No problem, I guess, but sure you don't want "Semantic Versioning"
stuff?  Also, why only that one ? Any reason why I shouldn't _also_ use
0.1 for eldoc.el and xref.el?

Regardless, I have two serious-ish problems here:

1. xref and project.el have a cyclic dependency.  xref.el depends
  (properly) on project.el but it seems project.el also depends on
  xref.el.


     (defun project--files-in-directory (dir ignores &optional files)
       (require 'find-dired)
       (require 'xref)
       (defvar find-name-arg)


   How should I fix this? Any ideas? Or should I be creative?

2. It'd be nice if both xref.el and project.el were available for Emacs
   26.3.  But project.el in Emacs master depends on fileloop.el, which
   in turn depends on generator.el. OK? Should I make both fileloop.el
   and generator.el :core packages, too?

   Or should I bite the bullet and let them stay on 27.1.  In that case,
   Eglot will soon start requiring Emacs 27.1 only, but I wouldn't mind
   giving some support to Eglot on 26.3.

I think we should indicate its current pre-release status somehow.

They seem more stable.

Are cyclic dependencies a problem for package.el? I'm not sure.

fileloop is new, but generator.el has been there since Emacs 25, IIUC.

fileloop could also be an optional dependency, considering it's only 
required by a couple of commands.

Sounds fair.

OK

No idea either.  I think it shouldn't be too bad, since the potential
loads happen at runtime.  Stefan?

Unfortunately fileloop.el requires a generator.el variable that is not
in the generator.el of Emacs 26.3, iter-empty.

Works for me!  But then the comment up there should read:

   ;;; project.el --- Operations on the current project  -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
   ...
   ;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "26.3"))
    
   ;; This is a GNU ELPA :core package.  Don't use functionality that is
   ;; not compatible with the version of Emacs recorded above, or avoid
   ;; that such functionality is compiled by default in that version.

Which would make this a question of an eval-when-compile + some version
check.  Unfortunately, the two definitions

   ;;;###autoload
   (defun project-search (regexp)

   ;;;###autoload
   (defun project-query-replace-regexp (from to)

Are autoloaded, as you can see.  Maybe I can just make the definitions
fail.

João

IIUC a significant part of project's functionality works fine without
xref, so you could consider that project does not Package-Require
`xref`.

Also it's worth checking if it depend on a *recent* version of xref, or
if it also work with the xref that comes with Emacs-26 or even Emacs-25.

Another option is to bundle them into a single package (`:core` packages
can be composed of several files, see `soap-client` for an example).

This dependency is of no real importance: it's only used to provide the
two commands `project-search` and `project-query-replace-regexp` for
which there are many alternatives anyway.  So I wouldn't worry about it.
We could simply change the code to test (fboundp
'fileloop-initialize-replace) and signal a cleaner error (mentioning
that these commands only work in Emacs≥27) than "void-function".

I don't know if that's true: project--files-in-directory is used a lot. 
For example, in the default impl of project-files (used to "transient" 
projects, as well as arbitrary user-defined projects that don't create 
their own implementation).

xref.el could be used without project.el, though (only the default 
xref-backend-references impl uses it, that code is old, and we could 
even make a point not to change it much in the future).
