Note the headErr/tailErr calls will print stack traces if they fail
(small ones: five lines, one of which is the useful location info),
which may or may not be best UX.
Based on feedback in chat, I added support for several more kinds of
Unicode space character for separating digit groups, both when reading
and when displaying numbers. These are the spaces currently supported,
which are just my best guess at the ones that might show up in CSV files
now and then:
space,
no-break space,
en space,
em space,
punctuation space,
thin space,
narrow no-break space,
medium mathematical space
Parent accounts with no actual or goal amounts would ideally be shown
elided on the same line, but the budget report in tree mode was
omitting them completely. Now --budget always shows them.
The effect is much like forcing --no-elide on, except it might not
show goal amounts that --no-elide does show.
It's not a wonderful fix, but the budget report code is twisty and I
can't afford to spend more time on this.
When reading a symbolically-linked journal file,
relative paths in include directives are now evaluated
relative to the directory of the real linked file,
not the directory of the symlink.
This also seems to fix an obscure case where stats did not report
absolute included file paths in certain circumstances (stdin, maybe no
terminal..)
The previous #2153 fix used accountNameTreeFrom, but it turns out this
has always had O(n^2) performance, so our tests with 10k accounts ran
even slower than before. Now it's faster, the main #2153 slowdown
should really be fixed, and other commands which build an account tree
should also be free of this slowdown when there are very many accounts.
When processing costs and equity postings in transactions during
journal finalisation, we now pass just the conversion account name(s)
rather than the entire map of account types. This slowdown was severe
for some users/data/machines.
The code is a bit clearer, and it no longer discards amounts other
than the first when the running balance contains multiple costs.
(This bug was exposed by the fix for #2039).
They are `balances:` for assertion transactions,
`retain:` for retained earnings transactions,
and `start` for opening/closing transactions.
And some --help cleanups.
On MS Windows, trying to add or import or web add to a file whose name
ends with a dot could cause data loss, so in 2019 I made this raise an
error instead (in Hledger.Read.ensureJournalFileExists).
But, the logic was backward, so it did not do the check on Windows.
Now it does.
Also I have removed mention of this from add's doc; currently it's
not documented anywhere. It's obscure, but maybe this is not ideal.
