* bug#44834: 27.1; Tcl mode enforces bad indentation following proc within a namespace

It seems as though an incorrect indentation level is sometimes detected
by Tcl mode. An easy (and commonly used) example is a proc defined in a
namespace: the third line which defines p2 incorrectly wants to indent
into the wrong position:

namespace eval ns {
    proc p1 {} {}
proc p2 {} {}
}

Spreading braces over more lines has the same issue:

namespace eval ns {
    proc p1 {} {
        # ...
    }
proc p2 {} {
    # ...
}
}

The issues seems very specific to detection of the proc, commenting the
first proc delays the problem:

namespace eval ns {
    # proc p1 {} {}
    proc p2 {} {}
proc p3 {} {}
}

...as does using something other than a proc at the start of the
namespace:

namespace eval ns {
    variable x {}
    proc p1 {} {}
proc p2 {} {}
}

I believe the problem originates from this commit:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/lisp/progmodes/tcl.el?id=cd5bb4bf3dbad8941d25823f398b595b8f0edbb9

To re-create the problem in a new buffer:

1. enter Tcl mode:

M-x tcl-mode

2. paste this text:

namespace eval ns {
    proc p1 {} {}
    proc p2 {} {}
}

3. move point to anywhere on line 3 and press tab

Just a note that this bug makes the current tcl-mode practically unusable
for anyone writing more than a basic single-file script. I'm not sure
'minor' is the correct severity. Can it be changed to 'normal' and would it
be possible to alert the maintainer, who I imagine must not be aware of the
impact of his commits last year?

Apologies, the patch was munged by gmail even in plain text mode. It
should not be applied.

Thanks; applied to Emacs 28 (but marked the test as failing).

This change was small enough to apply without assigning copyright to the
FSF, but for future patches you want to submit, it might make sense to
get the paperwork started now, so that subsequent patches can be applied
speedily. Would you be willing to sign such paperwork?

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 668 bytes --]

This patch corrects the problem by partially backing out changes
introduced in this commit 2 1/2 years ago:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/lisp/progmodes/tcl.el?id=cd5bb4bf3dbad8941d25823f398b595b8f0edbb9

The patch removes the customized tcl-beginning-of-defun-function in
favor of relying on the existing lisp mechanism. It preserves the
customized tcl-end-of-defun-function because that is required for some
test cases.

The expected-failing test was marked as succeeding.

This is a minor change. I did not refer to any code outside of emacs
itself in investigating and correcting this bug. I will not be able to
provide additional paperwork.

The change is unfortunately too big to apply without a copyright
assignment to the FSF.  Are you willing to sign such paperwork?

On further thoughts, I am not willing to complete the paperwork
requested to assign copyright to the FSF. Instead, I waive all
interest in this patch by adopting the CC0 public domain waiver. I
have posted a shortened form of the patch (without the test/ diff) and
waiver to:

  https://gist.github.com/anticrisis/08ca7e7e5a66a4c9d4b445cde7ed75b4

in the hopes that it will be useful to those in the emacs community
who use tcl-mode.

There are like 2 new [non-empty] lines in there.

If someone contributes just 2 nontrivial lines, we can treat it as a
trivial change.

I have not looked at the patch or the problem it fixes.
But I can say something about the issue of its copyright.

We can use the program if it is under CC0, but would you
please send the FSF a paper affirming that?

Also, do you have an employer that might claim copyright on it?

It really is a tiny change, and I explain the rationale in an earlier
comment on this bug report, it would take five minutes for anyone else
to read the explanation and make the same code change. I placed the
CC0 disclaimer using the Creative Commons CC0 tool directly on the
gist at github I posted earlier. I'm afraid any paperwork would
require my real name and signature, which I'm not willing to give. And
I am self-employed. I don't need attribution, I just hope the official
version of tcl-mode can be improved for everyone.

Oh, I thought the rule was "15 lines of non-trivial changes", not "15
lines of non-trivial new code"...  (The patch in question mostly just
removes code.)

Let's see...  From CONTRIBUTE:

----
Once the cumulative amount of your submissions exceeds about 15 lines
of non-trivial changes, we will need you to assign to the FSF the
copyright for your contributions. 
----

So if code removal doesn't count, then perhaps this should be rephrased?

It can surely be improved, to say that lines deleted or totally replaced don't
count.

However, trying to make it a completely clear and precise statement
is a misguided goal.

I've now changed "changes" to "code", and I'll apply the patch.

what is "trivial."

Please put in

   about 10 new or modified nontrivial lines of code.  (A line with
   a symbol is nontrivial.)

FTR, the text now says:

  Once the cumulative amount of your submissions exceeds about 15 lines
  of non-trivial code you added or changed (not counting deleted lines),
  we will need you to assign to the FSF the copyright for your
  contributions.  Ask on emacs-devel@gnu.org, and we will send you the
  necessary form together with the instructions to fill and email it, in
  order to start this legal paperwork.

Why remove the note about not counting deleted lines?  I agree that in
principle "new or modified" covers that, but how many readers will
immediately understand that "modified" doesn't include "deleted"?  I
put that there to make it clear; is there a reason not to say that
explicitly?

I don't quite understand what you mean by "if a line contains a symbol".
Do you mean that strings or comments don't count?

Yes, "non-blank lines added/changed" seems preferable, simply because it
is clear and unambiguous.

 - I think Richard may have implied that a line with a symbol is a
   sufficient condition for nontriviality, but it isn't clear if
   intended it to be a necessary condition. I suspect he meant
   "sufficient", but I think many people would interpret it as a
   "necessary" condition.

 - The meaning of "symbol" is not immediately clear in non-lisp code
   such as C, makefiles, scripts, etc.

 - If a commit completely rewrites a long comment or doc string, should
   it be considered "trivial" for the purposes of copyright?

The idea is to count lines in the new version which are added or
modified.  If that is clear, you will see that it doesn't count
anything from the old versin.

If that is not clear, we do need to clarify it.  But real
clarification calls for more than "deleted lines don't count".  It's,
"Don't count _anything_ from the old code; count only the added and
modified lines in the _patched_ code."

No.  I meant to say that even one symbol on a line maks it nontrivial.
But you're right that strings and comments count.  So do numbers.

Preferably, instructions like this shouldn't be brain teasers, but state
(even redundantly) what the terms are.

The problem is that most modern comparison tools show diffs where
there are no "changed" lines (the "!" mark of "diff -c"), they only
show "-" and "+", i.e. as if the edit distance is a sequence of just 2
operations: delete and add.  So "changed" doesn't have a clear and

That's clear enough.  How about this text:

  Once the cumulative amount of your submissions exceeds about 10 lines
  of non-trivial changes, we will need you to assign to the FSF the
  copyright for your contributions.  (To see how many lines were
  non-trivially changed, count only added and modified lines in the
  patched code.  An added or changed line is non-trivial if it includes
  at least one identifier.)  Ask on emacs-devel@gnu.org, and we will
  send you the necessary form together with the instructions to fill and
  email it, in order to start this legal paperwork.

Empty lines are clearly trivial, but what other examples of trivial
lines exist?  Should we say "non-empty lines"?

I think we should also usually discount the cases of moving code around.

If a line was removed in one place and an exact same line added in 
another, it's not really new code.

A line with just braces, or parentheses, or just a few operators,
can be taken as trivial.

There is no precise rule here.

That seems inconvenient, in general.  Why do they do that?

But it doesn't matter at all for this one purpose.

                                 So "changed" doesn't have a clear and

When you're counting the added or changed lines, it should not matter
whether the tool distinguishs added lines from changed lines.
If it labels them all with +, you can still count them.

Richard asked to change it to 10.

AFAIU, what CONTRIBUTE says is just a conservative threshold, above
which human judgment is required.  After all, how much of creative
value is there in any given code is not something one can estimate by
just counting lines.

If people were counting both old and new code in the patch, and now they
are counting just new code, the total should be smaller.

I was counting that way, but it doesn't sound like Eli was (and I don't
know whether anybody else was).  So if that's the reason for lowering
the number of lines, it should be changed back to 15 again.

I have been accepting patches from users for years, both into Emacs 
proper and into several GNU ELPA packages.

So I think the text should go back to "15" unless Richard has a better
explanation for the change.

Would it be good enough to say "about 10" instead?  The exact number

actually do ask).

Or for a number between 10 and 15 - "a dozen".

Yes, "a dozen" would also be good, IMO.

I can't follow your reasoning.  Why is Dmitri's own interpretation

"a dozen or so" could be good.
