E37, E162 when starting neovim with a directory

[pmeinhardt]

Thanks for this fantastic plugin. I've been using it for ages and it's been a smooth ride. 🏄‍♂️

Strangely, for a couple of weeks now I encounter the following issue: 🚨

1. Start with nvim . (opens a netrw buffer)
2. :q to quit
3. Raises
   • E37: No write since last change and
   • E162: No write since last change for buffer "…"
4. Does not quit as I would expect

Invoking :q a second time then quits.

Observations 🔬

• This only happens with nvim ., not vim . with the same .vimrc configuration
• Removing Plug 'editorconfig/editorconfig-vim' from my .vimrc fixes this issue
• Opening a file, e.g. nvim README.md and then moving to a netrw buffer does not lead to the same issue

I haven't pin-pointed what causes this behavior specifically for neovim. 📍

I appreciate any help or pointers. 🙇

Some updates, as I had a little bit of time to look into this just now.

For further inspection, I set g:EditorConfig_verbose = 1 in my config. For both Vim and Neovim I get:

Applying EditorConfig vim_core on file "/Users/pmeinhardt/.dotfiles/"

Disabling parts of the code and checking whether the problem occurs, I was able to follow this trail:

https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-vim/blob/1d54632f7fcad38df8e428f349bc58b15af4b206/plugin/editorconfig.vim#L280

And then finally, disabling this line made the issue go away:

https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-vim/blob/1d54632f7fcad38df8e428f349bc58b15af4b206/plugin/editorconfig.vim#L439

Note: my .editorconfig specifies:

[*]
charset = utf-8
