*	Avoid excessive name pollution in test files	Roberto Ierusalimschy	2022-12-28	1	-2/+4
\| \| \| \| \|	Test files are more polite regarding the use of globals when locals would do, and when globals are necessary deleting them after use.

*	Removed internal cache for closures	Roberto Ierusalimschy	2018-11-01	1	-7/+6
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The mechanism of "caching the last closure created for a prototype to try to reuse it the next time a closure for that prototype is created" was removed. There are several reasons: - It is hard to find a natural example where this cache has a measurable impact on performance. - Programmers already perceive closure creation as something slow, so they tend to avoid it inside hot paths. (Any case where the cache could reuse a closure can be rewritten predefining the closure in some variable and using that variable.) - The implementation was somewhat complex, due to a bad interaction with the generational collector. (Typically, new closures are new, while prototypes are old. So, the cache breaks the invariant that old objects should not point to new ones.)
*	Added directory to test file names in '$Id:'	Roberto Ierusalimschy	2018-07-25	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	From the point of view of 'git', all names are relative to the root directory of the project. So, file names in '$Id:' also should be relative to that directory: the proper name for test file 'all.lua' is 'testes/all.lua'.
*	Added manual and tests for version 5.4-w2	Roberto Ierusalimschy	2018-07-09	1	-0/+271
