Ben Kunkle 229450844d git: Move diff hunk operations onto buffer diffs (#63556)
# Objective

Keep Git-specific diff-base knowledge in `GitStore`, where Git
operations are defined.

Related to FR-135.

## Solution

Give each `BufferDiff` its supported hunk operations. Keep editor hooks
limited to rendering custom controls.

Enzo GAZZOLIandKirill Bulatov e3056061d4 Render control characters in tab titles and project panel entries (#62875)
# Objective

Fixes #62664

File names may contain control characters (`\n`, `\r`, `\t`, …) on most
platforms. Zed rendered them verbatim, so a file named `notes\ndraft.md`
broke the layout of its tab and of its project panel entry instead of
showing a readable name. The same held anywhere else a name reached the
screen without going through `Label::single_line`.

## Solution

The substitution lives in one shared place,
`ui::utils::replace_control_characters`, reached through
`Label::single_line`. `\n` keeps rendering as the `⏎` Zed already used,
so nothing that renders correctly today changes; every other C0 control
character maps onto the Unicode "Control Pictures" block by a single
rule (`U+2400 + code point`), giving `␉` for tab and `␍` for carriage
return. `DEL` maps to `␡`. C1 controls are left alone, having no
equivalent there.

Where that is wired in:

- **`Label::single_line`** — replaces its previous `\n`-only
substitution. The project panel already used it everywhere, including
folded directory components, so the panel is fixed by this alone.
- **Editor tabs** and the **default `Item::tab_content`**, neither of
which called `single_line`.
- **Terminal tab titles**, which render through their own `tab_content`.
Those titles come from OSC escape sequences, so the control characters
in them are attacker-controlled.
- **`HighlightedLabel::single_line`**, which never substituted anything
— not even `\n`. See below.
- **The file finder**, for both the file name and the path.
- **Nine `tab_content` overrides in git_ui**, by deleting them.
- **`HighlightedMatchWithPaths`**, for both the match label and its
paths — it backs the tab switcher and the outline panel, among others.

### `HighlightedLabel` needs its offsets moved, not just its text

Its highlight indices are byte offsets, and every stand-in is wider in
bytes than the character it replaces, so the offsets have to move with
the text. Left alone they index into the middle of a character, and
`highlight_ranges` slices the string at exactly those offsets — which
panics in release builds too. The constructor's `debug_panic!` does not
cover this, since `single_line` runs after construction.

So `replace_control_characters_remapping_offsets` substitutes and remaps
in one pass, over an old-to-new byte offset table built the way
`ensure_uniform_list_compatible_label` does it in `lsp_store`. This also
fixes the call sites that already asked for a single line, including the
branch picker and the tabular column filter values.

### Deleting the git_ui overrides

Nine files replicated the default `Item::tab_content` verbatim except
for the colour, hardcoding `selected ? Default : Muted` instead of
`params.text_color()`. Deleting them lets those tabs inherit the fixed
default, and fixes a second bug along the way: none of them dimmed when
the pane lost focus. Titles and icons are unaffected — they come from
`tab_content_text` and `tab_icon`, which the default calls.
`git_graph.rs` already did it this way.

### Tabular column headers

These never went through a `Label` at all: the raw `SharedString` was a
child of a `div`. They now display stand-ins, while right-click-copy
still yields the real column name.

Two notes for reviewers:

- Both helpers avoid allocating when there is nothing to replace, so the
common path is untouched. The previous `self.label.replace('\n', "⏎")`
allocated a `String` on every render for every label — including every
visible project panel entry, every frame.
- Every stand-in is exactly one character, so character offsets are
preserved and the existing `truncate_and_trailoff` math on tab titles
stays correct.

## Testing

- Unit tests cover both helpers: each control character's substitution,
repeated occurrences, multi-byte characters (accents, emoji), the
borrow-vs-own behaviour, the preserved character count, C1 passthrough,
and — for the remapping — offsets before, at and after a replacement,
offsets at and past the end, and the invariant that every remapped
offset lands on a character boundary.
- Unit tests cover `Label::single_line` and
`HighlightedLabel::single_line`, the entry points every call site uses.
`highlighted_label.rs` had no tests before.
- `cargo test -p ui -p file_finder -p workspace -p project_panel -p
git_ui -p git_ui_core -p terminal_view -p tabular_data_preview` passes
(774 tests), as do `cargo clippy` and `cargo fmt --check`.
- No existing test changes behaviour: tests assert on
`tab_content_text`, which is untouched; only rendering paths changed.
- Verified manually on macOS (aarch64) — see Showcase.

## Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability
- [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments — none added

## Showcase

A directory holding `report<TAB>table.csv`, `notes<LF>draft.md`,
`carriage<CR>return.txt` and a normally named `normal.txt`, all four
open as tabs.

**Before**


![before](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/before.png)

**After**


![after](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/after.png)

Three things change:

1. **The `notes<LF>draft.md` tab** is the clearest one. Before, the
literal newline splits the tab across two lines — `notes` above
`draft.md` — distorting the whole tab bar. After, it stays on one line.
2. **`carriage<CR>return.txt` in the project panel** renders as
`carriagereturn.txt` before: the `\r` is completely invisible, so the
name reads as one word and there is no way to tell a character is there.
After, it renders as `carriage␍return.txt`.
3. **`report<TAB>table.csv`** shows a bare gap before, indistinguishable
from a space. After, it renders as `report␉table.csv`.

Note that `notes<LF>draft.md` looks the same in the project panel in
both shots: that entry already called `single_line`, which already
handled `\n`. That is precisely the asymmetry this PR removes.

### File finder

Before, the newline also breaks the list itself — the
`notes<LF>draft.md` row grows to two lines and overlaps the row beneath
it.

**Before**

![file finder
before](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/finder-before.png)

**After**

![file finder
after](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/finder-after.png)

Searching for `table` exercises the offset remapping, the match falling
after the control character:

**Before**

![match
before](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/match-before.png)

**After**

![match
after](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Taqinou/zed/0d5ee2b4f94db7bcb713298c38cf411458b75239/62664/match-after.png)

One thing this PR does **not** cover: the breadcrumb below the tab bar
still renders the raw tab character, as it goes through a different
path.

## Release Notes:

- Fixed file names containing control characters, such as tabs and
newlines, rendering unreadably in tabs, the project panel, the file
finder, the tab switcher and terminal tab titles.

Kirill Bulatov 21f16f7b5b Speed up cargo build -p zed compilation (#62059)
Splits the crate graph.
Before, the compilation graph: `editor → picker_preview → search →
project_panel → open_path_prompt → recent_projects → title_bar →
collab_ui → zed`
After, the compilation graph: `editor → picker_preview → search →
agent_ui → sidebar → zed`

With sccache disabled and project fully built, `touch
crates/editor/src/editor.rs` and `cargo build -p zed` took time
Before (5e1fd392f6): 13.19s
After: 11.85s (-10.2% speed up)

Each commit contains a separate compilation instructions, and a test in
the final commit.
The main approach is to split coupled crates and replace them with
`zed_actions` and move some shared functionality into `git_ui_core` new,
shared module.

I've also tried to add a test to prevent common pitfalls, but not sure
I'm happy with the end result — can remove it if it looks too synthetic.

c31b2b0dc7 Git partially staged changes (#46541)
This PR explores the addition of a new feature and UI to improve
visibility into partially staged commits.

Currently, the Git panel shows tracked and untracked changes, but it
does not clearly distinguish between staged and unstaged changes.

As a result, it’s difficult to quickly see which changes are not staged
in the current UI. Both staged and unstaged changes are combined into
the `Uncommitted Changes` multibuffer. This developer experience differs
from other editors, most notably VS Code; which presents separate Staged
Changes and Changes lists.

### Staged and unstaged diffs in multibuffers

This PR introduces an alternative UI for unstaged changes that aligns
with the overall Zed experience. Instead of showing changes on a
per-file basis, staged and unstaged diffs are each displayed in their
own multibuffers, similar to how `Uncommitted Changes` currently works.

For example the following screenshot shows the current `Uncommitted
Changes` on the left, the `Staged Changes` in the middle and the
`Unstaged Changes` buffer on the right for comparison

<img width="1408" height="859"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/aa709f7a-041d-4cb1-95d6-84c0f5fff688"
/>

### Indicators/interactions

The new multibuffers can be opened in two ways:

1. Via a new `U` chip, which appears when a file has unstaged changes
2. Via new menu options

(See screenshots below for both interaction paths.)


<table>
  <tr>
    <td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: top;">
      <p>via the chip</p>
      <img
        height="400"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3ef69f02-b787-499c-959a-25f50b3728e8"
        alt="Via the chip"
      />
    </td>
    <td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: top;">
      <p>via the menu</p>
      <img
        height="400"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f5be8b6d-ccdc-4420-bd29-75570b558016"
        alt="Via the menu"
      />
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

### Design goals
- minimally intrusive UI changes (small new badge and menu items)
- adhere by Zed'ism (use multibuffer where possible)
- avoid disabling any current interactions (Uncommitted Changes ui is
unchanged)
- avoid introducing an app level view mode (no new settings needed)

### Experience goals
- make it easy to see what changes are not staged
- make it easy to see that a file has unstaged changes (avoid developers
accidently leaving out changes in a commit; a personal issue that I have
when using Zed)
- elegantly handle large file's unstaged changes (follows the same
collapse and expanding seen in `Uncommitted Changes`)

### How to try

- Clone the repo and run `cargo run`
- Make a change to a file and stage it
- Make another change to the file (the `U` indicator will appear)
- Click the `U` to see the unstaged view

### Open questions/rough edges
- [ ] determine if this user experience is useful for others
- [ ] ensure all interactions work as expected (response to all update
cases)

In general I'm really interested in hearing the community's feedback
about this interface, more than happy to make any changes or explore a
different solution!

### Related issue:

- https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/26560

Release Notes:

- Support partially staged commit multibuffers via a staged and unstaged
changes view.

3df0812498 Refactor BufferDiff to allow multiple diffs to share the same base text buffer (#58266)
This PR changes how base texts are managed by the `buffer_diff` crate,
to enable keeping two diff entities alive that share the same base text
buffer entity. Previously, each diff owned its own base text buffer and
edited it when calling `BufferDiff::set_snapshot`, so the only way to
reuse the same base text between two diffs was to have two independent
buffers for it, which is pretty inefficient.

After this PR, each diff still has a base text buffer, but
`set_snapshot` doesn't edit it. Instead, that responsibility moves into
the caller. For updating the base text buffer, this PR also introduces a
new pair of APIs, `Buffer::snapshot_with_edits` and
`Buffer::fast_forward`, which allow us to move the parsing of the new
base text into the background and then install the new syntax tree
synchronously on the foreground.

The git store uses the low-level APIs `set_snapshot` and `fast_forward`
directly, and manages the head text and index text buffers itself
(garbage-collecting them when they're no longer needed); this enables
adding an `open_staged_diff` API which returns a diff between the
managed index buffer and the managed head buffer (the latter is also
used for the uncommitted diff's base text). Other downstreams don't need
to reuse a base text buffer, and those have been migrated to use the
high-level `set_base_text` API, which now calls `set_snapshot` and
`fast_forward` internally, with a guard to prevent concurrent updates.

Another change worthy of note is that we now always diff the old base
text with the new base text to create `snapshot_with_edits`.

There are also some incidental bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue where a dangling weak unstaged diff could stick around
in the git store forever
- Restored the `IndexMatchesHead` optimization that had become
inoperative in the remote case
- Fixed a crash in the multibuffer due to the handling of
`BufferDiffEvent::LanguageChanged`, which could cause the multibuffer to
have transforms that were inconsistent with the diff base text.

Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability
- [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments
- [x] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX
checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)
- [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior
- [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable

Closes ZED-81P

Release Notes:

- Fixed a rare crash that could occur while using the uncommitted diff.

Lukas Wirth 3bc4b584b1 editor: Replace BreadcrumbText with HighlightedText (#51083)
Remove the BreadcrumbText struct from workspace and use the existing

segments from the breadcrumbs() method, since the font was always
uniform across all segments of a given item.

Lukas Wirth 9cd2343432 editor: Put more syntax walking features on the background (#48450)
Currently we always compute breadcrumbs and sticky headers on every
editor paint which is not cheap to do especially in bigger files, moving
this off to be computed on event handling where they change and then
caching them can save serveral milliseconds per render in bigger files.

This also puts matching brackets refreshing and document highlights on a
background task, as this tends to block the main task for prolonged time
as well.

David BarskyandLukas Wirth 185a80a21b cli: Teach --diff to recurse into directories and add a MultiDiffView (#45131)
This branch:
1. teaches `--diff `command line option to to recurse into folders if
provided.
2. Adds a `MultiDiffView` that shows _all_ changed files in a single,
scrollable view.

This is necessary to provide a smooth user experience for `jj` and Zed
users who wish to use Zed as their jj difftool.

I'm not fully sure how this change interacts with
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/44936, or what plans y'all
have in mind.

Here's a screenshot of the resulting behavior:

<img width="1090" height="950" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-17 at 9 10 52 AM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8efd09b4-974f-4059-9f94-539c484c6d4a"
/>

I setup zed to handle jj diffs by adding the following to my jj config:

```toml
[aliases]
zdiff = ["diff", "--tool", "zed"]

[merge-tools.zed]
program = "/Users/dbarsky/Developer/zed/target/debug/cli"
# omit diff-invocation-mode to keep the default (JJ passes two dirs)
diff-args = [
  "--zed", "/Users/dbarsky/Developer/zed/target/debug/zed",
  "--wait",
  "--new",
  "--diff",
  "$left",
  "$right",
]
```

Release Notes:

- `--diff`, if provided with folders instead of files, will recurse into
those directories.
- Added a `MultiDiffView`, which will show all changed files within a
single, scrollable view.

**AI Disclosure**: Pretty much all of this code was written using Codex
with GPT-5.1-Codex. I edited by hand and tested this.
