Description

We should have settings like:

{
    // used by language servers
    "hatch.env.default": "default",  // hatch’s `default` env
    // used to map files and subdirectories to envs
    "hatch.env.override": {
        "tests/": "hatch-test.3.13",  // hatch’s default env, e.g. `hatch-test.py3.13` 
        "docs/": "docs",  // custom env for running sphinx
        "*.ipynb": "data-science",  // custom env for running notebooks, with `ipykernel`
    }, 
}

the defaults would probably be

{
    "hatch.env.default": "default",
    "hatch.env.override": {
        "tests/": "hatch-test.*",
    }, 
}

if we want to make globbing envs a thing, but that’s probably hard to determine: would it be the same that hatch test uses?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the VS Code settings integration for Hatch and compare it with the proposed default and per-directory environment settings; done requires an agreed mapping model and defined globbing behavior.
