v2.3.0

SUMMARY

This release mainly targets NVIM v0.9's updates: #627. Although we haven't completed all the to-dos yet, all updates that would directly affect user experience have been completed (#680 (comment)).

Breaking Changes

• The 0.7 branch has been deprecated and will not receive any support from now on. Please update your Neovim build as soon as possible.
• The 0.8 branch will continue to receive major bug fixes, but will not accept any new features. As always, we recommend using the latest build when applicable.
• We now support defining multi-mode keymaps at once. Refer to #603 for more information.
• The behavior of handling continuous user input has changed - which-key.nvim will only take over user input after timeoutlen has passed. More information: #625.
• Initial support for LSP Semantic Tokens has been implemented. You may sometimes observe incorrect syntax highlightings - this is expected. Please wait until #676 is merged, this will consummate support for semantic tokens.
• Due to an upstream breaking change, we've made some changes to the appearance and operation (setup) of nvim-cmp. Please refer to #637.
• For new/modified options and their usage, have a look at the upstream release notes for more information.
• Now you may use <A-s> or :SudaWrite to write files with administrator privileges. Windows users must install psutils so that this keymap/command could work properly. More information: #641.

Patches & New Features

• Fixed the issue where terminals (and shell bang :!) are unable to handle Unicode characters on Windows.
• Now hop.nvim can be used in visual mode.
• Added/Modified several core keymaps. [view this patch]
• We now allow customization of transparent_background in settings.lua.
• Now auto-session will remember previously opened buffers.
