Introduce `VariableName` enum to simplify Zed task templating
management: now all the variables can be looked up statically and can be
checked/modified in a centralized way: e.g. `ZED_` prefix is now added
for all such custom vars.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This PR also introduces built-in tasks for Rust and Elixir. Note that
this is not a precedent for future PRs to include tasks for more
languages; we simply want to find the rough edges with tasks & language
integrations before proceeding to task contexts provided by extensions.
As is, we'll load tasks for all loaded languages, so in order to get
Elixir tasks, you have to open an Elixir buffer first. I think it sort
of makes sense (though it's not ideal), as in the future where
extensions do provide their own tasks.json, we'd like to limit the # of
tasks surfaced to the user to make them as relevant to the project at
hand as possible.
Release Notes:
- Added built-in tasks for Rust and Elixir files.
We can convert shell, npm and gulp tasks to a Zed format. Additionally, we convert a subset of task variables that VsCode supports.
Release notes:
- Zed can now load tasks in Visual Studio Code task format

* Add a `reveal: always|never` field in task definitions from tasks.json
, allowing to customize task terminal behavior on spawn
* Ensure reveal: always reveals the terminal even if the old task is
already running
Release Notes:
- Added a `reveal: always|never` (`always` is a default) field in task
definitions from tasks.json , allowing to customize task terminal
behavior on spawn

This PR supplements tasks with additional environment variables; ideally
we'll be able to write a task like:
`cargo test -p $ZED_CURRENT_PACKAGE -- $ZED_CURRENT_FUNCTION`
- [x] Flesh out multibuffer interactions
- [x] Add ZED_SYMBOL detection based on tree-sitter queries
- [ ] Add release note and demo
- [x] Figure out a solution for rerun dilemma - should `task: rerun`
reevaluate contexts for tasks?
This PR introduced the following variables:
- ZED_COLUMN - current line column
- ZED_ROW - current line row
and the following, which are available for buffers with associated
files:
- ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT - absolute path to the root of the current worktree.
- ZED_FILE - absolute path to the file
- ZED_SYMBOL - currently selected symbol; should match the last symbol
shown in a symbol breadcrumb (e.g. `mod tests > fn test_task_contexts`
should be equal to ZED_SYMBOL of `test_task_contexts`). Note that this
isn't necessarily a test function or a function at all.
Also, you can use them in `cwd` field of definitions (note though that
we're using https://docs.rs/subst/latest/subst/#features for that, so
don't expect a full shell functionality to work); the syntax should
match up with your typical Unix shell.
Release Notes:
- Added task contexts, which are additional environment variables set by
Zed for task execution; task content is dependent on the state of the
editor at the time the task is spawned.

That way one can use environment variables in task definitions.
Fixes: #8660
/cc @SomeoneToIgnore it looks like we don't ever set `separate_shell` to
false anymore, it might be worth streamlining?
Release Notes:
- Fixed static tasks not being run under a separate shell.
- Removed `separate_shell` setting from task definitions. It is now a default for tasks defined in tasks.json file.
This changes the format of runnables slightly (the top-level object is
now a sequence, not a map).
The 2nd commit pulls in aliases from .zshrc and co.
Release Notes:
- N/A
