## Objective `file_scan_exclusions` replaces the defaults instead of adding to them, so excluding one extra directory means restating all eleven default globs and never picking up defaults added in later Zed releases. ## Solution `file_scan_exclusions` now accepts the `"..."` entry, which expands to the value it overrides, so `["**/node_modules", "..."]` adds to the inherited globs instead of replacing them. Entries listed by name keep their position, and leaving `"..."` out still replaces the list outright, so existing settings behave exactly as they do today. ## Testing - Four unit tests in `crates/settings_content/src/project.rs` cover splicing versus replacing, accumulation across successive layers, and edge cases: a repeated `"..."`, an empty list clearing the value, and a bare `["..."]` leaving it unchanged. - To check by hand: set `"file_scan_exclusions": ["**/node_modules", "..."]` in user settings and confirm `node_modules` disappears from the project panel and file finder while `.git` and `.DS_Store` stay excluded. Remove `"..."` and confirm only `node_modules` is excluded. Repeat in a project's `.zed/settings.json` to confirm it splices the resolved user settings rather than the defaults. - Tested on macOS. This is platform-independent settings-merge logic with no OS-specific code paths, so I did not test Linux or Windows. ## 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 adheres to Zed’s UI standards ([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) and [icon](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md) guidelines) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable --- Release Notes: - Added support for the `"..."` entry in `file_scan_exclusions`. Custom exclusions can now extend the defaults instead of replacing them.
