# Objective
The current behavior of the git panel is that when you click a file it
will open the multi-buffer view that shows all files with changes. If
you use CMD+Click or CTRL+Click, it will open the solo-file experience
where you only see the diff of the file you have selected. But, there is
no way to customize this behavior.
Related to:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/56152#issuecomment-4641971669
## Solution
This MR adds a setting that allows you to customize the default click
behavior. The alternate behavior will always be accessible via CMD+Click
or CTRL+Click.

Closes #ISSUE
Issue:
- Create and/or modify several files.
- Go to GitPanel.
- Stage files you want to commit.
- Select last entry. You may select not last but make sure after list of
entries shrinks, your selection would be "out of visible list" after.
- Commit.
- Entries will be committed and disappear.
- But it seems like `selected_entry` is not updated (or updated
incorrectly) and Zed still have "hidden" selected entry of the last
selected entry. So you need to `Shift-g` (in vim mode) or some other
keybinding to select last entry manually. I used `k` multiple times
before I realized I can use `Shift-g` or `g g` -,-
Release Notes:
- Fixed: stale index (`selected_entry`) of git panel after .
Notes:
- I basically copied logic of function 1 line above but instead of
`first_entry` I used `last_etnry`. So... It should be harmless.
- I didn't find where selection logic is tested. I tried to do something
using `test_amend` as template, but... I'm afraid I won't be able to
understand if I'm using testing framework correctly.
- I couldn't make tests, but I tried to "test" by hand using something
like this:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8575bdcc-f59b-44f2-99e3-fe663e5e61f1"
/>
Flat View seems like working fine, but Tree View has some "bugs" (if we
can call it like that) inherited. For example, if I stage selected file
and commit it, selection jumps to the `asdjfl` instead of the file right
under - `outer_file`. The same behavior in the current release.

# Objective
Improve the Git panel changes header by making the Stage All / Unstage
All control more consistent with other split-button actions in the Git
panel, such as the Fetch/Pull button.
## Solution
- Replaced the standalone Stage All / Unstage All button with a split
button.
- Kept the primary action context-sensitive, switching between Stage All
and Unstage All.
- Moved related Git change actions into the split-button menu: staging,
stashing, discard tracked changes, and trash untracked files.
## Testing
- Ran `cargo fmt --check`.
- Ran `cargo check -p git_ui`.
- Manually verified the Git panel dropdown behavior in the app.

## Showcase
The Git panel changes header now uses a split button similar to the
Fetch/Pull control. The primary action updates between Stage All and
Unstage All, while the dropdown groups related Git actions.

## Summary
This updates the Git Panel view controls so the panel can independently
model:
- whether entries are shown as a list or tree
- whether flat entries are sorted by path or name
- whether entries are grouped by status or shown as one combined set
It also keeps the Project Diff order consistent with the Git Panel,
including tree ordering, status grouping, and flat name/path sorting.
## Why This Is Useful
The previous sort_by_path boolean overloaded two separate ideas: sorting
and grouping. That made it hard to represent the view users actually
wanted, especially a single tree where tracked and untracked files are
not split into separate sections.
This change replaces that boolean with explicit enum settings:
- git_panel.sort_by: path or name
- git_panel.group_by: none or status
That keeps the settings mutually exclusive, easier to extend, and closer
to the UI model.
## Implementation Notes
- Adds a dedicated Git Panel View Options menu using the sliders icon.
- Moves view, sort, and group controls out of the overflow actions menu.
- Disables sort options in tree view because tree order is folder-first
rather than pure path/name sorting.
- Removes the Tracked heading when grouping is disabled.
- Keeps Git Panel tree expansion state when switching view options.
- Recomputes Project Diff sort prefixes from tree_view, sort_by, and
group_by so diff cards follow the same top-to-bottom order as the Git
Panel.
- Preserves Project Diff open/closed file state across view option
changes by carrying fold state by repo path instead of by synthetic sort
key.
- Updates settings UI renderers and docs for the new enum settings.
## Testing
- [x] cargo fmt --package git_ui --package settings_ui
- [x] cargo check -p git_ui
- [x] Verified settings UI enum dropdown rendering for Git Panel
sort/group settings

# Objective
When reviewing changes in the Git Panel, the only ways to open a file
were through a diff view ("Open Diff" or "Open Diff (File)"). There was
no way to open the file directly in the editor to inspect or edit its
current contents without entering a diff.
This PR adds a **View File** action to the Git Panel changes list
context menu.
## Solution
- Add a `git::ViewFile` action in `crates/git/src/git.rs`, alongside
other per-file git actions like `FileHistory`.
- Wire it into the Git Panel file context menu, between the diff actions
and "View File History".
- Implement `GitPanel::view_file` to resolve the selected entry's repo
path to a project path and open it via `workspace.open_path_preview`,
matching the pattern used in `commit_view::open_file_at_head`.
- Document the new action in `docs/src/git.md`.
### Related issues
- https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/58250
## Testing
- Added three GPUI tests in `git_panel.rs`:
- `test_view_file_tracked` — modified tracked file
- `test_view_file_untracked` — untracked file
- `test_view_file_tree_view` — nested file in tree view
- Ran `cargo test -p git_ui test_view_file` — all three pass.
- Ran `./script/clippy -p git_ui` — clean.
**Manual testing for reviewers:**
1. Open a project with changed files and open the Git Panel.
2. Right-click a changed file and select **View File**.
3. Confirm the file opens in the editor (not a diff view).
4. Repeat for an untracked file and with tree view enabled.
5. Confirm **Open Diff** and **Open Diff (File)** still work.
Tested on macOS only. Linux and Windows should behave the same since
this is a context menu action with no platform-specific code, but I
haven't verified on those platforms.

Update the toast shown after running `git: push` so as to always include
a button to create a pull request for the current branch.
We used to only do this on the initial push, as that is when the output
of running `git push` would include an URL that could be used to create
the Pull Request. However, since we now have a `git: create pull
request`, we can always build this URL, meaning we no longer need to
rely on the command's output in order to display the "Create Pull
Request" button.
Something worth noting is that the
`git_ui::remote_output::format_output` function used to also match on
Bitbucket's terminal output, so these changes include the implementation
of `GitHostingProvider::build_create_pull_request_url` for the
`Bitbucket` provider.

Closes#58653
Release Notes:
- Fix "Loading Commit History..." message in History tab stuck on
projects with empty or no repositories
This is an unsolicited contribution, I hope that's ok. The feature is
small and I didn't want to open a discussion just for this.
There was no way to write to `.git/info/exclude` from Zed, so I added
one.
The "Add to .gitignore" action in the project panel and git panel
context menus is now grouped under a "Git" submenu, with a new "Add to
.git/info/exclude" action next to it.
Both actions:
- skip the write if the pattern is already there
- make sure there's a trailing newline
- show an error toast if something goes wrong
- fail gracefully on remote repositories
In the git panel both entries are disabled unless the file is untracked,
same as the gitignore action was before.
The write logic is shared via a small private helper, covered by two
unit tests.

This migrates the `Workspace::show_error` method to take a generic type
that implements `WorkspaceError` instead. That trait containts methods
to show a proper error message but most importantly means to help with
providing actions given certain errors.
The intention for this is rather easy: Whenever we show an error to the
user on the workspace level, that error should be
- actionable to a degree, even if that is only opening logs or whatnot
- show a message that is understandable to the user
- for not-too-critical errors, should hide after a certain delay and not
force the user to dismiss it using their mouse.
For now, there exist trait implementations for string error types and
anyhow errors. The long term goal here is to get rid of these altogether
and migrate everything to be strongly typed and especially actionable
instead.

## Why
This is the first step in moving the Git Graph work into the Git UI
crate before continuing with follow-up refactors and feature work. The
goal is for Git UI components and shared Git UI helpers to live in one
crate, so future changes to the Git Graph can reuse existing `git_ui`
code instead of duplicating it.
This PR is not only a filesystem move. While moving `git_graph` into
`git_ui`, a few small dependency and helper boundaries had to change:
- `git_graph` and `git_ui` both needed the same remote parsing and
commit tooltip construction behavior, so those pieces are now shared
from `git_ui`.
- `git_graph` previously depended on `project_panel` to resolve
file-history actions from the project panel selection. After moving
`git_graph` into `git_ui`, keeping that dependency would create an
undesirable `git_ui` -> `project_panel` relationship. The
project-panel-specific action forwarding now lives in `project_panel`,
and calls into exported `git_ui::git_graph` helpers instead.
- `git_graph` initialization now happens through `git_ui::init`, so
downstream crates only need to initialize `git_ui`.
This prepares the codebase for the next planned PRs: splitting the large
`git_graph.rs` implementation into smaller pieces, then adding Git Graph
features such as keeping the main branch lane at index `0`.
## License removal
The removed `crates/git_graph/LICENSE-GPL` file was a symlink to the
repository root `LICENSE-GPL`. The moved code is now inside `git_ui`,
which is also licensed as `GPL-3.0-or-later` and has its own
`LICENSE-GPL` symlink to the same root license file. The code did not
move to a differently licensed crate; it remains covered by the same GPL
license.

Hello Zed Team, this is my first contribution. I use Zed every day and
have always wanted to see the total for the plus/minus counts in the Git
diff panel. Here is my attempt to make that happen. Please let me know
if there are any issues and I will fix them. Thank you.
Adds git diff stats to the Git panel so users can see the total number
of added and removed lines while reviewing changes.
Verified locally by compiling and running Zed, then confirming the Git
panel displays the diff count as expected.
Release Notes:
- Improved Git panel diff visibility by showing total added and removed
line counts.

There's currently no way to customize AI-generated commit messages on a
per-commit basis. You can put instructions in AGENTS.md or a project
rules file, but those get fed into every agent interaction, not just
commit generation. The built-in "Commit message" prompt used to be
editable in the Rules Library, but that was replaced by Skills, which
aren't used when generating commit messages.
This PR adds an `agent.commit_message_instructions` setting. Its
contents are added to the commit message prompt in their own section,
alongside any project rules, so you can ask for a specific format
(Conventional Commits, a ticket prefix, etc.) without changing how the
agent behaves elsewhere:
```json
{
"agent": {
"commit_message_instructions": "Use the Conventional Commits format: <type>(<scope>): <description>."
}
}

This changes git panel file activation so double-clicking or
secondary-opening a changed file opens a dedicated full-file diff tab
backed by a `SplittableEditor`.
The per-file diff reuses the project diff staging and restore controls,
respects the configured diff view style, and focuses an existing
per-file diff tab when one is already open instead of creating
duplicates.
Verified with `cargo run`.
Release Notes:
- Improved git panel file diff opening.

This primarily
- requires components to have a description as well as a preview

When creating a git worktree, we now always fetch latest `origin/main`
and create the worktree based on that. If running `git fetch` fails, we
show an error toast with the option to base the worktree of off local
`origin/main`:

- Add a separate `git_commit_buffer_font_size` setting, defaulting to
`12px` (the previous default before it was changed to use the buffer
font size)

Release Notes:
- Added a `git_commit_buffer_font_size` setting and made the in-panel
and modal commit message editors zoomable.
Adds a `runtime_diagnostics` section to the dev-only "Show Git Job
Queue" output so that when the queue gets stuck, we can tell from the
dump itself whether a git subprocess is wedged (and on supported
platforms, where it's wedged) without needing the user to run
`ps`/`sample`/`lsof` by hand.
The new section contains:
- **`processes`** — every transitive descendant of the Zed process, with
PID, PPID, name, executable, full argv, sysinfo status
(`Run`/`Sleep`/`Stop`/`Zombie`/etc.), and elapsed runtime.
Cross-platform via `sysinfo`. This is the single most useful field: it
instantly answers "is there a stuck `git` child or not?"
- **`linux_proc`** *(Linux only)* — for each descendant,
`/proc/<pid>/wchan` (the kernel function the thread is sleeping in, e.g.
`futex_wait_queue`, `pipe_read`) and `State:` from `/proc/<pid>/status`.
- **`macos_git_children`** *(macOS only)* — for any descendant whose
name contains `git`, a 2-second `sample` user-space stack and `lsof -p`
output. Each is included only if the corresponding system binary exists;
otherwise it's skipped.
- Windows gets just `processes` (no portable way to grab another
process's stack).
### Safety
- Cross-platform: only `sysinfo` (an existing workspace dep) is on the
always-compiled path. All `sample`/`lsof`/`/proc` code is behind
`#[cfg(target_os = ...)]` gates, so Windows builds never see those
symbols.
- Every fallible step is handled individually: on error it logs a
warning and the corresponding key is omitted from the JSON. The queue
dump is built and shown the same way whether `gather()` returned a
populated object, an empty object, or partial data.
- Diagnostics gather runs under `cx.background_spawn(...)` so the macOS
`sample` 2-second wait can't block the foreground.
- `sample`/`lsof` output is truncated to 64 KB per process at a UTF-8
char boundary.

- Replace `title.len()` with `title.chars().count()` in the commit title
length check, so the limit is measured in Unicode characters instead of
UTF-8 bytes.
- Applied in two places that share the same logic:
- `crates/git_ui/src/git_panel.rs` — Git panel's inline warning
- `crates/git_ui/src/commit_modal.rs` — commit modal's inline warning
# Why
The commit title length check used str::len(), which returns UTF-8 byte
length rather than character count. As a result, titles containing
multi-byte characters (Japanese, Chinese, emoji, etc.) triggered the
warning far below the configured commit_title_max_length — around 24
characters instead of the default 72.

Release Notes:
- Fixed commit title length check miscounting multi-byte characters as
multiple characters.
Follow-up to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/56743 where we
only show the focused styles in history tab items if you're navigating
it with the keyboard. We were previously flashing the focused border
styles on click and they're not necessary if you're pointer-based.

Follow-up to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/56500. Was
missing this ability very much :)
Release Notes:
- Git Panel: Added the ability to switch between the changes and history
tabs with the keyboard.
This PR adds a history view to the git panel. It draws from similar
implementations of commit listing in other places like the file history
view and the git graph.

This PR makes the empty states of the Git panel a little bit more
polished by making font sizes and button placement more consistent. Also
ended up cleaning up the `panel_button` abstraction as that felt a bit
unnecessary. We're just using the buttons directly like we do in other
places in the codebase.

## Summary
Filenames containing markdown syntax (e.g. `__somefile__`, `*somefile*`)
were being rendered as formatted text in the git discard confirmation
dialog.
Follow-up to #55697 for the git discard confirmation path mentioned in
#53060.
## Changes
Wrapped the git discard confirmation filename with `MarkdownInlineCode`
in `git_panel.rs`, so special markdown characters like `_`, `*`, and `[`
render literally.
## Testing
Added `test_discard_prompt_escapes_markdown_in_file_name` in
`git_panel.rs` to verify filenames with markdown special characters
render literally in the discard confirmation dialog.
Run:
```bash
cargo test -p git_ui test_discard_prompt_escapes_markdown_in_file_name
```
Release Notes:
- Fixed file names containing markdown special characters (e.g.
`__somefile__`) being rendered as formatted text in the git discard
confirmation dialog.

## Summary
Follow-up to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/55352,
where the conclusion was to split `editor.rs` incrementally by topic
instead of all at once.
This mechanically extracts editor config and reflow-related code into
`crates/editor/src/config.rs` and `crates/editor/src/rewrap.rs`, while
preserving existing behavior and keeping externally-used APIs public
where needed.

Closes#55227
Updates the Git panel commit message editor to respect the configured
`buffer_font_size` when using buffer/editor typography. This keeps the
commit box visually consistent with other editor text while preserving
the existing UI-font sizing path for non-buffer panel editor styles.

Release Notes:
- Fixed the Git panel commit message editor ignoring `buffer_font_size`
Using the existing commit editor in the Git Panel to type out longer
commit messages has been somewhat hard. I believe this happens because
it takes a very small portion of the UI which, unfortunately, when `git:
expand commit editor` is used, a modal ends up taking the center of the
editor, making it possible to have the commit editor open on the side,
while the `git: diff` view is open.
As such, this Pull Request introduces a new
`git::ToggleFillCommitEditor` action that allows users to update the
commit editor's height so as to take as much vertical space as possible,
hiding the entries status and simply rendering the Git Panel's footer.
This makes it easier to be able to write longer commit messages while
still having the `git: branch diff` on the side, something that's very
complicated with the default number of lines in the commit editor and
impossible using the `CommitModal`.

When a model produces poor output during commit message generation,
there was no way to cancel it. This replaces the non-interactive spinner
with a Stop button that cancels the generation task. Partial generated
text is kept in the editor.

These changes update Zed's Git Panel to be able to detect unsafe git
repositories, where the user running Zed doesn't own the `.git`
directory, and show a dedicated empty view in the Git Panel that not
only explains the situation but also allows the user to choose whether
to trust this directory, which will end up running `git config --global
--add safe.directory <path>`.
While testing those changes, it was noted that attempting to add or
reset files after trusting the directory would fail, as expected, but
the UI wouldn't react to the fact that those operations failed. What
this means is, if the user tried to add a file, the UI would show a
checkmark for that file and, after the operation failed, the checkmark
would remain. We now revert that, for both `git add` and `git reset`.
Some more technical notes on this change:
- Introduce `project::git_store::GitAccess` enum to express whether we
actually have access to the repository, exposed via
`git::Repository::access`, which probes the backend with a `git status`
command and classifies the result.
- On unsafe repositories,
`project::git_store::LocalRepositoryState::new` fails to spawn the git
worker, which now cleanly signals `GitAccess::No` rather than leaving
the panel in a broken state.
- Updated `git_ui::git_panel::GitPanel::render_empty_state` with a third
alternative, when `GitAccess::No`, that basically renders a view
explaining why the repository is considered unsafe, together with
buttons for git's documentation on safe directories and a button to add
the repository's folder as a safe directory
- Updated `project::git_store::GitStore` to now watch `~/.gitconfig` and
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config`. Watching this files allows the Git Panel
to react when the git configuration is updated, which will be the case
if the user decides to trust the repository. When either changes, a
`GitStoreEvent::GlobalConfigurationUpdated` event is emitted and the
panel refetches repository state.
- Added `project::git_store::Repository::refetch_repo_state` field,
which stores a closure to allow recreating the
`Repository::repository_state` and the job sender after the repository's
directory is trusted, without requiring a project reload.
- Added a `fs::Fs::git_config` trait method, wrapping a real `git
config` invocation. In order to be able to call this, both
`git_store::GitStore::git_config` and `project::Project::git_config`
wrappers have also been introduced. Worth mentioning that this isn't yet
supported for remote projects or collab guests.
- Updated `fs::Fs::git_clone` argument order to match
`fs::Fs::git_config` and `fs::Fs::git_init`.
- Added a new
`project::git_store::pending_op::PendingOps::last_op_errored` method
that allows determining whether the last pending operation failed. This
now allows us to filter out failed operations when determining whether
`git add` or `git reset` failed, so that we can fall through to the real
git status.
- Updated `git_ui::git_panel::GitPanel::change_file_stage` to now call
`update_counts` in its error branch so the cached staged counters stay
consistent with the reverted per-entry state, seeing as we now handle
reverting the UI state if an operation fails.
- Fixed `fs::RealFs::git_init` to fall back to the provided branch name
when `git config --global --get init.defaultBranch` fails, for example,
when the user hsan't configured one.
