Helix mangled all open buffers and saved them when trying to create a macro

[lukepighetti]

Summary

I had three buffers open, with two visible in a vertical split, in a Dart project. I tried to create a macro with Qmip C-c Q. It froze for about 15 seconds, and then mangled every open buffer and saved them to disk. It appeared to blend the output from multiple buffers. I was not able to undo these changes. Here is my log file. I would rate this a P0 or P1 bug depending on how often it happens.

Hard to describe just how mangled this is. It's like all the buffers were randomly interleaved and then dispersed across each other

Is it possible that you were previously accidentally recording the macro? None of those keypresses should trigger a save.

[lukepighetti]

Anything is possible, are we able to see this in the logs?

It's visible in the UI with a [@] indicator in the bottom right-hand corner but I don't believe we log anything for that.

Do you have any custom keymaps? And can you reproduce this behavior?

[lukepighetti]

My recollection is that I hit Q and it started recording. It was when I ended recording that it froze for many seconds before it mangled everything. But anything is possible.

I do not have a reproduction.
