Show a modal when invoking the stash action to allow users to provide an optional custom message for the stash entry. Closes #62430 # Image <img width="1622" height="1106" alt="Screenshot 2026-08-10 at 9 14 00 PM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0d26dac2-919d-4bb1-b6a7-433ceff18955" /> <img width="1622" height="1106" alt="Screenshot 2026-08-10 at 9 14 11 PM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/896b68ff-999f-4ec9-a6a4-e0e7a6867286" /> # Objective Zed's stash action runs `git stash push --quiet --include-untracked --` with no `-m`, so every stash is labelled with git's auto-generated `WIP on <branch>: <sha> <subject>`. That text describes the commit you were sitting on, not what you stashed — so two stashes taken from the same commit are indistinguishable. This undercuts the stash picker (`git::ViewStash`), which lists entries as `#<index>: <message>` and fuzzy-searches over exactly that string. The search box already exists; there is just nothing meaningful to search, because every candidate is a variation of the same auto-generated line. ## Solution `git::StashAll` now opens a single-line modal ("Optionally provide a stash message") before stashing. - Confirming with text passes `--message <text>` to `git stash push`. - Confirming with the field empty omits the flag entirely, keeping git's default description — so the prompt is a one-keystroke pass-through and existing muscle memory still works. - Cancelling aborts the stash, so the prompt doubles as a confirmation step. Implementation: - `StashMessageModal` (`Editor::single_line`) in `git_panel.rs`, toggled from `GitPanel::stash_all`. `menu::Confirm` trims the input and maps empty to `None`. - `message: Option<String>` threaded through `Repository::stash_all` → `stash_entries` → `GitRepository::stash_paths`. The flag is appended before the `--` separator so a message is never parsed as a pathspec. - New `message` field on the `Stash` proto message, so remote and collab projects behave identically. One non-obvious detail: the modal is opened via `cx.defer_in` rather than inline. `git::StashAll` is registered on the workspace (`git_ui.rs`) as well as on the panel element, and `Workspace::register_action` dispatches while `Workspace` is leased — so opening the modal inline re-enters that update and hits GPUI's `double_lease_panic`. This only reproduces when focus is *outside* the Git Panel, which makes it easy to miss. `Option<String>` rather than `String` is deliberate: `--message ""` produces a blank stash description, which is strictly worse than git's default. ## Testing Manually verified the modal in a local build on macOS: the prompt appears on `git::StashAll`, accepts a message, and the named entry shows up in the stash picker. Also verified at the git level by replaying the exact argument vector `stash_paths` builds against a scratch repo with mixed staged / unstaged / untracked changes: | Case | Result | |---|---| | `stash push --quiet --include-untracked --message "my named stash" -- <paths>` | `stash@{0}: my named stash`; worktree clean, untracked file included | | same, without `--message` | `stash@{0}: <sha> <subject>` — git's default text | | `--message "x" --` with no paths (clean repo) | exit 0, no stash created — the empty pathspec does **not** stash everything | `cargo fmt --check` clean, `./script/clippy -p git -p fs -p project -p git_ui` passes with `--deny warnings`, and the existing suites pass (`cargo test -p project -p git_ui`, 436 tests). Worth a reviewer's attention: trigger `git::StashAll` with focus in the **editor** rather than the Git Panel. That routes through the workspace action registration and is the case the `cx.defer_in` deferral exists to keep from panicking. No new automated tests — the behavior is testable with the existing `git_panel.rs` harness (`init_test`, `GitPanel::new`) if reviewers would prefer coverage over a manual check. ## Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments — n/a, no unsafe added - [x] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards ([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) and [icon](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md) guidelines) - [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior — no new tests; see Testing - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable — one extra process argument; no new work on any hot path --- Release Notes: - Added an optional stash message prompt when stashing changes ` --------- Co-authored-by: Chris Biscardi <chris@christopherbiscardi.com> |
