Gram release 3.3.0

Screenshot of the Gram editor using the Ferra theme

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure what to highlight in this release so I added a screenshot with the Ferra theme, which is not new in this release but relatively new.

New features include updated and improved git panel and history views, better smooth scrolling implementation by using exponential smoothing, improved Supertab completion, toggle actions for all of the side panels and support for loading extensions installed by a system package manager.

Most of the changes are bug fixes.

As usual, huge thank you to all the contributors and users! <3

Downloads will as usual be available on Codeberg.

Cheers,

@krig

Fixed

  • Fix FsWatcher::add to correctly check watched ancestors on macOS (#406) by @sir_nacnud
  • Don't remove window handle from workspace store if another workspace refers to it (#407) by @jasonmader
  • Remove mention of LLMs in docs/remote-development (#396) by @mayas
  • Downgrade embed-resource to 3.0.9 for Windows compatibility (#390)
  • Fix multiple menus entries on some Linux distributions (#394) by @koru

  • Render file names in the git panel on a single line (zed#60862)

  • Refresh git state after committing, so the panel no longer lists the committed files until the next reload

  • Refresh git state after resetting, fetching and pulling, so the panel and the ahead/behind counts stay current (zed#60590)

  • Size the commit modal from the buffer font it renders in, rather than the narrower UI font, so it fits the commit message
