Prior to #7044, on macOS, our shell-integrated command line would be
executed under exec -l, which causes bash to be started as a login
shell. This matches the macOS platform norms.
The change to direct command execution meant that we'd skip that path,
and bash would start as a normal interactive (non-login) shell on macOS.
We fixed this in #7253 by adding `--login` to the `bash` direct command
on macOS.
This avoided some of the overhead of starting an extra process just to
get a login shell, but it unfortunately doesn't quite match the bash
environment we get when shell integration isn't enabled (namely, $0
doesn't get the login-shell-identifying "-" prefix).
Instead, this change implements the approach proposed in #7254, which
switches the bash shell integration path to use a .shell command, giving
us the same execution environment as the non-shell-integrated command.
Fixed: When reflowing content with many graphemes, the code incorrectly
increased hyperlink_bytes capacity
instead of grapheme_bytes, causing GraphemeMapOutOfMemory errors.
Added: An unit test for this specific issue.
This PR was written primarily by Opus.
Closes: #9863

instead of grapheme_bytes, causing GraphemeMapOutOfMemory errors.
Description:
Context menu works on tabs with titlebar-style=tabs on MacOS Tahoe 26
Closes#9817

Note:
- Tried first a passthrough-views approach, but AppKit’s internal
toolbar subviews continued intercepting right-clicks.
- Runtime subclassing proposed by Claude also worked but was rejected as
too fragile.
- Final solution routes secondary-click events at the window level using
sendEvent(_:), forwarding them to the tab bar only when the click is
visually within its bounds.
AI Disclosure:
AI (Claude Code and Codex) assisted with early explorations, but final
implementation was developed manually after evaluating and discarding
the unsafe subclassing approach proposed by Claude.
With this PR, the macos scrollbar always uses the overlay style. If the
OS preferred style is `.legacy`, we flash the scroller when the mouse is
moved over it, such that users can still click and drag without relying
on scroll wheels or gestures.
Implements #9610.
There are a few lines of code that could technically be removed after
this change as they're only needed to make surfaces work correctly with
the legacy scrollbar, but I decided to leave them in since they do no
harm (see code comments). This ensures correct behavior if, for whatever
reason, some corner case brings back the legacy scrollbar, or if someone
decides to experiment with scrollbar styles in the future.
### Background
After #9344, the Ghostty theme won't change after switching systems',
and reverting #9344 will bring back the issue it fixed.
The reason these two issues are related is because the scheme change is
based on changes of `effectiveAppearance`, which is also affected by
setting the window's `appearance` or changing
`NSAppearance.currentDrawing()`.
### Changes
Instead of observing `effectiveAppearance`, we now explicitly update the
color scheme of surfaces, so that we can control when it happens to
avoid callback loops and redundant updates.
### Regression Tests
- [x] #8282
- [x] Reloading with `window-theme = light` should update Ghostty with
the default dark theme with a dark window theme (break before
[#83104ff](83104ff27a))
- [x] `window-theme = light \n macos-titlebar-style = native` should
update Ghostty with the default dark theme with a light window theme
- [x] Reloading from the default config to `theme=light:3024
Day,dark:3024 Night \n window-theme = light`, should update Ghostty with
the theme `3024 Day` with a light window theme (break on
[#d39cc6d](d39cc6d478))
- [x] Using `theme=light:3024 Day,dark:3024 Night`; Switching the
system's appearance should change Ghostty's appearance (break on
[#d39cc6d](d39cc6d478))
- [x] Reloading from `theme=light:3024 Day,dark:3024 Night` with a light
window theme to the default config, should update Ghostty with the
default dark theme with a dark window theme
- [x] Reloading from the default config to `theme=light:3024
Day,dark:3024 Night \n window-theme=dark`, should update Ghostty with
the theme `3024 Night` with a dark window theme
- [x] Reloading from `theme=light:3024 Day,dark:3024 Night \n
window-theme=dark` to `theme=light:3024 Day,dark:3024 Night` with light
system appearance, should update Ghostty from dark to light
- [x] Reload with quick terminal open
When ghostty is used as a Zig dependency, detect this by comparing the
build root with ghostty's source directory. Skip git detection entirely
and use the version from build.zig.zon.
This fixes build failures when downstream projects have git tags that
don't match ghostty's version format. Previously, ghostty would read the
downstream project's git tags and panic at Config.zig:246 with:
\`\`\`
tagged releases must be in vX.Y.Z format matching build.zig
\`\`\`
**Reproduction:**
1. Create a project that uses ghostty as a Zig dependency
2. Tag the project with a version like \`v0.2.0\`
3. Run \`zig build\` → panic
**Fix:**
Use \`@src().file\` to get ghostty's source directory and compare it
with \`b.build_root\`. When they differ, ghostty is a dependency and we
skip git detection.

This adds a new structure `terminal.tmux.Viewer` which continues
building on all the prior tmux control mode work to add a full
bidirectional reconciliation loop to discover and sync terminal states
from tmux to Ghostty and vice versa. **This is the core, cross-platform
business logic that will power the GUIs, later.**
Our prior work were protocol building blocks, and this PR is an actual
functional piece of work. You can now start Ghostty, run `tmux -CC
attach`, and we _will_ be creating full blown terminals internal that
capture the content and mirror the state exactly (barring inevitable
bugs in something this complex). But, we don't yet show them visually.
:) And we don't yet send inputs to it (it's a viewer only, for now).
**This sucked.** The control mode protocol is difficult, to put it
mildly, for a variety of reasons. Correctness of this is going to be
hard. Therefore, I focused really hard on this design to make it **fully
unit test friendly.** We're able to simulate full tmux sessions and runt
through our state machine and assert various states. I think this will
be critical to correctness as we eventually collect real world data.
> [!WARNING]
>
> This does actually have user-impacting changes! When you run `tmux -CC
attach` we will now run our full control mode client. This could result
in bugs or crashes or other problems. This only activates if you have a
real tmux session, though, so it should be avoidable by most users.
Since we don't actually take our state and send it to the GUI or
anything, this should be pretty safe.
**AI disclosure:** I used AI for a lot of the protocol reverse
engineering and documentation to figure out how it all works. I designed
the architecture myself and implemented most of it manually.
