Prosession always creates blank new session #94

Closed dragon-architect closed 2 years ago

dragon-architect commented 2 years ago

I'm trying to figure out how to use Prosession, and when I invoke it on a session that has not yet been saved, it always wipes that session completely clean on me and creates a new blank session.

Current invocation attempts have included: :Prosession . (I've since learned in skimming the closed issues that this is improper and not supported) :execute "Prosession " . getcwd() (an attempt at not needing to remember the full directory path to my current working directory; seriously why can't Prosession just automatically get the current working directory if fed no input?) :Prosession /home/directory/rest/of/path/ (explicit path name this time, without relying on output from a builtin function)

In all three cases, the current session, which did not have a saved session, I should reiterate, because I'm trying to invoke Prosession to save and start tracking it, gets wiped clean and replaced with a blank, unnamed buffer.

Subsequently quitting and reopening vim results in, again, blank, unnamed buffer, and I have to manually reconstruct the session that I was attempting to begin tracking in the first place.

Current versions of vim that I use include:

calyodelphi@dragonpad:~/.vim$ vim --version
VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Feb 01 2022 09:16:32)

@dragon-architect This is a bug, thanks for reporting.

@dragon-architect I have pushed a fix for this, also :Prosession can be invoked without any arguments to use the current working directory. Appears to be working well, if there are any issues do let me know. Thanks.

There is definitely a new issue now after running git pull to update the plugin, but it's a different issue entirely that needs a separate ticket to be opened! 😄
