I ask rust-analyzer to find references on default in the code below: impl Default for Input { fn default() -> Self { Self } } I expect to find references. Instead, rust-analyzer stalls. This is because I have a .md at repo root like below: fn example() { fn example() { .... (repeat many times) default(); } } } ... (repeat many times) that is parsed as Rust. This can happen with, for example, llm sessions. Meta Perhaps something to do in FindUsages::scope_files.

In an impl block for an enum Enum, the assists offered on Enum::ident() seems to depend on the casing of ident, specifically, Enum::Foo(arg) gets "Generate variant" while Enum::foo(arg) gets "Generate foo function". However, in the same context, both Self::Foo() and Self::foo() only get "Generate ... function". It would be better if the behavior was the same between naming the type explicitly or using Self.

rust-analyzer version: 0.3.3049-standalone rustc version: 1.98.1 (48a229cea 2026-09-01) editor or extension: vscode 1.138.0 code snippet to reproduce: enum Expr { Zero, Node { u: f64, l: f64, d: u32 }, } fn main(a: Expr, b: Expr) { match (a, b) {} } rust-analyzer recommends this quick fix: match (a, b) { (Expr::Zero, Expr::Zero) => todo!(), (Expr::Zero, Expr::Node { u, l, d }) => todo!(), (Expr::Node { u, l, d }, Expr::Zero) => todo!(), (Expr::Node { u, l, d }, Expr::Node { u, l, d }) => todo!(), } Last arm contains colliding names u, l, d, so it wont compile.

rust-analyzer version: rust-analyzer version: 0.3.3049-standalone rustc version: rustc 1.98.1 (48a229cea 2026-09-01) editor or extension: VSCode, rust-analyzer 0.3.3049 relevant settings: repository link (if public, optional): code snippet to reproduce: // Run the "Wrap in Some" action on '123' let x = if { None } else { 123 }; Result: let x = if true { None } else Some({ 123 }); rust-analyzer wraps the entire block for the else branch with Some, instead of just the 123 that gets returned for the variable assignment. If I set a type on x: Option<_>, this doesn't happen.

Hi, I'm pretty new to rust - so I'm not completely sure if this is a bug or a feature request (and there is still the possibility that I'm doing something wrong). rust-analyzer 1.98.0 (88d9e12a 2026-08-18) I want to extract a struct into its own module using "Extract module", but when the struct is already imported via a use binding, the assist adds a redundant qualifier to usages of that struct instead of updating the existing import. There are two files, main.rs and my_module.rs // main.rs use crate::my_module::{First, Second}; mod my_module; fn main() { let first = First {}; let second = Second {}; } // my_module.rs pub(crate) struct First {} pub(crate) struct Second {} Running "Extract module" on struct First results in the following code: // main.rs use crate::my_module::{Second, modname::First}; // <- already imported mod my_module; fn main() { let first = modname::First {}; // <- qualifier added let second = Second {}; } and // my_module.rs mod modname { pub(
