Zed needs to know the identities of the people who are collaborating on a worktree. So the first
time that I share a worktree (or try to join someone else's worktree), Zed will prompt me to
log in to `zed.dev`.
* For simplicity, I can begin sharing by clicking `File > Share` in the application menu.
* To initiate the share, Zed needs a user id and auth token that identifies me.
* Zed checks if it has stored credentials in the file `~/Library/Application\ Support/Zed/auth.toml`
If there is *no* stored credentials, then the user needs to log in. For now, we'll do this through
the `zed.dev` website, for two reasons:
* To avoid building complex login UI in Zed (for now)
* So that we can use web-based Oauth flows.

the `zed.dev` website, for two reasons:
- To avoid building complex login UI in Zed (for now)
- So that Zed users can take advantage of being logged into GitHub in their browser.
* Zed needs a way to track that the user has logged in using their web browser. To do this,
it makes an API request to the `zed.dev` server for a new "login token" (`POST zed.dev/api/login-tokens`).
* The server generates a unique 40-character `login_token` and stores it in its database.

* __Question__ - Does the sharing on/off state of each worktree persist across application restart?
When I close Zed while sharing a worktree, should I resume sharing when I reopen Zed?
Pros:
* This would remove friction from teams collaborating continuously.
Cons:
* I might have added something secret to the worktree since I last opened Zed. Could we detect
* **Pro** - This would remove friction from teams collaborating continuously.
* **Cons** - I might have added something secret to the worktree since I last opened Zed. Could we detect
changes that have occured outside of Zed, and avoid auto-sharing on startup when that has
happened?
