Subject: bug#18851: 24.4; emacs cannot be started if the current directory has been removed
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2014 14:33:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h9ypiqmm.fsf@xvii.vinc17.org> (raw)
Emacs cannot be started if the current directory has been removed:
$ mkdir foo && cd foo && rmdir ../foo && emacs -Q
emacs: `get_current_dir_name' failed: No such file or directory
zsh: exit 1
