NEW FEATURES                                                    *news-features*

The following new APIs or features were added.

• |vim.secure.trust()|, |:trust| allows the user to manage files in trust
  database.

• |vim.diagnostic.open_float()| (and therefore |vim.diagnostic.config()|) now
  accepts a `suffix` option which, by default, renders LSP error codes.
  Similarly, the `virtual_text` configuration in |vim.diagnostic.config()| now
  has a `suffix` option which does nothing by default.

• |vim.secure.read()| reads a file and prompts the user if it should be
  trusted and, if so, returns the file's contents.

• When using Nvim inside tmux 3.2 or later, the default clipboard provider
  will now copy to the system clipboard. |provider-clipboard|

• 'splitkeep' option to control the scroll behavior of horizontal splits.

• |nvim_select_popupmenu_item()| now supports |cmdline-completion| popup menu.

• |'diffopt'| now includes a `linematch` option to enable a second-stage diff
  on individual hunks to provide much more accurate diffs. This option is also
  available to |vim.diff()|

  See https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/14537.

• `filetype.vim` is removed in favor of |lua-filetype|
