Danilo Leal e1ee74dcbf worktree_picker: Improve discoverability of tasks as a creation setup mechanism (#61148)
Sometimes when creating Git worktrees, it's necessary to set things up
so the new worktree is ready. For example, copying env.vars, installing
dependencies, etc. That was already possible in Zed through the tasks
system, but you'd only maybe know about that if you read the
documentation or is super familiar with it already; nothing in the
product in the context of worktrees told you about that. This is what
this PR does.

Now, in the worktree picker, there's a "" button that opens the
`tasks.json` file exposing the `create_worktree` hook, which allows you
to plugin all sorts of things to be run by the time of a worktree
creation. If you don't already have a `tasks.json` file, we will create
a new one for you with a worktree-creation template. Otherwise, we
either append the `create_worktree` hook content to it or just open the
file.

Here's a quick video:

Release Notes:

for setting up things that need to happen by the time of worktree
creation.

Licensing

Zed source code is licensed primarily under GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked.

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.

Zed is developed by Zed Industries, Inc., a for-profit company.

If you’d like to financially support the project, you can do so via GitHub Sponsors. Sponsorships go directly to Zed Industries and are used as general company revenue. There are no perks or entitlements associated with sponsorship.
