I (require 'ede) in a recentish trunk and tried (ede-project-root) only to
find out that it requires an argument, and I couldn't make out how to
pass it something like `ede-guess-current-project'`. How can I do that?
In project.el, which I just tried for the first time, `project-root'
also requires
and argument, but it was rather trivial to find that `project-current` returns
one, and it works for 90% of my projects, which are git-based.
It's enough for me to throw away my
(defun joaot/vc-get-vc-dir-or-die (&optional dont-die)
(or (locate-dominating-file default-directory ".git")
(and (not dont-die)
(error "Could not find git project dir from here (~a)"
default-directory))))
and I'm sure it'll work on many more situations. And Dmitry seems to be
working on functionality (xref) that makes my
(defun joaot/vc-rgrep (regexp) ...)
the most useful of my commands, not only obsolete, but ridiculously
limited in comparison.

I believe you and I've only very briefly skimmed it. It seems, though, to
be aimed at "creating projects". I'm interested in a tool that understands
existing projects. Or in tools that help me develop those tools.

That doesn't help EDE's case :-). But OK.
