This avoids a spurious permission error inside the Postgres
`resolve_symlinks` function if we don’t have access to the current
working directory (e.g. we’re running with cwd /root inside `su
zulip`).
While we’re here, add a defensive `--` argument.

This saves about 8% of the runtime of our total response middleware,
or equivalently close to 2% of the total Tornado response time. Which
is pretty significant given that we're not sure anyone is using statsd
in production.
It's also useful outside Tornado, but the effect is particularly
significant because of how important Tornado performance is.
This avoids parsing these functions on every request, which was
adding roughly 350us to our per-request response times.
The overall impact was more than 10% of basic Tornado response
runtime.
If you topic-edited a single message within a narrow, we would update
all our unreads/sidebar/etc. data structures, and would rerender the
message if appropriate. However, for the corner case of being inside
a topic narrow when you did this, we didn't have logic to remove the
message from the narrow (which is the appropriate situation when you
just topic-edited a message in a narrow).
When topic-editing multiple messages including the currently selected
message (the more common case), we would end up changing the narrow,
resulting in this issue being masked.
Fixes#11601.
The correct behavior here is that we want to ensure there is
whitespace in between the syntax being added and the content on either
side. Our smart_insert logic handled this for the cases that were
common with inserting emoji (etc.), but didn't handle the more complex
cases with "quote and reply".
Fixes#11702.
We'll use this in the push-notifications code, in a context where
there should definitely already be UserMessage rows if everything's
gone normally... but explicitly checking at the top seems like the
right pattern from a secure-coding perspective.
When a bunch of messages with active notifications are all read at
once -- e.g. by the user choosing to mark all messages, or all in a
stream, as read, or just scrolling quickly through a PM conversation
-- there can be a large batch of this information to convey. Doing it
in a single GCM/FCM message is better for server congestion, and for
the device's battery.
The corresponding client-side logic is in zulip/zulip-mobile#3343 .
Existing clients today only understand one message ID at a time; so
accommodate them by sending individual GCM/FCM messages up to an
arbitrary threshold, with the rest only as a batch.
Also add an explicit test for this logic. The existing tests
that happen to cause this function to run don't exercise the
last condition, so without a new test `--coverage` complains.
Accomplished by adding a function to clear the status message with
an empty string. The html is then updated to reflect changes without a
refresh.
Currently, it's a small hassle to clear a status message. This option
makes things a bit easier.
Fixes#11630.
help.github.com seems to have a bug where HEAD on a redirected page
returns 404. This causes tools/test-documentation to fail. Fix it by
skipping the redirects.

This new helper allows us to do the same operation
on every message in our message_store. We will
use this in a future commit to clear the `is_tall`
flags on all messages, after a resize.
We should be somewhat cautious about using this,
but simple operations should be really fast, even
if you have lots of messages in the store.
Previously, if you were in the process of editing the last message in
a narrow and a new message came in, we'd rerender that second-to-last
message, causing your editing widget to lose focus (and thus the next
few keys you typed to be interpreted as keyboard shortcuts, which
had a good chance of resulting in your navigating somewhere random).
This rerendering was essentially unnecessary; the only change to state
going into the rendering process was the next_is_same_sender CSS class
being toggled on the messagebox in the message. So, at most, we
should have been just toggling that CSS class (and this commit makes
us do precisely that).
It seems like we could further improve this code by just removing the
next_is_same_sender CSS class entirely and removing this block, but
I'm leaving that for follow-up work.
Fixes#11656.
This fixes an issue where closing stream search was not working if
user had not entered a search term and tried to close the search box
by clicking on the close icon; the problem was that we'd end up
re-opening the widget immediately after through event propagation.
Fixes: #11636.
The is_editable field includes topic edits, so we need a separate
field for whether to display these icons which are all for content
editing.
