g:netrw_altfile = 1 doesn't work as expected for files in subdirectories
Hi, first thanks for the great plugin. It's a real game changer for my workflows and has worked well for years.
I've recently found that let g:netrw_altfile = 1
doesn't work as expected with vim-vinegar
. However it does work for :Explore
! Let me give some scenarios to explain.
Assume I am in a directory with a subdirectory subdir
containing file1
, and file2
. let g:netrw_altfile = 1
is set.
Scenario 1 (:Explore
works as expected):
-
nvim subdir/file1
to openfile1
. -
:Explore
to opennetrw
. - Select
file2
and hit enter to open it. -
Ctrl-6
takes me back tofile1
.
Scenario 2 (vim-vinegar
doesn't work as expected):
-
nvim subdir/file1
to openfile1
. -
-
in normal mode to opennetrw
via vim-vinegar. - Select
file2
and hit enter to open it. -
Ctrl-6
takes me back tonetrw
.
I would expect that with g:netrw_altfile = 1
set, step 4 in Scenario 2 should take me back to file1
.
Interestingly, if I am running nvim
from the subdirectory containing the files then vim-vinegar
works the same way as :Explore
(i.e. as I would expect).
I'm using Neovim v0.10.0, and vim-vinegar bb1bcddf43cfebe05eb565a84ab069b357d0b3d6.
