canonicalize_output_name allowed the "primary" special output name to
be canonicalized, thus converting it to the name of whatever output
was the primary output at the time. This caused settings
(specifically, i3bar output and tray_output settings) to be stored as
specific output names, instead of the intended special names whose
referred output may change as the system's configuration (i.e. current
primary output) changes.
Add a check to canonicalize_output_name to return the name as-is if it
is the special name "primary".
This fixes a regression introduced in commit
4e88c10564ca5366c2578908f62ec56625a26718: when attempting to move the
single child of a container in the direction of another output, i3
would move the window to the output, despite the window not being at
the edge of its output, instead of moving it to its parent container.
The bug occurred because the check for moving containers across
outputs with non-default workspace layouts (issue #1603) did not
actually verify that the moved window lies at the edge of the
workspace, despite what its comment said.
Fixes issue #2466.
Makes "assign [<criteria>] workspace number <number>" work in the same
manner as "move to workspace number <number>" instead of assigning the
window to a workspace named "number <number>".
config.spec is modified to expect a 'number' string and an extra
argument is used in cfg_assign.
For workspaces that don't exist yet, workspace_get is used as a
fallback. This also allows the user to assign to "<number> <workspace>"
eg "2: work" and the full name will be used if workspace number 2
doesn't exist yet.
Fixes#2590.
This way you can assign the test windows to an empty workspace to avoid
interacting with them (when xvfb-run is not an option):
assign [instance="i3test"] workspace testing
I previously tried to fix the check, but could only come up with a fix which
required removing our module pre-loading, which makes the tests considerably
more expensive. Instead, let’s just remove the check.
The test runs `xrandr setmonitor`, which will otherwise affect any test
scheduled after 533-randr15.t, causing flakyness in t/217-NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP.t
for example.
$config is never touched after being initially set up.
Not restarting i3 between each test case reduces the runtime of this test by an
order of magnitude.
This introduces memory usage by one copy of the config file, which is an
acceptable trade-off for being able to easily revert data loss.
The default config is 6KB, user configs will be in the same ballpark.

This patch fixes the issue #2802 (https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/2802).
1). Revise the state machine for the 'rename workspace' command.
These scenarios are considered:
a). 'rename workspace to to bla'
state transitions: RENAME -> RENAME_WORKSPACE -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_LIKELY_TO -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_LIKELY_TO_NEW_NAME
b). 'rename workspace to tosomething'
state transitions: RENAME -> RENAME_WORKSPACE -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_LIKELY_TO
c). 'rename workspace to to'
state transitions: RENAME -> RENAME_WORKSPACE -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_LIKELY_TO
d). 'rename workspace to bla'
state transitions: RENAME -> RENAME_WORKSPACE -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_LIKELY_TO
e). 'rename workspace bla to foo'
state transitions: RENAME -> RENAME_WORKSPACE -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_TO -> RENAME_WORKSPACE_TO_NEW_NAME
2). Add a test case in 117-workspace.t for the scenario b.
Subset comparison was introduced with the rather large commit
bf3cd41b5d, but I now think we should use
equality.
In other words, the following key binding:
bindsym Mod4+x nop Mod4+x
previously would have been triggered when pressing Mod3+Mod4+x.
Strictly speaking, this is a change of behavior, but it breaks none of our
tests, and using equality instead of subset comparison enables more use-cases.
