Enhancements

General

• Added GitHub Copilot Chat support (#4673; thanks Hawkbawk).

Once you've signed into GitHub Copilot within Zed, Copilot Chat should be available as an option in the model dropdown in the assistant.

• Added double-click to create a new file when clicking on blank space in the project panel (#15353; thanks ssut).
• Added support for tab switcher in Assistant panel (#15475).
• Use ctrl-enter to summon the inline assistant in the terminal, which lets you generate terminal commands based on your description.
  • Check out the demo.
• Improved restoring of windows across restarts: the order of the windows is now also restored. That means windows that were in the foreground when Zed was quit will be in the foreground after restart. Supported on MacOS and Linux/X11, not yet on Linux/Wayland (#15419).
  • Check out the video video!
• Added the ability to select and copy text from diagnostic popovers (#12695; thanks effdotsh).
• Added support for font fallbacks via three new settings: ui_font_fallbacks, buffer_font_fallbacks, and terminal.font_fallbacks (#5180, #5055).
• Changed the project panel to auto fold directories by default.
• Linux/X11: Support for keyboard layout hot plugging (#15059; thanks XDeme1).
• Unsaved files that are restored when Zed starts are now marked as having a conflict if they have been changed on disk since the last time they were stored (#15207).
• Updated tree-sitter parsers for core languages (#4565).
• Improved performance when computing indent guides for buffers with extremely long lines (#15167).

• Added an option to copy the file's absolute path from within the tab context menu (#13970; thanks HarshNarayanJha).
• Improved the environment-variable detection when running tasks so that tasks can now access environment variables as if the task had been spawned in a terminal that cded into a project directory. That means environment variables set by direnv/asdf/mise and other tools are now picked up (#12125).
  • Check out the video!
• Added a button to preview Markdown files in the toolbar. Option|Alt+Click will open the preview to the side (#15215).
