I start to sound like a Jujutsu fanboy but... Jujutsu already does this. I had agent screwing up changeset over couple hour long session and it took one shell command to split on pieces with longer pause. The only downside is that because of Jujutsu snapshots it can't be used inside sandbox (since all jj commands are mutating)

#42Why develop this when the core editor is almost unusable? On Linux wayland, copypaste is broken, the file manager is laggy and snippets do not trigger before the heavy hint logic is done. This is just on top of my head, the list is long
Re: Zed DeltaDB
#43What problem does this product solve?
See https://zed.dev/blog/introducing-deltadb but also https://zed.dev/blog/crdts from years ago.

Shit, as someone who uses Zed everyday, I didn't realize what I am using is unusable.

#47Earlier quoted context omitted.
This local history has saved my bacon on occasion. E.g. when I went too long without committing and something silly overwrote the file I was working on. Or because I did something silly with git. Then it is nice that there is still an independent backup elsewhere with different failure modes.
Like a branch on the server?
Also I’ve had formatters botch files including changes I hadn’t committed yet. For that the local edit history is also useful.

Terrible Linux support.

#49Basically what IntelliJ calls local history . It is a feature that has saved my bacon. https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/local-history.html
Similar, but not as polished, also exists in VSCode and derivatives, named the same way. Definitely saved me a few times as well.
