### Rationale
While working on #29549, I noticed a lot of inconsistencies in our argparse help messages. This is important for fish where these help messages end up as descriptions in the tab completion menu. See https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/29549#issuecomment-1627596477 for some examples of longer or more stylized help messages.
### Implementation
This PR makes the following changes:
- [x] help messages start with a lowercase letter.
- [x] Help messages do not end with a period
- [x] the first line of a help message is short and simple
longer text is separated by an empty line
- [x] "help messages do not use triple quotes"
"""(except docstrings)"""
- [x] Parentheses not needed for string concatenation inside function call
- [x] Remove "..." "..." string concatenation leftover from black reformatting
- [x] Remove Sphinx argument docs from help messages
The first 2 choices aren't very controversial, and are designed to match the syntax of the `--help` flag automatically added by argparse. The 3rd choice is more up for debate, and is designed to match our package/module docstrings. The 4th choice is designed to avoid excessive newline characters and indentation. We may actually want to go even further and disallow docstrings altogether.
### Alternatives
Choice 3 in particular has a lot of alternatives. My goal is solely to ensure that fish tab completion looks reasonable. Alternatives include:
1. Get rid of long help messages, only allow short simple messages
2. Move longer help messages to epilog
3. Separate by 2 newline characters instead of 1
4. Separate by period instead of newline. First sentence goes into tab completion description
The number of commands with long help text is actually rather small, and is mostly relegated to `spack ci` and `spack buildcache`. So 1 isn't actually as ridiculous as it sounds.
Let me know if there are any other standardizations or alternatives you would like to suggest.
* ci: run spack list in power ci
Let's see if Spack itself is the bottleneck in CI...
* rebuild curl in CI
* more of the same please!
* drop the profiler
* undo rebuildme test in ci variant
* add comment for posterity
* enable profiling
* trigger CI
* See how it goes now that perf regressions are fixed on develop
* try shorter poll intervals
* Revert "try shorter poll intervals"
This reverts commit d60c34ad3eceead0c13a5277cf8e783fd42b7458.
* Remove spec.format call in Database._get_matching_spec_key
* once more in ci please
* undo irrelevant changes
* run spack list in before script
* test in ci
* -:
* Undo CI testing
The spdlog project precisely states/depends which fmt version should
be used for compatibility. Latest version 1.11.0 depends explictly on
fmt 9.1.0. Without fixed version micromamba build fails when using spack
install micromamba on e.g. Rockylinux 8.5.
The 'bison' executable requires libtextstyle to run. I think this was
usually satisfied because gettext is often installed with the OS, or
brought in accidentally via perl/m4.
Looks like the libtextstyle library dependency started in Bison 3.4
Refactor `TermTitle` into `InstallStatus` and use it to show progress
information both in the terminal title as well as inline. This also
turns on the terminal title status by default.
The inline output will look like the following after this change:
```
==> Installing m4-1.4.19-w2fxrpuz64zdq63woprqfxxzc3tzu7p3 [4/4]
```
* llvm: fix build with libcxx=none
* ispc: checksum 1.20.0
* ispc: ensure that it does not crash immediately
this would happen if linked to the wrong libc++
* ispc: fix build on macos
find ncurses instead of curses and link against tinfo in order to avoid
unresolved references to _del_curterm, _set_curterm, _setupterm, and
_tigetnum
* ispc: enable arm targets, if building on arm
* ispc: remove double cmake argument
I forgot to remove the constant -DARM_ENABLED=FALSE when adding
-DARM_ENABLED with a value depending on target architecture
* ispc: fix linux build
since 1.20, linux build uses TBB as default tasking system and thus
needs to depend on it
* ispc: try to fix link error on linux
link against both curses (as before) and tinfo (added because of macos)
* ispc: update for recent llvm changes
libcxx=none instead of ~libcxx
`mypy` will check *all* imported packages, even optional dependencies outside your
project, and this can cause issues if you are targeting python versions *older* than the
one you're running in. `mypy` will report issues in the latest versions of dependencies
as errors even if installing on some older python would have installed an older version
of the dependency.
We saw this problem before with `numpy` in #34732. We've started seeing it with IPython
in #38704. This fixes the issue by exempting `IPython` and a number of other imports of
Spack's from `mypy` checking.
* Setting library path as lib similar to other rocm packages.
* Fix style check failure
* Restricting changes to 5.4.3 and above
* Including comgr change
* initial commit for adding hip-examples package
* adding test to hip-examples
* fixed compile error on add4
* change standalone test to use new syntax
