When revamping international keyboard shortcuts I wanted to make the
default to use key equivalents; in hindsight, this is not what people
expect.
Release Notes:
- (Breaking) In keymap.json `"use_layout_keys": true` is now the
default. If you want to opt-out of this behaviour, set
`"use_key_equivalents": true` to have keys mapped for your keyboard. See
[documentation](https://zed.dev/docs/key-bindings#non-qwerty-keyboards)

Closes #16343Closes#10972
Release Notes:
- (breaking change) On macOS when using a keyboard that supports an
extended Latin character set (e.g. French, German, ...) keyboard
shortcuts are automatically updated so that they can be typed without
`option`. This fixes several long-standing problems where some keyboards
could not type some shortcuts.
- This mapping works the same way as
[macOS](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/keyboardshortcut(_:modifiers:localization:)).
For example on a German keyboard shortcuts like `cmd->` become `cmd-:`,
`cmd-[` and `cmd-]` become `cmd-ö` and `cmd-ä`. This mapping happens at
the time keyboard layout files are read so the keybindings are visible
in the command palette. To opt out of this behavior for your custom
keyboard shortcuts, set `"use_layout_keys": true` in your binding
section. For the mappings used for each layout [see
here](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/a890df1863ca939ee7f0ada6e629b6f83eb18bc5/crates/settings/src/key_equivalents.rs#L7).

Release Notes:
- Improved `workspace::SendKeystrokes` to support re-binding keys. For
example you can now do: `"x": ["workspace::SendKeystrokes", "\" _ x"]`
in vim mode to ensure that `x` does not clobber your clipboard.
- Improved key binding documentation
Adds support for [Goto
Declaration](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#textDocument_declaration)
LSP command.
I am particularly interested in [this for Rust
projects](https://rust-analyzer.github.io/manual.html#go-to-declaration),
to be able to navigate to the place where a trait method is declared,
coming from a trait method implementation.
I noticed this was something I could do in VSCode before, but was
somehow missing is Zed. Thanks to the already existing infrastructure
for Goto Definition, I just followed and copy-paste-adapted it for Goto
Declaration.
As a bonus, I added `ctrl-F12` and `alt-ctrl-F12` as default macOS
keybindings for `GoToDeclaration` and `GoToDeclarationSplit`,
respectively. They are not keybindings from another editor, but I
figured they made sense to be grouped along with the other *F12
commands.
### Release Notes:
- Added "Go to declaration" editor action.
- vim: Breaking change to keybindings after introduction of the `Go to
declaration` editor action. The new keybindings are the following (and
can be found [here](https://zed.dev/docs/vim), alongside the other key
bindings):
- `g d` - Go to definition
- `g D` - Go to declaration
- `g y` - Go to type definition
- `g I` - Go to implementation

It is sometimes desirable to allow modifers to serve as keys themselves
for the purposes of keybinds. For example, the popular keybind in
jetbrains IDEs `shift shift` which opens the file finder.
This change treats modifers in the keymaps as keys themselves if they
are not accompanied by a key they are modifying.
Further this change wires up they key dispatcher to treat modifer change
events as key presses which are considered for matching against
keybinds.
Release Notes:
- Fixes#6460

- Docs: Tasks: Explicitly note the location of `tasks.json` files.
- Docs: Keybindings: Add link to task docs showing example of binding to
a specific task.
Release Notes:
- N/A
`base_keymap` is a property of `settings.json`, not `keymap.json`. If
you run "toggle base keymap selector" and select a particular editor,
you will notice that it places the `base_keymap` property in
`settings.json`.
