Compatibility Note: this week's preview release (v0.195.x) includes a change to the handling of LSP actions when sharing projects via Zed Collaboration. When a host using the new Zed Preview collaborates with a guest using an older Zed release (<= v0.194.x), or vice versa, go to definition will not work on the guest. This can be fixed by running either the new preview or an older release on both host and guest. Go to definition will work again in mixed stable/preview shared projects after next week's releases.
