Change Notes:

- Added helix selection sanitation code that directly mirrors the code
in the Vim
[`visual_motion`](b6728c080c/crates/vim/src/visual.rs (L237))
method. I kept the comments from the Vim section that explains its
purpose.
- The above change converted the problem from fixing `v e` to fixing `v
w`. Since `w` is treated differently in Helix than in Vim (i.e. `w` in
Vim goes to the first character of a word and `w` in Helix goes to the
character before a word. Commented
[here](b6728c080c/crates/vim/src/helix.rs (L132))),
the code treats `w` in `HelixSelect` as a motion that differs from the
Vim motion in the same way that the function
[`helix_move_cursor`](b6728c080c/crates/vim/src/helix.rs (L353))
separates these behaviors.
- Added a regression test

Release Notes:

- Fixes bug where `Vim::NextWordEnd` in `HelixSelect` would not select
whole word.

Licensing

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.
