Bug with @nest and &

[alexander-akait]

Input:

.de {
    @nest
    .cd:not(:hover, :focus) & {
        & .fg {
            color: red;
        }
    }
}

Output:

.de .cd:not(:hover .fg

:focus) .de .fg

Expected:

.de

.cd:not(:hover):not(:focus) .de

.cd:not(:hover):not(:focus) .de .fg

Original issue: stylelint/stylelint#2453

@evilebottnawi: I spent some time this morning trying to sort this out ... posted PR #2 with my progress — but it's not there yet. Would you like to take over ownership of this module? I am not interested in nesting in CSS, and would rather this module were maintained by someone who is.

[alexander-akait]

@davidtheclark I would be happy to help but it is also extremely loaded, we can try it contribute together when someone has time

Are you open to moving this package to the @csstools org?

We already have a bunch of packages related to CSS selectors and nesting : https://github.com/csstools/postcss-plugins/tree/main/packages

We don't mind maintaining this as there are still quite some dependents and improving this package would allow us to resolve some bugs in Stylelint.

Given recent events I understand any hesitation around changes in maintainers or owners but this would not be a new vector, packages maintained by the @csstools org are already everywhere. Having a centralized place of work reduces the amount of (unpaid) work for us.

@romainmenke I am happy to transfer ownership. Since I cannot send it directly to the csstools org, should I transfer to you, @romainmenke, and you can take it from there?

[romainmenke]

Awesome! Thank you for being open to this @davidtheclark 🙇
We will take good care of it.

Yes, transferring to me, as an intermediate step, is ok :)

[romainmenke]

Almost forgot, my npm username is also romainmenke, but if possible to transfer to orgs directly then it would be csstools

[romainmenke]

Transfer is complete 🎉

This has been resolved.

Also updated all dependencies, migrated to GitHub Actions, ...

We can no longer test against postcss-nesting as the spec has changed too much and it no long aligns with postcss-nested.
