Kelley

2017-08-30	align syntax: align(4) instead of align 4	Andrew Kelley
	closes #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
2017-08-14	fix tokenization error pointing to wrong character	Andrew Kelley
	closes #401
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
2017-07-08	better bigint/bigfloat implementation	Andrew Kelley

2017-06-17	allow trailing commas	scurest
	closes #392
2017-06-14	progress toward windows hello world working	Andrew Kelley

2017-05-19	change slicing syntax from ... to ..	Andrew Kelley
	See #359
2017-05-09	inline function call with builtin function instead...	Andrew Kelley
	...of special syntax. partially reverts 41144a8566a6fbd779403f6b69424bb640c94a7f closes #306
2017-05-04	implement else on loops and break can give an expression	Andrew Kelley

2017-05-04	implement while for nullables and error unions	Andrew Kelley
	See #357
2017-05-03	change while syntax	Andrew Kelley
	Old: ``` while (condition; expression) {} ``` New: ``` while (condition) : (expression) {} ``` This is in preparation to allow nullable and error union types as the condition. See #357
2017-05-03	remove test and try expressions in favor of if expressions	Andrew Kelley
	See #357
2017-04-22	slicing now returns correct const-ness	Andrew Kelley
	also remove the ability to override constness when slicing closes #334
2017-04-21	update syntax for try and nullable unwrapping	Andrew Kelley
	closes #285
2017-04-21	remove `?return` and `?defer`	Andrew Kelley
	closes #309
2017-04-14	comptime ({}) should not get an implicit semicolon	Josh Wolfe
	closes #292.
2017-04-13	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/parser'	Andrew Kelley

2017-04-13	typedefpocalypse	Andrew Kelley
	closes #314
2017-04-12	block statement lists never get fake expressions	Josh Wolfe
	instead blocks have a field that encodes whether the last statement ended with a semicolon.
2017-04-13	ability to inline at function callsite	Andrew Kelley
	closes #306
2017-04-02	fix else-if parsing	Josh Wolfe
	implicit semicolon rules apply recursively to the "else" clause of if and try if (a) {} else {} // implicit semicolon if (a) {} else if (a) {} // implicit semicolon if (a) {} else while (a) {} // implicit semicolon
2017-04-02	defer without a block body requires a following semicolon	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	add secret void expression after defer statement if it's the last statement ↵	Josh Wolfe
	in a block
2017-04-02	allow implicit semicolon after defer {}	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	variable declarations must be followed by semicolon	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	fix confusion in block expression parsing	Josh Wolfe
	closes #292 * if, try, while, for, comptime, defer are "greedy" with {} blocks, meaning if their bodies are blocks, then no suffix operator is allowed after the block. The {} block gets "built into" the containing statement, like the body of a switch statement. * the Expression syntactic element is no longer "greedy" with {} blocks, meaning it's possible to have suffix operators after {} blocks without needing the {} block to be an rhs operand first.
2017-04-02	Require top-level-declaration comptime use {}	Josh Wolfe
	This forbids `comptime 1 comptime 1` at top-level scope.
2017-03-31	clean up analysis of {blocks}	Josh Wolfe
	* Don't insert void statements all over the place. {} now stays as {} instead of {{}}, and {;} becomes {} instead of {{};{}}. * Ensure final statement is always the return value statement, or the block is empty. This means {label:} becomes {label:{}}.
2017-03-26	replace "&&" and "\|\|" with "and" and "or"	Andrew Kelley
	closes #272
2017-03-26	new unreachable syntax	Andrew Kelley
	* `noreturn` is the primitive type. * `unreachable` is a control flow keyword. * `@unreachable()` builtin function is deleted. closes #214
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.
