Multiple files with same name hard to differentiate

Open joeaguy opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Our development environment must run on remote development servers. It involves many files with the same name, but different directories.

For example, a class and its unit tests will have the same name, but different directories: server/generic/Generic/Event/EventRole.pm server/generic/Generic/TestClass/Event/EventRole.pm

Atom usually does a good job to disambiguate the tab titles when both are open from a local copy. When open from a rmate, both files show a random string along with the name. I need to check the contents of the file within each tab to know which I am working with.

You could use the -m option in rmate.

rmate -m foo EventRole.pm
rmate -m bar EventRole.pm
