mac_watcher already does this so it would make more sense to also do
this on Windows and it saves ~500-600mb of ram on the chromium project.
This does not improve memory usage on linux because inotify cannot do
recursive directory monitoring

When checking the trace, it is notable that project panel updates its
entire tree multiple times during flycheck:

Turns out, `target/debug` directory is loaded by Zed (presumably,
reported by langserver as there are sources generated by bindgen and
proto that need to be loaded), and `target/debug/build` directory
received multiple events of a `None` kind for Zed, which trigger the
rescans.
Rework the logic to omit the `None`-kind events in Zed, and to avoid
excessive repo updates if not needed.

### Background
On Windows, paths are normally separated by `\`, unlike mac and linux
where they are separated by `/`. When editing code in a project that
uses a different path style than your local system (e.g. remoting from
Windows to Linux, using WSL, and collaboration between windows and unix
users), the correct separator for a path may differ from the "native"
separator.
Previously, to work around this, Zed converted paths' separators in
numerous places. This was applied to both absolute and relative paths,
leading to incorrect conversions in some cases.
### Solution
Many code paths in Zed use paths that are *relative* to either a
worktree root or a git repository. This PR introduces a dedicated type
for these paths called `RelPath`, which stores the path in the same way
regardless of host platform, and offers `Path`-like manipulation APIs.
RelPath supports *displaying* the path using either separator, so that
we can display paths in a style that is determined at runtime based on
the current project.
The representation of absolute paths is left untouched, for now.
Absolute paths are different from relative paths because (except in
contexts where we know that the path refers to the local filesystem)
they should generally be treated as opaque strings. Currently we use a
mix of types for these paths (std::path::Path, String, SanitizedPath).

Closes #ISSUE
This PR continues work from #32821 by adding a stash entry picker for
pop/drop operations. Additionally, the stash pop action in the git panel
is now disabled when no stash entries exist, preventing error logs from
attempted pops on empty stashes.

### Background
Zed extensions use WASI to access the file-system. They only have
read-write access to one specific folder called their work dir. But
extensions do need to be able to *refer* to other arbitrary files on the
user's machine. For instance, extensions need to be able to look up
existing binaries on the user's `PATH`, and request that Zed invoke them
as language servers. Similarly, extensions can create paths to files in
the user's project, and use them as arguments in commands that Zed
should run. For these reasons, we pass *real* paths back and forth
between the host and extensions; we don't try to abstract over the
file-system with some virtualization scheme.
On Windows, this results in a bit of mismatch, because `wasi-libc` uses
*unix-like* path conventions (and thus, so does the Rust standard
library when compiling to WASI).
### Change 1 - Fixing `current_dir`
In order to keep the extension API minimal, extensions use the standard
library function`env::current_dir()` to query the location of their
"work" directory. Previously, when initializing extensions, we used the
`env::set_current_dir` function to set their work directory, but on
Windows, where absolute paths typically begin with a drive letter, like
`C:`, the [`wasi-libc` implementation of
`chdir`](d1793637d8/libc-bottom-half/sources/chdir.c (L21))
was prepending an extra forward slash to the path, which caused
`current_dir()` to return an invalid path.
See https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/10415
In this PR, I've switched our extension initialization function to
*bypass* wasi-libc's `chdir` function, and instead write directly to
wasi-libc's private, internal state. This is a bit of a hack, but it
causes the `current_dir()` function to do what we want on Windows
without any changes to extensions' source code.
### Change 2 - Working around WASI's relative path handling
Once `current_dir` was fixed (giving us correct absolute paths on
Windows), @kubkon and I discovered that without the spurious leading `/`
character, windows absolute paths were no longer accepted by Rust's
`std::fs` APIs, because they were now recognized as relative paths, and
were being appended to the working directory.
We first tried to override the `__wasilibc_find_abspath` function in
`wasi-libc` to make it recognize windows absolute paths as being
absolute, but that functionality is difficult to override. Eventually
@kubkon realized that we could prevent WASI-libc's CWD handling from
being linked into the WASM file by overriding the `chdir` function.
wasi-libc is designed so that if you don't use their `chdir` function,
then all paths will be interpreted as relative to `/`. This makes
absolute paths behave correctly. Then, in order to make *relative* paths
work again, we simply add a preopen for `.`. Relative paths will match
that.
### Next Steps
This is a change to `zed-extension-api`, so we do need to update every
Zed extension to use the new version, in order for them to work on
windows.

This removes around 900 unnecessary clones, ranging from cloning a few
ints all the way to large data structures and images.
A lot of these were fixed using `cargo clippy --fix --workspace
--all-targets`, however it often breaks other lints and needs to be run
again. This was then followed up with some manual fixing.
I understand this is a large diff, but all the changes are pretty
trivial. Rust is doing some heavy lifting here for us. Once I get it up
to speed with main, I'd appreciate this getting merged rather sooner
than later.

- N/A
This PR adds preliminary git clone support through using the new
`GitClone` action. This works with SSH connections too.
- [x] Get backend working
- [x] Add a UI to interact with this
Future follow-ups:
- Polish the UI
- Have the path select prompt say "Select Repository clone target"
instead of “Open”
- Use Zed path prompt if the user has that as a setting
- Add support for cloning from a user's GitHub repositories directly
Release Notes:
- Add the ability to clone remote git repositories through the `git:
Clone` action

Downsides:
- Cost (2x)
- Force migration to Ubuntu 22.04 from 20.04 will bump our glibc minimum
from 2.31 to 2.35. Which would break RHEL 9.x (glibc 2.34), Ubuntu 20.04
(EOL) and derivatives.

Closes#33700
The option shows up as an icon that appears on entries that would create
a new branch. You can also branch from the default by secondary
confirming, which the icon has a tooltip for as well.
We based the default branch on the results from this command: `git
symbolic-ref refs/remotes/upstream/HEAD` and fallback to `git
symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD`
Release Notes:
- Add option to create a branch from a default branch in git branch

This PR contains a set of changes for improving FreeBSD support (#15309,
#29550) and is a kind of follow up to the PR #20480 which added an
initial support for FreeBSD.
A summary of changes is as follows:
- Add some more freebsd conditionals which seem missing in the previous
PR.
- Implement `anonymous_fd()` and `current_path()` functions for FreeBSD.
- Improve detection of FreeBSD in telemetry and GPU detection.
- Temporarily disable LiveKit/WebRTC support to make build succeed.
- Remove support for flatpak since it is Linux-only packaging format.
Adding `RUSTFLAGS="-C link-dead-code"` does not seem necessary anymore.
It builds fine without the flag.
Known issues:
- Integrated terminal is painfully laggy and virtually unusable in my
environment. This might be specific to my setup.
- I cannot input Japanese using IME. When I type characters, they appear
on the screen. But when I hit return key, they disappears. Seems the
same issue as #15409.
My environment is MATE desktop on X11 on FreeBSD 14.2 on Intel Core
i5-7260U integrated graphics.
P.S. For those who might be interested, a work-in-progress FreeBSD port
and binary packages are available at
https://github.com/tagattie/FreeBSD-Zed

Release Notes:
- Improved the review experience in the agent panel. Now, when you
commit changes (generated by the AI agent) using Git, Zed will
automatically dismiss the agent’s review UI for those changes. This
means you won’t have to manually “keep” or approve changes twice—just
commit, and you’re done.
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/30972 brought up another
case where our context is not enough to track the actual source of the
issue: we get a general top-level error without inner error.
The reason for this was `.ok_or_else(|| anyhow!("failed to read HEAD
SHA"))?; ` on the top level.
The PR finally reworks the way we use anyhow to reduce such issues (or
at least make it simpler to bubble them up later in a fix).
On top of that, uses a few more anyhow methods for better readability.
* `.ok_or_else(|| anyhow!("..."))`, `map_err` and other similar error
conversion/option reporting cases are replaced with `context` and
`with_context` calls
* in addition to that, various `anyhow!("failed to do ...")` are
stripped with `.context("Doing ...")` messages instead to remove the
parasitic `failed to` text
* `anyhow::ensure!` is used instead of `if ... { return Err(...); }`
calls
* `anyhow::bail!` is used instead of `return Err(anyhow!(...));`
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes#30054
For reference, another way to work around this is to drop the file
handle which we can't do in this case, as it would require reopening the
settings.json worktree, which is a rather unpleasant fix.
Another approach might be to open the file handle with some special
flags, but I couldn't get that to work at the time of writing.
Release Notes:
- Fixed "Backup and Update" in settings migration not working on
Windows.
Release Notes:
- Changed the git branch picker to make remote-tracking branches less
prominent

Since #28065 merged we've seen deadlocks inside iconv when opening Zed
in a repository containing many submodules. These calls to iconv happen
inside libgit2, in our implementations of the methods `head_sha`,
`merge_head_shas`, and `show` on `RealGitRepository`. This PR moves
those methods to use the git CLI instead, sidestepping the issue. For
the sake of efficiency, a new `revparse_batch` method is added that uses
`git cat-file` to resolve several ref names in one invocation. I
originally intended to make `show` operate in batch mode as well (or
instead), but I can't see a good way to do that with the git CLI; `git
show` always bails on the first ref that it can't resolve, and
`for-each-ref` doesn't support symbolic refs like `HEAD`.
Separately, I removed the calls to `show` in `MergeDetails::load`, going
back to only loading the SHAs of the various merge heads. Loading full
commit details was intended to support the inlays feature that ended up
being cut from #28065, and we can add it back in when we need it.
