- When a line has only increased in indent depth, don't red-fill highlight the left side of the diff. Since reading a diff //mostly// involves focusing on the right side, indent depth changes are generally visible enough without this extra hint. The extra hint can become distracting in cases where there is a large block of indent depth changes.
- Move the markers slightly to the left, to align them with the gutter.
- Make them slightly opaque so they're a little less prominent.

Summary:
Ref T13258. The general idea here is "if arc land prompted you and you hit 'y', you get a warning about it on the timeline".
This is similar to the existing warning about landing revisions in the wrong state and hitting "y" to get through that. See D18808, previously.
These warnings make it easier to catch process issues at a glance, especially because the overall build status is now more complicated (and may legally include some failures on tests which are marked as unimportant).
The transaction stores which builds had problems, but I'm not doing anything to render that for now. I think you can usually figure it out from the UI already; if not, we could refine this.
Test Plan:
- Used `bin/differential attach-commit` to trigger extraction/attachment.
- Attached a commit to a revision with various build states, and various build plan "Warn When Landing" flags.
- Got sensible warnings and non-warnings based on "Warn When Landing" setting.

Summary:
Depends on D20219. Ref T13258. Ref T11415. Installs sometimes have long-running builds or unimportant builds which they may not want to hold up drafts, affect buildable status, or warn during `arc land`.
Some builds have side effects (like deployment or merging) and are not idempotent. They can cause problems if restarted.
In other cases, builds are isolated and idempotent and generally safe, and it's okay for marketing interns to restart them.
To address these cases, add "Behaviors" to Build Plans:
- Hold Drafts: Controls how the build affects revision promotion from "Draft".
- Warn on Land: Controls the "arc land" warning.
- Affects Buildable: Controls whether we care about this build when figuring out if a buildable passed or failed overall.
- Restartable: Controls whether this build may restart or not.
- Runnable: Allows you to weaken the requirements to run the build if you're confident it's safe to run it on arbitrary old versions of things.
NOTE: This only implements UI, none of these options actually do anything yet.

Mostly poked around the UI. I'll actually implement these behaviors next, and vet them more thoroughly.

Ref T13121. When you connect to a host with SSH, don't already know the host key, and don't have strict host key checking, it prints "Permanently adding host X to known hosts". This is super un-useful.
In a perfect world, we'd probably always have strict host key checking, but this is a significant barrier to configuration/setup and I think not hugely important (MITM attacks against SSH hosts are hard/rare and probably not hugely valuable). I'd imagine a more realistic long term approach is likely optional host key checking.
For now, try using `LogLevel=ERROR` instead of `LogLevel=quiet` to suppress this error. This should be strictly better (since at least some messages we want to see are ERROR or better), although it may not be perfect (there may be other INFO messages we would still like to see).
Test Plan:
- Ran `ssh -o LogLevel=... -o 'StrictHostKeyChecking=no' -o 'UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null'` with bad credentials, for "ERROR", "quiet", and default ("INFO") log levels.
- With `INFO`, got a warning about adding the key, then an error about bad credentials (bad: don't want the key warning).
- With `quiet`, got nothing (bad: we want the credential error).
- With `ERROR`, got no warning but did get an error (good!).
Not sure this always gives us exactly what we want, but it seems like an improvement over "quiet".

Ref T12822. Ref T2495. This is the good version of D20193.
Currently, we display various nonprintable characters (ZWS, nonbreaking space, various control characters) as themselves, so they're generally invisible.
In T12822, one user reports that all their engineers frequently type ZWS characters into source somehow? I don't really believe this (??), and this should be fixed in lint.
That said, the only real reason not to show these weird characters in a special way was that it would break copy/paste: if we render ZWS as "🐑", and a user copy-pastes the line including the ZWS, they'll get a sheep.
At least, they would have, until D20191. Now that this whole thing is end-to-end Javascript magic, we can copy whatever we want.
In particular, we can render any character `X` as `<span data-copy-text="Y">X</span>`, and then copy "Y" instead of "X" when the user copies the node. Limitations:
- If users select only "X", they'll get "X" on their clipboard. This seems fine. If you're selecting our ZWS marker *only*, you probably want to copy it?
- If "X" is more than one character long, users will get the full "Y" if they select any part of "X". At least here, this only matters when "X" is several spaces and "Y" is a tab. This also seems fine.
- We have to be kind of careful because this approach involves editing an HTML blob directly. However, we already do that elsewhere and this isn't really too hard to get right.
With those tools in hand:
- Replace "\t" (raw text / what gets copied) with the number of spaces to the next tab stop for display.
- Replace ZWS and NBSP (raw text) with a special marker for display.
- Replace control characters 0x00-0x19 and 0x7F, except for "\t", "\r", and "\n", with the special unicode "control character pictures" reserved for this purpose.

Summary:
Ref T12822. Ref T13161. By default, when users select text from a diff and copy it to the clipboard, they get both sides of the diff and all the line numbers. This is usually not what they intended to copy.
As of D20188, we use `content: attr(...)` to render line numbers. No browser copies this text, so that fixes line numbers.
We can use "user-select" CSS to visually prevent selection of line numbers and other stuff we don't want to copy. In Firefox and Chrome, "user-select" also applies to copied text, so getting "user-select" on the right nodes is largely good enough to do what we want.
In Safari, "user-select" is only visual, so we always need to crawl the DOM to figure out what text to pull out of it anyway.
In all browsers, we likely want to crawl the DOM anyway because this will let us show one piece of text and copy a different piece of text. We probably want to do this in the future to preserve "\t" tabs, and possibly to let us render certain character codes in one way but copy their original values. For example, we could render "\x07" as "␇".
Finally, we have to figure out which side of the diff we're copying from. The rule here is:
- If you start the selection by clicking somewhere on the left or right side of the diff, that's what you're copying.
- Otherwise, use normal document copy rules.
So the overall flow here is:
- Listen for clicks.
- When the user clicks the left or right side of the diff, store what they clicked.
- When a selection starts, and something is actually selected, check if it was initiated by clicking a diff. If it was, apply a visual effect to get "user-select" where it needs to go and show the user what we think they're doing and what we're going to copy.
- (Then, try to handle a bunch of degenerate cases where you start a selection and then click inside that selection.)
- When a user clicks elsewhere or ends the selection with nothing selected, clear the selection mode.
- When a user copies text, if we have an active selection mode, pull all the selected nodes out of the DOM and filter out the ones we don't want to copy, then stitch the text back together. Although I believe this didn't work well in ~2010, it appears to work well today.
Test Plan: This mostly seems to work in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. T12822 has some errata. I haven't tested touch events but am satisfied if the touch event story is anything better than "permanently destroys data".

Summary:
Ref T12822. The next change hits these warnings but I think neither is a net positive.
The "function called before it is defined" error alerts on this kind of thing:
```
function a() {
b();
}
function b() {
}
a();
```
Here, `b()` is called before it is defined. This code, as written, is completely safe. Although it's possible that this kind of construct may be unsafe, I think the number of programs where there's unsafe behavior here AND the whole thing doesn't immediately break when you run it at all is very very small.
Complying with this warning is sometimes impossible -- at least without cheating/restructuring/abuse -- for example, if you have two functions which are mutually recursive.
Although compliance is usually possible, it forces you to define all your small utility functions at the top of a behavior. This isn't always the most logical or comprehensible order.
I think we also have some older code which did `var a = function() { ... }` to escape this, which I think is just silly/confusing.
Bascially, this is almost always a false positive and I think it makes the code worse more often than it makes it better.
---
The "unused function parameter" error warns about this:
```
function onevent(e) {
do_something();
```
We aren't using `e`, so this warning is correct. However, when the function is a callback (as here), I think it's generally good hygiene to include the callback parameters in the signature (`onresponse(response)`, `onevent(event)`, etc), even if you aren't using any/all of them. This is a useful hint to future editors that the function is a callback.
Although this //can// catch mistakes, I think this is also a situation where the number of cases where it catches a mistake and even the most cursory execution of the code doesn't catch the mistake is vanishingly small.
Test Plan: Egregiously violated both rules in the next diff. Before change: complaints. After change: no complaints.

Summary:
Ref T13161. Ref T12822. Today, we use invisible Zero-Width Spaces to try to improve copy/paste behavior from Differential.
After D20188, we no longer need ZWS characters to avoid copying line numbers. Get rid of these secret invisible semantic ZWS characters completely.
This means that both the left-hand and right-hand side of diffs become copyable, which isn't desired. I'll fix that with a hundred thousand lines of Javascript in the next change: this is a step toward everything working better, but doesn't fix everything yet.
Test Plan:
- Grepped for `zws`, `grep -i zero | grep -i width`.
- Copied text out of Differential: got both sides of the diff (not ideal).

Summary:
Ref T13161. Ref T12822. See PHI870. Long ago, the web was simple. You could leave your doors unlocked, you knew all your neighbors, crime hadn't been invented yet, and `<th>3</th>` was a perfectly fine way to render a line number cell containing the number "3".
But times have changed!
- In PHI870, this isn't good for screenreaders. We can't do much about this, so switch to `<td>`.
- In D19349 / T13105 and elsewhere, this `::after { content: attr(data-n); }` approach seems like the least bad general-purpose approach for preventing line numbers from being copied. Although Differential needs even more magic beyond this in the two-up view, this is likely good enough for the one-up view, and is consistent with other views (paste, harbormaster logs, general source display) where this technique is sufficient on its own.
The chance this breaks //something// is pretty much 100%, but we've got a week to figure out what it breaks. I couldn't find any issues immediately.
Test Plan:
- Created, edited, deleted inlines in 1-up and 2-up views.
- Replied, keyboard-navigated, keyboard-replied, drag-selected, poked and prodded everything.
