Option to open root of project in buffer (Telescope)

[sthendev]

I would prefer if when I press enter on one of my projects in telescope, it doesn't open the file finder for that project but instead just changes my directory and opens the root directory in a buffer. Equivalent to if I had just done cd /path/to/project && nvim . Would this be possible?

Maybe option to bind this kind of behavior to a keymap?

This already exists! C-w in insert mode or w in normal mode during the telescope picker will do exactly what you want.

See other mappings.

Hey @elken thank you! I was already aware of that keymap however, I use startify and I think that prevents it to open it like a dir with . operation. So what i see is changing directory without opening the file tree. Which is alright because i still can toggle the file tree myself. So no complaint there.

I was just asking if there is anything you can do about it to make it play nicely with other things such as greeter plugins. If not, all is well i still love the plugin. Keep up the great work.

C-w was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! Is it possible to remap it to <CR> at the moment?.

I had a crack at making the select behavior configurable: #41 Keen for any feedback 😄

See how it's done and feel free to make your own picker with bindings! :)
