No changes made to file system, no error message given #19

Closed kropper closed 7 years ago

kropper commented 7 years ago

On macOS (Sierra), roamer installs successfully with sudo pip3 install roamer. Running roamer, $EDITOR properly opens with the list of files and hashes; after making any changes (renaming, copying, etc.) and saving/quitting, there is no error message given, but none of the edits has any effects, i.e., the file system is completely unchanged. Is there any way to debug this, e.g., by enabling a verbose output to see whether roamer detects the changes properly?

Can you give me the full printout of what $EDITOR is set to?

$echo $EDITOR
/Users/kropper/bin/homebrew-links/nvim
abaldwin88 commented 7 years ago

ah ok this is likely caused by #13.

As a temporary fix you should be able to run:

alias nvim=/Users/kropper/bin/homebrew-links/nvim
export ROAMER_EDITOR=nvim
