* feat(vcs): IDEA's diff algorithm and change colouring in the diff viewer
Port IntelliJ's text comparison to TypeScript (src/features/vcs/comparison):
Myers/patience LCS with unique-element discarding, ByLine (smart matching
that skips unimportant lines, chunk optimizer, second-step correction),
ByWord (word chunks, punctuation matching, whitespace policies, line block
splitting) and ComparisonManager's compareLinesInner / processBlocks. The
port runs IntelliJ's own LineComparisonUtilTest, WordComparisonUtilTest and
SplitComparisonUtilTest cases (459 runs), converted to ideaCases.json.
MergeView chunks now come straight from these line fragments, with the
inner word fragments as chunk changes, instead of @codemirror/merge's
presentable diff. Revert and >> / << replace lines as
DiffUtil.applyModification does.
Colour changes as IDEA does: modified (blue), inserted (green) and deleted
(grey) by chunk type, a lighter line background for chunks whose words were
compared, each word fragment in its own type at full line height, a thin
bar for a fragment empty on one side, and the colours carried into the
gutters and the divider bands. New --diff-modified / --diff-inserted /
--diff-deleted theme tokens, imported from .icls DIFF_* attributes.
Add a Playwright suite over a generated git repository of diff cases,
including 10,000-line files, in every viewer mode.

The side-by-side diff gets two independent options. Synchronize Scrolling (toolbar lock, also in the settings menu, on by default) scrolls both panes together; Align Changes (settings menu, off by default) pads the panes so changes line up. With Align Changes off, the panes keep their own heights and a divider of curved bands joins each change, with arrows to apply it; scrolling one pane moves the other through the matching change (anchored at a third of the height), including caret moves and the wheel over the divider. Scroll mapping and the divider look up changes by binary search, so large files with thousands of changes scroll smoothly.

Find in the diff viewer (⌘F / ⌘R / ⌘G) opens the editor's find bar instead of CodeMirror's search panel: same field, Match Case / Words / Regex, counter, navigation, filter menu and highlights. In the side-by-side viewer the bar sits over the side with the caret, Replace is offered only on editable sides, and the shortcuts come from the keymap. Esc closes the bar even while a match is selected.

* feat(nav): Complete file paths and flag unresolved web file references
Path completion in href/src/url()/@import, Markdown links and path-like strings, folders first. HTML and CSS paths that name no file get a 'Cannot resolve file' warning. File references resolve in the backend like IDEA's: relative to the file, /-rooted against the project and resource roots.
* feat: Align editor, workbench, run/debug and VCS interactions with IntelliJ IDEA
Keymap
- Let AltGr characters through instead of firing Ctrl+Alt shortcuts (Windows/Linux)
- Double Shift: strict press/release timing, ignored while typing or after Shift+click
- Chords wait 2s and swallow an unmatched second stroke
- Drop CodeMirror defaults that clash with IDEA keys; ⌘Enter is Split Line, add
Scroll to Center and Code Block Start/End
- Add missing IDEA defaults (⌃J, ⌘Y, ⇧⌘C, ⌥⌘Y, ⇧⌘M, F9 Resume, ⌘R Rerun, …)
Editor
- Tab inserts at the caret; smart Backspace to the proper indent; Enter continues
a `//` comment; per-language line comment placement
- Back/Forward records navigations only; ⌘F searches the selected text
- In-place rename; ⌃Space inserts a sole candidate; commit characters only for a
focused lookup; usage highlighting survives edits; ⌥Enter offers fixes from the
caret line; ⌘-hover shows declaration info only for navigable targets
Workbench
- Tool windows: primary and split area per side, six Move To anchors, layout migration
- ⌘W closes tool window content; Shift+Esc from the editor; closing a tab
activates the left neighbour; preview tab and tab limit follow IDEA defaults
- Switcher lists open editors and tool windows; Recent Files Delete removes items
- Search Everywhere tab/scope behaviour; popups close when the window deactivates
- Project view: Copy/Move dialogs on paste, skippable usage search on delete,
new-file input cancels on blur; Settings search Esc clears the filter
- Status bar breadcrumbs open a children popup; notification timeouts
Run / Debug / Build / Terminal
- Run asks to stop a running single-instance config; Rerun restarts silently;
"Allow multiple instances" option
- Run chooser: Enter runs, Shift debugs, F4/Delete/digits
- Type into the console for stdin; Stop covers debug sessions
- Log (Shift+click) and temporary (Alt+click) breakpoints; independent suspend/log
options; Evaluate prefill and history; changed-value highlighting; expandable hints
- Build window opens on failure and jumps to the first error
- Terminal confirms closing a busy tab and lets IDE shortcuts through
VCS
- Correct ours/theirs labels during rebase, cherry-pick and revert
- Smart/Force Checkout; remote branch checkout updates the local branch
- Partial commit by changed block; inline before-commit check results
- F7 continues into the next file; Rollback Lines; Commit and Push; Amend message swap
- Branch delete with Restore; force push confirmation; editable push target;
update summary with the incoming commits
* chore: Regenerate bindings
