Previously, staging a large file in the git panel would block the UI
items until that operation finished. This is due to the fact that
staging is a git op that is locked globally by git (per repo) meaning
only one op that is modifying the git index can run at any one time. In
order to make the UI snappy while letting any pending git staging jobs
to finish in the background, we track their progress via `PendingOps`
indexed by git entry path. We have already had a concept of pending
operations however they existed at the UI layer in the `GitPanel`
abstraction. This PR moves and augments `PendingOps` into the model
`Repository` in `git_store` which seems like a more natural place for
tracking running git jobs/operations. Thanks to this, pending ops are
now stored in a `SumTree` indexed by git entry path part of the
`Repository` snapshot, which makes for efficient access from the UI.
Release Notes:
- Improved UI responsiveness when staging/unstaging large files in the
git panel
- Adds a new action `git::PullRebase` which adds `--rebase` in the final
command invoked by existing Git-Pull implementation.
- Includes the new action in "Fetch/Push" button in the Git Panel
(screenshot below)
- Adds key-binding for `git::PullRebase` in all three platforms,
following the existing key-binding patterns (`ctrl-g shift-down`)
- Update git docs to include the new action.
Sidenote: This is my first ever OSS contribution

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

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)
We've been considering removing workspace-hack for a couple reasons:
- Lukas ran into a situation where its build script seemed to be causing
spurious rebuilds. This seems more likely to be a cargo bug than an
issue with workspace-hack itself (given that it has an empty build
script), but we don't necessarily want to take the time to hunt that
down right now.
- Marshall mentioned hakari interacts poorly with automated crate
updates (in our case provided by rennovate) because you'd need to have
`cargo hakari generate && cargo hakari manage-deps` after their changes
and we prefer to not have actions that make commits.
Currently removing workspace-hack causes our workspace to grow from
~1700 to ~2000 crates being built (depending on platform), which is
mainly a problem when you're building the whole workspace or running
tests across the the normal and remote binaries (which is where
feature-unification nets us the most sharing). It doesn't impact
incremental times noticeably when you're just iterating on `-p zed`, and
we'll hopefully get these savings back in the future when
rust-lang/cargo#14774 (which re-implements the functionality of hakari)
is finished.

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38690Closes#37353
### 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).

- N/A

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.

When working on the git stash picker PR (#35927) I notice that my test
was detected as a binary file on the git diff view and on GitHub. This
was due to the fact that I was using the literal char \0 (instead of a
proper representation like `\x00` or `\u{0000}`) character in my test
strings. This causes problems with git diff and GitHub's diff viewer,
and a reviewer might even assume that the file is corrupted, not
viewable or even malicious.
Looking at the rest of the codebase, only at `crates/git/src/commit.rs`
this character was used, so I replaced it with `\x00` which is a more
common representation of the null character in Rust strings.
It can also be seen that the PR that introduced this code, can't be
viewed properly on Github:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/27636/files#diff-31114f0b22306b467482573446f71c638277510b442a10e60dd9a8667ccd93c3
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Use `\x00` representation instead of literal null character in strings
to improve compatibility with git diff and GitHub's diff viewer.
Since the file is not viewable from the "Files changed" tab on Github,
this is the changed code:
dcd743aca4/crates/git/src/commit.rs (L66-L74)
This works around a bug wherein inline git blame is unavailable for
files with CRLF line endings. At the same time, this prevents users from
seeing whitespace-only changes in the editor's git blame

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
