Tab: ivy-partial-or-done

[rakanalh]

Hi,

It seems to me that there was an issue introduced in recent versions of Ivy where hitting "TAB" would invoke ivy-partial-or-done which automatically and implicitly did what ivy-alt-done was doing if the candidate you hit TAB on was the only matching one.

So in case you try to find-file and type .emacs.d, given that there's no other file/dir that match these names hitting tab after typing .emacs would perform ivy-alt-done rather than requiring two tabs.

Thank you

So it was just upgradable through MELPA and i gave it a go.
Say i have a directory called
~/Code
So when i perform C-x C-f, starting ~, i type 'code' then TAB, ivy doesn't advanced into the Code directory but rather shows the minibuffer as follows:

Find file: code/[cursor here]
./
../

Although the directory isn't empty.

I experimented with this a bit and found that pressing TAB on the only candidate directory is similar to pressing / so it just takes my input as is and not considering that what i want is to navigate into selected candidate.

I only see 2017-0515.1409 in melpa, which predates the fix for this issue, so perhaps melpa just hasn't built the new one (I don't know how often it rebuilds).

I have

ivy-20170522.913

Maybe you should package-refresh-contents?

[Lenbok]

My bad - I assumed that since we were in abo-abo/swiper repo, that I should be looking at the swiper package in melpa, but ivy melpa package is where we expect to see the fix.

I have updated to ivy-20170522.913 and can confirm that the problem you describe in #1027 (comment) still exists, so it seems this is not fixed.

@rakanalh Please open a new issue with some description of the directory structure and the steps.

Works fine here, I made a video. Created the Code directory and some other directories inside. As seen on the video typing code and pressing TAB after that descends into the directory.

[abo-abo]

@drot Works fine for me too, but maybe it doesn't with some specific directory names of @rakanalh

Here's the follow up bug
