Separate from the watch loop above, and the reason it was found: these tests count frames across a window they advance a virtual clock over, but the pane runs its own git pipeline off a 300ms timer on that same clock, and nothing advanced it while a test waited for the panel to settle. So the pane's first `git` run was set off by the measurement itself, and the repaint it lands with fell inside the counted window or just after it depending on how fast git ran. That is what made #523 a flake rather than a failure — five red runs across both runners, none reproducible on an idle machine. `test_window::quiesce` pumps the virtual clock until a round draws nothing, the pane's probe has answered for the directory, and no debounce window is still open — and then requires that quiet to hold for 400ms of real time, because the kernel is a third clock: watch events for a test's own setup writes are still being delivered long after every future it can wait on has resolved. There is deliberately no real-time exposure left in the counted windows. Real time is a channel input arrives on, and a test that spends it inside a frame count is asking to be handed some. `ui::file_tree`'s five render-idle tests had the same latent race and had simply not been unlucky yet; they are fixed here rather than left to be filed again. `ScmData::is_debouncing` is `cfg(test)`.
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty
English · 简体中文
Why
- Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine
- Native SSH — profiles, SFTP, port forwarding, and jump hosts
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, git context
- CLI + Skills — agents create panes, run commands, and inspect output
