`org-gcal-fetch` opens org files

[DaviRaubach]

Hi folks. I can't describe how to reproduce the problem. When I call org-gcal-fetch it opens all my org files.

I suspect that it needs to open and find scheduled events and then kill the buffers. Maybe my installation is failing when killing the buffers. How can I solve this.

Thank you!

This is expected behavior. org-gcal searches your agenda files (given by org-agenda-files) for existing org-gcal calendar events, as well as some extra files that you can specify. See org-generic-id-update-id-locations for the exact behavior.

If you wanted to disable searching for agenda files, you could try modifying org-generic-id-update-id-locations. I might consider a defcustom to control that as a feature request.

Thank you @telotortium! But, I don't believe that the expected behavior is to keep all org files opened after running org-gcal-fetch. Maybe I was not clear about what I think is a problem. I don't wanna have a lot of buffers opened after using org-gcal. Shouldn't it close the buffers after fetching the events?

[DaviRaubach]

Ok, maybe it is really the expected behavior.

I just found that org-agenda-exit closes everything to me. So I think it is the solution to this fake problem.
