## Description
Currently in the picker you cant filter git log pickers by author, the
only option to do that right now is to pass it into the opts when you
call it like lua Snacks.picker.git_log({ author="test" }) but most of
the time I would like to filter interactively and also use the field
filtering offered by snacks like file:lua$ and with this new change,
author:test.

## Description
In certain filesystems — such as bind mounts, NFS, FUSE, or other
mounted paths — uv.fs_scandir_next() may return a nil type for valid
directories. This causes the snacks.nvim explorer to treat mounted
folders as files, making them unexpandable in the UI.
This patch adds a fallback to resolve the correct type when
fs_scandir_next() returns nil. It uses uv.fs_stat() first, and falls
back to vim.fn.isdirectory() if needed.
This ensures that mounted directories are properly marked as navigable.
Code change summary:
- Inside Tree:expand, we now check t == nil
- If so, we call uv.fs_stat() to get the true type
- If fs_stat fails, we fallback to vim.fn.isdirectory
- Final dir = true logic remains intact
Impact:
- Fixes a long-standing bug in mounted directories under /mnt, FUSE,
etc.
- Only runs extra checks when needed (no performance hit for regular
files)
- No changes elsewhere — clean, isolated patch

Hi and thank you for the useful plugin!
## Description
I have been exploring the new picker api and got this git diff picker
working which I think can be a nice addition to the existing set of
picker. The key difference from the existing git_status picker is that
it separates each hunk into its own item similar to `git add --patch`
and when you select an item it takes you to the first hunk's line
instead of top of the buffer. Before I put more effort into it I would
like to see if this is a welcome change first.
This implementation can be further extended by allowing to support
additional arguments such as `--staged`, `--ignore-all-space` or both.
A few points on current implementations. I could not get the per line
parsing to work using the
`require("snacks.picker.source.proc").proc(...)` and fell back to
manually parsing the output after the command finished executing. There
are likely many ways to improve it. I have been using it with telescope
for about a year and so far it worked great. I think more people can
benefit from this picker.

## Description
More info coming tomorrow.
In short:
- very fast. pretty much realtime filtering/sorting in huge repos (like
1.7 million files)
- extensible
- easy to customize the layout (and lots of presets) with
`snacks.layout`
- simple to create custom pickers
- `vim.ui.select`
- lots of builtin pickers
- uses treesitter highlighting wherever it makes sense
- fast lua fuzzy matcher which supports the [fzf
syntax](https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/search-syntax/) and additionally
supports field filters, like `file:lua$ 'function`
There's no snacks picker command, just use lua.
```lua
-- all pickers
Snacks.picker()
-- run files picker
Snacks.picker.files(opts)
Snacks.picker.pick("files", opts)
Snacks.picker.pick({source = "files", ...})
```

## Todo
- [x] issue with preview loc not always correct when scrolling fast in
list (probably due to `snacks.scroll`)
- [x] `grep` (`live_grep`) is sometimes too fast in large repos and can
impact ui rendering. Not very noticeable, but something I want to look
at.
- [x] docs
- [x] treesitter highlights are broken. Messed something up somewhere
