Subject: bug#63829: 29.0.90; project-find-file's future history breaks with common-parent-directory
Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2023 18:32:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ierpm6ezude.fsf@janestreet.com> (raw)


1. emacs -Q
2. Open a project where project-files only returns files in a certain
subdirectory.  For example, a git repo /repo where the only file is
"dir/file.txt".
3. Open dir/file.txt
4. C-x p f   ;; project-find file
5. Observe that the prompt is "Find file in /repo/dir: " which correctly
contains the common parent directory between all the paths returned by
project-files.
6. M-n       ;; next-history-element
7. The minibuffer now contains "dir/file.txt".  RET will fail to
open the file.

Instead, the common parent directory should be stripped from the "future
history" element.

(As a separate point: I ran into this while adding a feature for
switching between projects with similar directory structures.  I want to
include the relative path in the starting project in the "future
history", so that when you have a file in projectA open, you can switch
to the same file in projectB with C-x p p f M-n RET.  For example,
switching between the same file in multiple clones of Emacs.  But sadly
the future history doesn't work properly right now even in a single
project)
