fix(diffs): Handle IME composition input Fixes the following issue: 1. Open an editable diffs editor and place the caret in content. 2. Start a CJK IME or accented/dead-key composition. 3. Type a preview candidate, then commit it or press Esc to cancel. Previously, each preview beforeinput was prevented and warned as an unknown input type, so the browser could not show native preview text and canceled composition text could still be inserted on compositionend. Let insertCompositionText beforeinput events stay with the browser. Track composition updates and only commit non-canceled compositionend data into the editor model. Add regression coverage for preview, commit, warning noise, and canceled composition text. Also guard the selectionchange handler against browsers and embedded WebViews that lack Selection.getComposedRanges, which previously threw out of the listener on every selection change and left the editable surface unusable.
* [diffs/editor] Support editing unified diffs and refresh diff view on edit Allow the editor to edit unified diffs by syncing the render view against the FileDiff metadata (additions) instead of a separate addition file, and mark deletion/annotation lines non-editable in unified mode. Replace the post-edit `updateLineType` path with `refreshDiffView`/`fastRefreshDiffView` so the diff view re-renders correctly after edits. * Fix home live editor reset when toggling mode Include `mode` in the editable surface memo deps so switching modes recreates the surface instead of reusing a stale instance. --------- Co-authored-by: Mark Otto <markdotto@gmail.com>
Steps to reproduce: 1. Scroll a long file so the editor virtualizes (only a window of lines is rendered). 2. With a caret near the window bottom, insert lines there - press Enter on the last rendered line, or paste a few lines. 3. The just-typed line, and its caret, are missing from the window until the next scroll. #applyChange widened the render range only when the caret was exactly at the window's end, and never persisted the widened range, so a following edit read a stale renderRangeEndLine, treated the caret as past the window, and #rerender (clamped to the range) never built the new row; #isLineVisible/#renderCaret read the stale range and dropped the caret too. (Only edits that carry a caret reach this path - it is guarded on `selections` - so a bare programmatic applyEdits with no active selection is unaffected; the real triggers are typing and paste at the window bottom.) Widen the range to cover the caret line for inserts that reach the window's bottom edge and persist it to #renderRange so consecutive edits stay accurate and the caret draws. Bound that widening two ways so it can't defeat virtualization or render a gap. Cap it at twice the bounded window the virtualizer last synced (captured in __syncRenderView as #viewportWindowLines): a large insert at the caret - most often a big multi-line paste - can drop the caret far below the window, and widening to reach it would build a row per inserted line synchronously, risking a freeze. And skip widening when the edit starts below the window, since #rerender only builds rows from change.startLine - widening there would leave the intervening rows unbuilt while reporting them visible, mispositioning the new rows. Past either limit, keep the bounded window and only recompute the buffer, leaving the far region for the scroll that follows a focused edit (or the next user scroll) to render. Capturing the window at sync time also stops consecutive edits from ratcheting the cap up. Add editorVirtualizedEdit.test.ts: consecutive newlines and a small multi-line insert at the window bottom render; a 1000-line insert, a run of consecutive inserts, and an edit starting below the window all keep the rendered window bounded and contiguous.
Open a split diff with word wrap on and edit a line so it wraps onto several rows. Double-click a word on a wrapped row: the word is selected and the caret lands correctly, but the highlight is drawn at the row's left edge instead of over the word. Selecting whole lines across a multi-line range shows the same shift. In a split diff the editable panel sits to the right of the deletion panel. The caret math adds this horizontal panel offset, but the selection-highlight math did not, so every highlight was pulled left by the offset (its width stayed correct). Add the same content offset when computing the highlight's left edge, for both wrapped rows and selections that start at the beginning of a line.
In a split diff with word wrap on, edit a line so it wraps, then turn word wrap off. Select a whole line from its start: the highlight either vanishes or jumps far to the right of the text. #contentOffset caches the split panel's horizontal shift but is only set in a split + wrap diff and never cleared, so toggling wrap off leaves a stale value on the same editor. The selection start added that stale offset while the end (from #getCharX) did not, giving a negative width. Read the offset through a getter that returns it only while the live layout still applies, so caret, selection, and line-Y math all ignore a stale value.
* Phase 1: Setup the new slot architecture * Phase 2: Vanilla API shenanery * Phase 3: React implementation * Phase 4: Add CodeView support * Add demo-ability * Phase 5: Adding misc tests * Phase 6: Adding docs Both for the new API and also some forgotten docs for header prefix
…r#879) [diffs/editor] Updated `editor.css` for marker popups to improve layout and responsiveness
Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a diff in edit mode and edit a line (e.g. rename a symbol). 2. Toggle any display option - word wrap, theme, diff style, line numbers. 3. The edit vanishes and the line shows its original text again; it only reappears on the next keystroke. When an editor is attached, its document is the source of truth for the content, but the host passes a static fileDiff. A display-option change forces a full re-render that rebuilds the diff rows from that fileDiff, so the in-progress edits are painted over with the original content - and inserted or deleted lines are lost. After a full re-render, when the editor's document survived it and the rendered rows no longer match it, re-render the diff from the document: rerenderFromDocument re-derives the diff and clears the render cache so the rebuild re-highlights from the edited contents. One pass restores text, syntax colors, and line count, with no per-row reconciliation. The diff is mutated in place so its cacheKey is kept and the editor's document and undo history survive. Gated to full re-renders (a scroll's partial render reuses the existing rows) and to components with a document-backed re-render (FileDiff; the plain File has no such path yet). Host-agnostic: this holds whether or not the host sets a cacheKey. Adds a regression test covering the toggle, further typing, an inserted line via both render APIs, and downstream block-comment highlighting - all with no cacheKey. Co-authored-by: Je Xia <i@jex.me>
* chore: empty commit for beta branch * Prevent transparent borders * Fix the editing example * fix cursor jumping in history demo * wip * updates * button fixes, history improvement * refactor(diffs): show the selection action in a floating popover Selecting text in an editable surface used to surface a lightning icon in the gutter; clicking it inserted the consumer's action element as a new inline row, which reflowed the document and took two interactions. Replace that with a floating popover that appears automatically once a ranged selection settles, anchored just below the selection's head and mounted in the overlay layer so it never reflows the content. The `renderSelectionAction` API is unchanged, and its handlers now read the live primary selection so keyboard-extending a selection keeps acting on the current range. Drop the now-unused gutter icon, its `quick` sprite, and the inline-row styling. * docs(docs): rebuild the selection action demo as "Add to chat" The edit page's selection demo wrapped the selection in t() or shouted it in caps from a toolbar. Rebuild it around the new popover: selecting code pops an indigo "Add to chat" action (plus a secondary copy) that sends the snippet to a mock chat panel beside the editor, complete with an inert composer mirroring the homepage agent UI. Snippets render with a read-only File. The page's shared worker pool is wired for the editable surface and doesn't highlight a dynamically mounted read-only File, so opt these out with disableWorkerPool and highlight on the main thread. The panel is height-matched to the editor so the list scrolls while the header and composer stay put. * docs(docs): describe the selection action popover Update the editor docs and copy to match the new behavior: the action appears in a floating popover anchored to the selection instead of a gutter icon you click, and it can hold any number of actions. Refresh the edit-page blurb, the Editor guide prose, and the option comment, and drop the selection action from the standalone EditorDemo so it stays focused on plain editing. * chore(demo): match the renamed selection action popover hook The selection action now renders as a popover, so target the new [data-selection-action-popover] selector and drop the inline margin that spaced the old inline action row. * test(diffs): cover selection action popover lifecycle Add cases for the popover's auto show/teardown: it disappears once the selection collapses, and it never renders (nor calls the consumer's callback) when enabledSelectionAction is left off. * feature updates * New replace and replaceall icons * better search shortcuts * Update keyboard shorcuts table * refactor search, fix some nits, redo icons in search, combine marker severity styles * remove labels * use claude to restore the delta between X's and my changes, then reapply to markers and popovers * improve focus, rearrange * localize the padding/margin for now --------- Co-authored-by: Amadeus Demarzi <amadeusdemarzi@gmail.com>

`additionLines`/`deletionLines` change from `string[]` to `DiffLines`: a plain
data object holding a file's lines as one UTF-8 byte arena plus an offset table,
decoded on demand via `lineAt` / `joinLines`. On a huge diff (linux v6..v7,
~22.8M lines across ~77k files) this avoids tens of millions of tiny `String`
objects, so the V8 heap drops ~33% on that compare and the parser is faster: it
no longer encode+decode-detaches every line, it encodes once on seal and decodes
only the visible (virtualized) lines.
It is plain data on purpose, so it survives structured clone (the highlight
worker), `structuredClone`, and IndexedDB without a revive step (no class, no
prototype to drop). `.length` stays a field, so the many `.length` consumers are
unchanged; only content reads migrate (`x[i]` -> `lineAt(x, i)`,
`x.join('')` -> `joinLines(x)`). Per-file offsets use the smallest int width that
fits the file. A file with a lone surrogate keeps exact strings as a fallback,
and merge-conflict diffs keep plain strings (no encode) so their parse stays at
parity. The parsed model is byte-identical to before (snapshot + content-hash).
The editor's realtime-update path edits addition lines in place
(DiffHunksRenderer.updateRenderCache / updateDiffHunks), so diffLines also
exposes mutableLines (decode an arena side into the plain form once, on the
first edit) and joinLineRange (read a hunk's line range as one contiguous byte
slice for the partial reparse). Whole-document changes reassign the side with
plainLines(splitFileContents(...)), keeping the editor on plain strings while
it is editing.
Adds diffLines.test.ts (arena round-trip, multibyte, emoji-keeps-arena, lone-surrogate fallback, BOM, offset-width, plainLines, joinLines, isWellFormed) and a withPlainLines snapshot converter so the existing parsed-model snapshots assert byte-identical line content. The audited tests' direct string[] reads move to the DiffLines helpers (lineAt / linesToArray / plainLines), and the updateDiffHunks fixtures edit lines through the plain form like the editor does.
processFileBytes parses a single file's diff straight from its UTF-8 bytes: only the file header and the @@ hunk header lines are decoded into JS strings, every content line's bytes are copied verbatim into the per-side arenas and decoded on demand by lineAt, so a parse allocates no per-line strings and no per-line garbage. The per-side byte arena is filled by a small SideBuilder (appendLine / sealSide) that sits in diffLines.ts next to finishLines, so every way of building a DiffLines lives in one module, while parsePatchFiles keeps only the byte scanners that walk the patch structure. It is the only hunk-content parser: processFile encodes its string once up front and hands the bytes over, and the full-file path (parseDiffFromFile, merge conflicts) rides the same loop: the patch bytes drive the hunk structure while the sides keep coming from the caller's contents strings through finishLines, like before. The previous per-line string loop and its helpers go away. Two byte-only behaviors to know about: invalid UTF-8 stays as-is in the arena and decodes to U+FFFD on read (the same text a stream decode produces), and a patch string holding a lone surrogate (which the up-front encode would corrupt) gets its exact line strings rebuilt from the original text into the plain-string form, so the surrogate-preservation behavior is unchanged. The parsed model is hash-identical to the previous parser on linux v6.0..v7.0 (76,872 files, 22.8M lines, every line compared).
streamGitPatchFiles moves into the package as a byte-level splitter: the patch stream buffers as bytes and each file is handed over as a Uint8Array slice at its diff --git boundary, ready for processFileBytes, so the bulk of the patch is never decoded into JS strings. Format-patch commit metadata splits on the From <hash> boundary like the string splitter did, a stream-leading BOM is stripped like a whole-stream TextDecoder would, and a boundary-less patch falls back to one decoded string for parsePatchFiles. The byte scanners and ASCII byte codes shared by the splitter and the file parser (matchesAscii, lineEndExclusive, a generic findNextLineStartingWith, isBlankLine, hasNonWhitespace, and the byte constants) now live in one byteScan module, defined once and kept out of the package's public exports. diffshub's viewer feeds the slices straight to processFileBytes; its own string splitter goes away, and it imports COMMIT_HASH_METADATA_PATTERN from the package instead of keeping a second copy.
Chunk-size sweeps over the file boundary splitting (including one-byte chunks), per-file model parity between the streamed bytes and the string entry, format-patch metadata attachment, stream-leading vs in-file BOM, the unified-diff fallback, and the invalid-UTF-8 read-back.

Awesome! We are right now in the process of trying to get the editor branch merged into main (targeting next week some time). So as soon as we land that, i'll look into this closer. One kinda interesting this is we might start looking at doing some byte arena stuff for our semantic highlighting APIs, so something like this might also have a natural fit in landing with that (which is still a bit further out) |

Hey, just got the notification for this |

Oh that's annoying. This just happened automatically because i rebased merged the beta branch into main. Github doing github things. i think you just have to edit it to be against main now and rebase against main |

Ah, its about time someone makes an alternative isn't it |
Description
This PR brings the two proposed experiments from #760 together in one cleaner change on top of
beta-1.3.The goal is to store each file's diff lines as a per-file UTF-8 byte arena (meaning that it's just contiguous bytes in a UTF-8 byte array), and parsing the patch straight into that arena as it streams, instead of building tons of JS strings per line.
The suggested approach in this PR produces byte-identical parsed output to today's string approach
So whats in there:
string[]. Each side of a file (before/after) packs all its lines into one UTF-8Uint8Array(bytes) + a smallInt32Array(offsets) of per line offsets; so a line is justdecode(bytes[offsets[i]..offsets[i+1]])string[]to a custom typeDiffLinesdata object. So reads arelineAt(lines, i)andjoinLines(lines)instead oflines[i]andlines.join('')diff --git/@@headers to build the structure. This makes parsing noticeably faster and steadier (see benchmarks below)TextDecoder). A nice side effect on huge diffs (on my hardware, Air M2): fast-scrolling to a far-away file no longer flashes blank rows for a beat before the text paints. I'm farily sure that's because the whole tab is so much lighter now, not the decode itselfbeta-1.3from yesterday, so I think I took everything you've already merged about the parsing into accountNote: I left a bunch of
// Adapted from ...comments here and there, for functions and stuff I just adapted from before. I don't think its worth keeping but that might help for a reviewI also did some opinionated stuff about how I organized my functions and chose to represent data, please let me know if things should be changed!
Results:
The after-GC renderer footprint (of after a stream is settled for long enough), in MB, mean of 3 runs, measured on my VPS:
For the linux comparison, the peak memory usage while streaming also drops from 4259 (avg) to 2162 (avg), about half less. This is also true for the parsing time (in CPU time used), dropping from 107s to 42.5s (-2.5x).
Motivation & Context
As I said in #775, I'm getting OOM errors on diffshub with linux v6...v7's compare. This fixes it for me (and should for a bunch of different hardware), and also makes the parsing/memory usage more stable
The results of my testing are clear: for instance on linux's compare, its saving about 50% of memory usage, drastically reduces the peak memory usage, and makes the parsing ~2.5x faster. I (my clanked) made this page diffshub-bench.clemg.fr that allows you to start benchmarks on any PR of compare on 3 versions of diffshub: diffshub's main, beta branch and this proposed branch. It runs on my slow as fuck VPS but allows to compare remotely a lot of tests on the same hardware, without setup. It also has some already ran tests for you to check if you want
From my testings, I haven't found any issue on rendering the CodeView component, the docs, the editor or anything already existing. You should obviously try it for yourself because you know this much better than I do
Since you (Amadeus) mentioned that it was easier for you to test everything in one go, this PR shadows the other other one (that I should close?).
Anyway, happy to discuss the whys and the hows of this, and suggestions if you have any
