If a tree-sitter grammar outputs multiple nodes with the same range that contain each other (I noticed this with the LaTex grammar and the
text
andword
nodes), theexpand_selection
command currently "gets stuck" at them. This happens because thedescendant_for_byte_range
function always returns the lowest of these nodes, so changing the selection to the range of its parent doesn't do anything.I changed it, so that now it skips nodes with identical ranges.
