The current implementation handles server messages in various different places. The sidebar does a lot of it. There are also many levels of `send_message`, `send_request`, `send_chat_message`-type methods that all do kind-of the same thing and (IMO) redundant and confusing. - add `.deps` to gitignore. - remove `deps` from git history - remove the `EcaServerStatus` command and the corresponding server status functionality. I don't think it adds anything and makes the server more complex. We could always add it back in. - remove `rpc.lua`, all of that functionality lives in `server.lua` now. - remove `eca.status_bar` - schedule some functions when we are in a fast event context, used in logging and in UI functions that change the state of a buffer, for example - server has `on_start`, `on_initialized`, `on_stop` callbacks - `server:stop()` sends a `shutdown` and `exit` request to ECA, or sends SIGTERM - `server:start()` uses `vim.system` instead of `jobstart` and `chan_send` - all message handling is done in `server.on_stdout()` which can delegate to other handlers - pathfinder can be injected into the server constructor - `message_handler.lua` parses incoming message from the server - `handle_content` still calls out to sidebar but that will be refactored out later - add tests

Curious why excluding a local eca folder, I believe most of config could just go at ~/.config/eca/config.json?

rpc.lua, all of that functionality lives inserver.luanow.eca.status_barlogging and in UI functions that change the state of a buffer, for
