logiguard fork: GPUI xdg-activation keyboard-focus serial fix
Single-commit orphan branch: full zed-industries/zed @ 8c74db0 source tree
with a 3-file patch applied (no upstream history).

Patch (crates/gpui_linux/src/linux/wayland/):
  - serial.rs: add SerialKind::KeyboardEnter
  - client.rs: store wl_keyboard.enter serial; add latest_serial_of()
  - window.rs: activate() uses keyboard-enter serial (Mutter focus gate)

Mutter honors window activation only when the token carries the keyboard-
focus serial from wl_keyboard.enter; GPUI used a stale mouse-press serial.
See docs/tray-window-focus-wayland.md in logiguard.

Contacts and Private Calls Add contacts and start private collaboration sessions in Zed.

Contacts and Private Calls

Private calls provide ad-hoc collaboration sessions outside of channels. Add contacts to your list and start calls with one or more people.

Adding a Contact

  1. In the Collaboration Panel, click the + button next to the Contacts section
  2. Search for the contact using their GitHub handle.
    Note: Your contact must be an existing Zed user who has completed the GitHub authentication sign-in flow.
  3. Your contact will receive a notification. Once they accept, you'll both appear in each other's contact list.

Private Calls

To start a private call:

  1. Click the ... menu next to an online contact's name in the Collaboration Panel.
  2. Click Call <username>

Once you've begun a private call, you can add other online contacts by clicking their name in the Collaboration Panel.


Private calls work like channels, without channel-specific features such as channel notes.
