Subject: bug#69056: 30.0.50; history-add-new-input and recursive minibuffers
Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2024 16:54:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m11q9jngho.fsf@dazzs-mbp.home> (raw)
1. emacs -Q
2. (setq enable-recursive-minibuffers t)
3. M-y
4. In the minibuffer (with the prompt "Yank from kill-ring: "),
type M-x calendar RET (or any other command).
5. M-x M-p
Expected: "calendar" is inserted in the minibuffer.
Observed: error saying "Beginning of history; no preceding item".
The problem is that the minibuffer history of M-x isn't recorded when
you invoke M-x from within the minibuffer of read-from-kill-ring (M-y).
The reason is that read-from-kill-ring let binds history-add-new-input,
and that affects all recursive minibuffers as well, so no minibuffer
history is recorded until you exit the first (non-recursive) minibuffer.
AFAICT This issue affects all uses history-add-new-input, unfortunately,
not only read-from-kill-ring, since it's always used via let-bindings.
