Neovim prebuilt dependencies

This is a write-only repo of third-party dependencies for use by the Neovim CI build.

• src/
  • Cache of dependency sources.
  • https://github.com/neovim/deps/tree/master/src is an auto-updated snapshot of the .deps/build/src/ produced by the Neovim make deps build task.
    • Hint: Use this with USE_EXISTING_SRC_DIR=ON to perform an "offline" build.
  • Auto-updated by GitHub actions whenever a dependency is added or bumped in CMakeLists.txt.
  • Used by the unstable PPA. PPA builds aren't allowed network access, so a pre-build step fetches this repo to use as input to the build to ensure we have the latest dependencies.
• opt/
  • Manually-managed dependencies (not auto-updated because the origin is unreliable).

Bumping dependency versions

The Makefile automatically performs the necessary steps to download and package dependencies as needed. Run make <dependency> to package a single dependency and just make to package all of them.

We vendored re.lua; remember to update it in the neovim repository when bumping the lpeg version.
