I can confirm the latest build no longer causes me that problem.
It's not vterm's fault, it's mine. I set `default-directory` like that
when spawning it, which I have just been getting away with for a long
time. It seems up until now a lot of things have been tolerant of my
invalid local path, with empty, '.' or './' seemingly being treated like
'~' before now.
So I'll be fixing my code that created a badly formed default-directory as
well.
Thank you for your efforts! I'm very glad to see Tramp is getting some
attention. I love it and rely on it but it adds a lot of latency for me
with its extensive round trips when establishing connections (I have to ssh
via an AWS jumphost).
