Worktree creations are implemented similar to how branch creations are
handled on the branch picker (the user types a new name that's not on
the list and a new entry option appears to create a new branch with that
name).
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/39e58983-740c-4a91-be88-57ef95aed85b
With this picker you have a few workflows:
- Open the picker and type the name of a branch that's checked out on an
existing worktree:
- Press enter to open the worktree on a new window
- Press ctrl-enter to open the worktree and replace the current window
- Open the picker and type the name of a new branch or an existing one
that's not checked out in another worktree:
- Press enter to create the worktree and open in a new window. If the
branch doesn't exists, we will create a new one based on the branch you
have currently checked out. If the branch does exists then we create a
worktree with that branch checked out.
- Press ctrl-enter to do everything on the previous point but instead,
replace the current window with the new worktre.
- Open the picker and type the name of a new branch or an existing one
that's not checked out in another worktree:
- If a default branch is detected on the repo, you can create a new
worktree based on that branch by pressing ctrl-enter or
ctrl-shift-enter. The first one will open a new window and the last one
will replace the current one.
Note: If you preffer to not use the system prompt for choosing a
directory, you can set `"use_system_path_prompts": false` in zed
settings.
Release Notes:
- Added git worktree picker to open a git worktree on a new window or
replace the current one
- Added git worktree creation action

Closes#41407
This solves a problem where users couldn't navigate between snippet
tabstops while the completion menu was open.
I named the action {Next, Previous}SnippetTabstop instead of Placeholder
to be more inline with the LSP spec naming convention and our codebase
names.
Release Notes:
- Editor: Add actions to move between snippet tabstop positions
The current Jetbrains keymap has `ctrl-shift-f12` set to
`CloseAllDocks`. On Jetbrains IDEs this hotkey actually toggles the
docks, which is very convenient: You press it once to hide all docks and
just focus on the code, and then you can press it again to toggle your
docks right back to how they were. Unlike `CloseAllDocks`, a toggle
means the editor needs to remember the previous docks state so this
necessitated some code changes.
Release Notes:
- Added a `Toggle All Docks` editor action and updated the keymaps to
use it
Just got a new Windows machine and realized that the rules library empty
state was completly busted. Ended up also adding some little UI tweaks
to make it better for both Windows and Linux.
Release Notes:
- N/A
- Added "ctrl-p" for selecting the previous menu item
- Added "ctrl-n" for selecting the next menu item
Closes#40619
Release Notes:
- Ctrl+P now moves to the previous result; Ctrl+N moves to the next.
Hello,
I am having a great time setting up the editor, but with a few problems
related to the Emacs keymap.
In this PR I have compiled changes in the default `emacs.json` that I
believe make the onboarding smoother for incoming emacs users.
This includes points that may need further discussion and some breaking
changes, although nothing that cannot be reverted with a quick
`keymap.json` overwrite.
(Please let me know if it is better to split up the PR)
### 1. Avoid fallbacks to the default keymap
all platforms:
- `ctrl-g` activating `go_to_line::Toggle` when there is nothing to
cancel
linux / windows:
- `ctrl-x` activating `editor::Cut` on the 1 second timeout
- `ctrl-p` activating `file_finder::Toggle` when the cursor is on the
first character of the buffer
- `ctrl-n` activating `workspace::NewFile` when the cursor is on the
last character of the buffer
### 2. Make all move commands operate on full words
In the current Zed implementation some commands run on full words and
others on subwords.
Although ultimately a matter of user preference, I think it is sensible
to use full words as the default, since that is what is shipped with
emacs.
### ~~3. Cancel selections after copy/cut commands~~ Moved to #40904
Canceling the selection is the default emacs behavior, but the way to
achieve it might need some brushing.
Currently I am using `workspace::SendKeystrokes` to copy ->
cancel(`ctrl-g`), but this has the following problems:
- can only be used in the main buffer (since `editor::Cancel` would
typically close secondary buffers)
- may cause problems downstream if the user overwrites the `ctrl-g`
binding
### ~~4. Replace killring with normal cut/paste commands~~ Moved to
#40905
Ideally Zed would support emacs-like killrings (#25270 and #22490).
However, I understand that making an emacs emulator is not a project
goal, and the Zed team should have a bunch of tasks with higher
priority.
By using a unified clipboard and standard cut/paste commands, we can
provide an experience that is closer to the out-of-the-box emacs
behavior (#33351) while also avoiding some pitfalls of the current
killring implementation (#28715).
### 5. Promote some bindings to workspace commands
- `alt-x` as `command_palette::Toggle`
- `ctrl-x b` and `ctrl-x ctrl-b` as `tab_switcher::Toggle`
---
Release Notes:
- emacs: Fixed a problem where keys would fallback to their default
keymap binding on certain conditions
- emacs: Changed `alt-f` and `alt-b` to operate on full words, as in the
emacs default
- emacs: `alt-x`, `ctrl-x b`, and `ctrl-x ctrl-b` are now Workspace
bindings
This PR renames the `agent::QuoteSelection` to
`agent::AddSelectionToThread` _and_ adds it as a menu item in both the
right-click context menu within regular buffers as well as the
"Selection" app menu.
We've received feedback in the past about how hard to discover this
feature is, and after watching [the Syntax podcast
crew](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRK3PeVFfVE) recently struggle
with doing so—and then naturally looking for it in the context menu and
not finding it—it felt like time to push a change. I think the rename +
the availability in these places could help bringing it to surface more.
The same action can be done in Cursor through the `cmd-l` keybinding,
but in Zed, that triggers `editor::SelectLine`, which I don't want to
override by default. However, if you're using Cursor's keymap, then
`cmd-l` does trigger this action, as expected.

/>
Release Notes:
- agent: Improves discoverability of the previously called "quote
selection" action—which allows to add a text selection in a buffer as
context within the agent panel—by renaming it to "add selection to
thread" and making it available from the right-click editor context menu
as well as the "Selection" app menu.
Adds a way to submit feedback about a zeta2 prediction from the
inspector. The telemetry event includes:
- project snapshot (git + unsaved buffer state)
- the full request and response
- user feedback kind and text
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes#40608
This fixes tabbing in both the settings ui nav bar and page content
going off screen instead of scrolling the focused element into a visible
view.
The bug occurred because `gpui::list` and `gpui::uniform_list` only
render visible elements, preventing non visible elements in a view from
having their focus handle added to the element tree. Thus making the tab
stop map skip over those elements because they weren't present.
The fix for this is scrolling to reveal non visible elements and then
focus the selected element on the next frame.
Release Notes:
- settings ui: Auto scroll to reveal items in navigation bar and window
when tabbing

Continues the work from #35927 to add a git diff view for stash entries.
[Screencast From 2025-09-17
19-46-01.webm](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ded33782-adef-4696-8e34-3665911c09c7)
Stash entries are [represented as
commits](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-stash#_discussion) except they
have up to 3 parents:
```
.----W (this is the stash entry)
/ /|
-----H----I |
\|
U
```
Where `H` is the `HEAD` commit, `I` is a commit that records the state
of the index, and `U` is another commit that records untracked files
(when using `git stash -u`).
Given this, I modified the existing commit view struct to allow loading
stash and commits entries with git sha identifier so that we can get a
similar git diff view for both of them.
The stash diff is generated by comparing the stash commit with its
parent (`<commit>^` or `H` in the diagram) which generates the same diff
as doing `git stash show -p <stash entry>`. This *can* be
counter-intuitive since a user may expect the comparison to be made
between the stash commit and the current commit (`HEAD`), but given that
the default behavior in git cli is to compare with the stash parent, I
went for that approach.
Hoping to get some feedback from a Zed team member to see if they agree
with this approach.
Release Notes:
- Add git diff view for stash entries
- Add toolbar on git diff view for stash entries
- Prompt before executing a destructive stash action on diff view
- Fix commit view for merge commits (see #38289)
Fixes#40034
Release Notes:
- `ctrl-c` (when you have a selection) and `ctrl-v` are now bound to
copy and paste by default in the windows terminal.

Hello,
Thanks for the great work.
I am adding some more bindings for the emacs keymap:
- `command_palette::Toggle` as replacement for the emacs command
dispatcher
- other default aliases for existing move / delete commands
- e.g. `alt-left` to move to previous word and `alt-del` to delete it
- some missing `SelectTo` equivalents for move commands on selection
mode
Release Notes:
- Added bindings for the Emacs keymap
`vim::Substitute` is a little different from the helix behavior, so this
PR adds helix versions. The most important difference (for my usage, at
least) is that if you're selecting whole lines then helix drops the `\n`
from the selection (much like vim's lines mode, except that helix bases
this behavior on the selection instead of having a different mode).
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes#33637Closes#37332
and solves part of
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/33580#discussioncomment-14195506
This improves the "C" and "alt-C" actions to work like helix.
It also adds "," which removes all but the newest cursors. In helix the
one that's left would be the primary selection, but I don't think that
has an equivalent yet, so this simulates what would be the primary
selection if it was never cycled with "(" ")".
Release Notes:
- Improved multicursor creation and deletion in helix mode

Update the keybindings used in the default keymaps to better align with
VSCode's defaults, with the following changes:
* Windows & Linux
* `ctrl-enter` has been replaced by `ctrl-i` for
`assistant::InlineAssist`
* `ctrl-shift-space` maps to `editor::ShowSignatureHelp` instead of
`editor::ShowWordCompletions`
* MacOS
* `ctrl-enter` has been replaced by `cmd-i` for
`assistant::InlineAssist`
* `cmd-i` has been replaced by `cmd-shift-space` for
`editor::ShowSignatureHelp`
Closes#39278
Release Notes:
- Changed the keybinding for `assistant: inline assist` from
`ctrl-enter` to `ctrl-i` for both Linux and Windows, and `cmd-i` for
MacOS. If you'd like to restore the old behavior, update your keymap
file with:
```
{
"context": "!ContextEditor > Editor && mode == full",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-enter": "assistant::InlineAssist"
}
}
```
- Changed the action dispatched by `ctrl-shift-space` from
`editor::ShowWordCompletions` to `editor::ShowSignatureHelp` on both
Linux and Windows. If you'd like to restore the old behavior, update
your keymap file with:
``` {
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-shift-space": "editor::ShowWordCompletions"
}
}
```
- Changed the keybinding for `editor: show signature help` on MacOS from
`cmd-i` to `cmd-shift-space`. If you'd like to restore the old behavior,
update your keymap file with:
``` {
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"cmd-i": "editor::ShowSignatureHelp"
}
}
```

- Add `skip_soft_wrap` field to both `AddSelectionAbove` and
`AddSelectionBelow` actions. When set to `true`, which is now
the default this will skip soft wrapped lines when extending the
selections.
- Move the `start_of_relative_buffer_row` function from the
`vim::motion` module to the `editor::display_map::DisplaySnapshot`
implementation as a method.
- Update the default behavior for both `editor: add selection above` and
`editor: add selection below` commands in order to skip over soft
wrapped lines by default, mirroring VS Code's default behavior.
- Update existing keymaps to specify this `skip_soft_wrap` value for
both `AddSelectionAbove` and `AddSelectionBelow` actions.
Closes#16979
Release Notes:
- Updated both the `editor: add selection above` and `editor: add
selection below` commands to ignore soft wrapped lines. If you wish to
restore the old behavior, add the following to your keymap file:
```
{
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"cmd-alt-up": ["editor::AddSelectionAbove", { "skip_soft_wrap": false
}],
"cmd-alt-down": ["editor::AddSelectionBelow", { "skip_soft_wrap": false
}]
}
}

### What does this PR do?
- Adds default keybindings `gt` for navigating to the next tab and `gT`
for navigating to the previous tab in markdown viewer mode
### Why do we need this change?
- While previewing markdown files, the default vim bindings (`gt` and
`gT`) do not work for navigating between tabs. These bindings work
everywhere else, which provides a non-consistent experience for the
user.
### How do we do this change?
- Update the vim mode bindings to explicitly add handling for this mode

Release Notes:
- settings ui: Navigating the settings navbar with arrow keys up and
down now also activates the page, allowing users to more quickly see the
content for a given page before moving focus to the page itself.
This PR renames the following actions to make it easier and prioritize
the UI version of interacting with them:
| Before | After |
|--------|--------|
| `OpenSettingsEditor` | `OpenSettings` |
| `OpenSettings` | `OpenSettingsFile` |
| `OpenKeymapEditor` | `OpenKeymap` |
| `OpenKeymap` | `OpenKeymapFile` |
Release Notes:
- Rename actions to open settings (UI/window and JSON file) as well as
to open the keymap (editor tab and JSON file).
- Update `AcpThreadView.insert_selections` to take into account whether
the user is currently editing an existing message and, if it is, insert
the selection into that message instead of the thread's message editor
- Update Window's default keymap to use the `agent::QuoteSelection`
action instead of the deprecated `assistant::QuoteSelection` action
- Introduce `AcpThreadView.active_editor` to allow callers to retrieve
either the thread view's message editor or the editor for the message
being edited, in case `AcpThreadView.editing_message` is not `None`
- Improve `AcpThreadView.focus_handle` to focus on the message being
currently edited in case the user navigates back to the editor and then
to the thread view again, all while editing a message
- Add tests for `AcpThreadView.insert_selections`, ensuring that the
selection is inserted in the message being currently edited, if a
message is being edited, or the thread view's message editor if no
message is being edited
Closes#39693
Release Notes:
- Improved `agent: quote selection` to also work for a message that was
already sent but is being edited

These changes refactor the whitespace handling logic for Vim's change
surrounds command (`cs`), making its behavior closely match
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround), following
[this
discussion](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38169#issuecomment-3304129461).
Zed's current implementation has two main differences when compared to
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround):
- It only considers whether a single space should be added or removed,
instead of all the space that is between the surrounding character and
the content
- It only takes into consideration the new surrounding characters in
order to determine whether to add or remove that space
A review of
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround)'s behavior
reveals these rules for whitespace:
* Quote to Quote
* Whitespace is never changed
* Quote to Bracket
* If opening bracket, add one space
* If closing bracket, do not add space
* Bracket to Bracket
* If opening to opening, keep only one space
* If opening to closing, remove all space
* If closing to opening, add one space
* If closing to closing, do not change space
* Bracket to Quote
* If opening, remove all space
* If closing, preserve all space
Below is a table with examples for each scenario. A new test has also
been added to specifically check the scenarios outlined above,
`vim::surrounds::test::test_change_surrounds_vim`.
| Type | Before | Command | After |
|-------------------|-------------|---------|---------------|
| Quote → Quote | `' a '` | `cs'"` | `" a "` |
| Quote → Quote | `" a "` | `cs"'` | `' a '` |
| Quote → Bracket | `' a '` | `cs'{` | `{ a }` |
| Quote → Bracket | `' a '` | `cs'}` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs[{` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs[}` | `{a}` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs]{` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs]}` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Quote | `[ a ]` | `cs['` | `'a'` |
| Bracket → Quote | `[ a ]` | `cs]'` | `' a '` |
These changes diverge from
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround) when
handling newlines. For example, with the following snippet:
```rust
fn test_surround() {
if 2 > 1 {
println!("place cursor here");
}
};
```
Placing the cursor inside the string and running any combination of
`cs{[`, `cs{]`, `cs}[`, or `cs}]` would previously remove newline
characters. With these changes, using commands like `cs}]` will now
preserve newlines.
Related to #38169Closes#39334
Release Notes:
- Improved Vim’s change surround command to closely match
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround) behavior.

## Description
Fixes#39376
Add individual FoldAtLevel1-9 actions so users can find fold commands in
the command palette while keeping existing keybindings.
Migrating user keymaps is necessary to have the keybinds show in the command palette.
Closes#39376
### Changes
- `crates/editor/src/actions.rs` - Added FoldAtLevel1-9 action structs
- `crates/editor/src/editor.rs` - Implemented fold_at_level_1-9 handler
methods
- `crates/editor/src/element.rs` - Registered new actions
- `assets/keymaps/*.json` - Updated keybindings to use new individual
actions
### Other Approaches considered
- Adding #[serde(default)] to existing FoldAtLevel(u32) - wouldn't make
it discoverable
- Creating a single action with enumerated variants - idk about this
that well.

Despite how great `cmd-d` as a keybinding is, that was not working as it
was conflicting with an editor keybinding:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2ea8665b-7008-4f0a-9426-8d31d379ee1c
This PR changes it to `cmd-alt-z`, which is the best "remove/fix"-type
of keybinding I could find that doesn't conflict with anything else.
Ideally, we'd use either the D, N, or R letters for "deny", "no", and
"reject", but unfortunately, none of them are nicely available in this
context...
Release Notes:
- agent: Fix keybinding to deny running a command
Closes#10930Closes#11353
Release Notes:
- Adds commands to project_panel
- `ctrl-u` scrolls the project_panel up half of the visible entries
- `ctrl-d` scrolls the project_panel down half of the visible entries
- `z z` scrolls current selection to center of window
- `z t` scrolls current selection to top of window
- `z b` scrolls current selection to bottom of window
- `{num} j` and `{num} k` now move up and down with a count
Since 2021 Neovim remaps Y to $y (1). DO the same in zed through a new action `YankToEndOfLine`.
1: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/13268
Release Notes:
- Added vim::YankToEndOfLine action which copies from the cursor to the end of the line excluding the newline. We bind it to Y by default in the vim keymap.
i'm testing out zed, coming from emacs, and so i'm trying out the base
keymap for it. i noticed though that zed's default git keybindings don't
work when the gitpanel is open though, because of the top-level binding
of `ctrl-g` to cancel. my expectation is that the emacs-like keybindings
would work insofar as they don't clobber zed's defaults (which would
take precedence), but obviously i'll defer to others on this!
another option could be to use the `C-x v` keymap prefix that the emacs
built-in `vc` package uses, but it doesn't contain the same set of
bindings for git commands that zed has.
This is how `ctrl-n` works on macOS. Right now `ctrl-n` on Windows with
the default keymap usually causes a new buffer to open, which is
inconvenient.
Release Notes:
- N/A
