Brett actually got back to me in April 2020, but it seems like he didn't use "Reply to all", so it never reached the bug tracker. I have included his full message below. I'll leave it to you to decide if this means the bug should be re-opened or= not. ---------- Forwarded message --------- Fr=C3=A5n: Brett Carter Date: tors 30 apr. 2020 kl 17:02 Subject: Re: bug#40802: 26.3; back-directory-alist ignored To: Stefan Kangas Nope, sorry - I just mis-typed it in this email subject. My literal config = is: (setq backup-directory-alist `((".*" . ,temporary-file-directory))) (setq auto-save-file-name-transforms `((".*" ,temporary-file-directory t))) I ran emacs with --no-init-file then set this config manually using eval-expression. I still observe autobackup files in my current directory. I also observed that temporary-file-directory exists and emacs is writing other types of files there. -Brett On Sat, Apr 25, 2020 at 9:43 AM Stefan Kangas wrote: > > Eli Zaretskii writes: > > > > As of Emacs 26.3 on OSX is appears back-directory-alist is > > Is it possible this is because you misspelled backup-directory-alist? > > > > ignored.
