If you read #416071, you'll see that this is not possible, as Rust 1.87+ is required to build Zed 0.190 and newer. For a moment I was hopeful that they reverted use of the std library function that increased the minimum supported Rust version, but it appears you did not even try to to build your branch before opening the PR.

Oof, sorry, that's on me. I was wondering why stable is so behind, and thought that someone forgot to backport the commits, but that wasn't the case. I'll try to do better in the future

We were trying to get upstream to give us a bit more time with MSRV bumps, but as can be seen in #423935 they are still jumping the gun on day one. :')
