There was a problem hiding this comment.
I’m going to make some changes to make them more consistent with our existing docs, but otherwise this looks good!

Related issue #48600, following #48904 Setting `"formatter": null` does not actually disable the formatter, as it is functionally equivalent to leaving the setting undefined. In this case, Zed falls back to the default behavior—either "auto" or a specific language server, depending on the language. This PR adds a "none" option to the formatter setting, allowing users to explicitly disable formatting while keeping `code_actions_on_format` enabled separately. ```json "formatter": "none" ``` I still have some doubts about the necessity of this setting itself, but if it is a desired addition, I will update the documentation accordingly. If not, please feel free to close this PR. - [x] Tests or screenshots needed? - [x] Code Reviewed - [x] Manual QA Release Notes: - Added `"formatter": "none"` in settings to explicitly disable the formatter.

I have added the
code_actions_on_formatsetting. I also temporarily removed the mention of"formatter": null. Based on our findings in #48600, its current behavior is inconsistent, so I've omitted it for now to avoid confusing users. I will add it back once the underlying issue is fixed (likely in a subsequent PR).Closes #48600.
