Why the working directory is not set correctly?

[kamelzcs]

After using teamocil tc, the working directory changed to /home/kamel/.oh-my-zsh/plugin/tmux, not the intended /home/kamel/Code/study

.tmux.config file

If you run these commands in tmux, what does it do:

$ tmux new-window -n 'TC' -c '/home/kamel/Code/study'
# And then in the newly created window:
$ tmux split-window -c '/home/kamel/Code/study'

It’s supposed to open a new window with two horizontal splits, each of them opened at /home/kamel/Code/study.

Finally, I found the problem, it is due to the conflict with oh-my-zsh plugin tmux After I disabled the plugin, it will not jump to /home/kamel/.oh-my-zsh/plugin/tmux directory, but the directory will not change, it will remain as it was.

# start directory is '/home/kamel/dotConf'
$ tmux
$ tmux new-window -n 'TC' -c '/home/kamel/Code/study'
$ tmux split-window -c '/home/kamel/Code/study'

Alright, I’m going to close the issue then as teamocil just execute tmux commands. Thanks!
