Evil keybinds undefined at startup on Emacs 29

[ReggieMarr]

I confirm that...

• I have searched the issue tracker, documentation, FAQ, Discourse, and Google, in case this issue has already been reported/resolved.

• I have read "How to Debug Issues", and will use it to provide as much information about this issue as possible.

• The issue can be reproduced on the latest available commit of Doom.

• The issue can be reproduced on a stable release of Emacs, such as 27 or 28. (Doom does not support development builds like 29+ or any version ending in .50 or .9x)

Expected behavior

Expected evil-collection related keybindings to work normally (e.g. SPC P P should do projectile project search).

NOTE this is only found in emacs29 I am just making this issue for awareness, I understand it is not officially supported

Current behavior

After performing a doom upgrade around this hash 811c18c (and on the latest)
I find that keybindings like Spc-p-p Spc-p-f Spc-w-v do not work (are undefined).

The results of doom doctor are as follows:

❯ doom doctor

    This is the bleeding edge of Emacs. Doom does not support it because
    Emacs HEAD is in an especially unstable period of its development. If
    you've found a stable commit, great! But be cautious about updating
    too eagerly!
    
    Because development builds are prone to random breakage, there will be
    a greater burden on you to investigate and deal with issues. Please
    make extra sure that your issue is reproducible in 28.1 before
    reporting them to Doom's issue tracker!
    
    If this doesn't phase you, read the "Why does Doom not support Emacs
    HEAD" QnA in Doom's FAQ. It offers some advice for debugging and
    surviving issues on the bleeding edge. Failing that, 28.1 is highly
    recommended and will always be Doom's best supported version of Emacs.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Emacs
2. Attempt Spc-p-p (or other evil collection keybinding)
3. Returns message "SPC P P is undefined"

I'm unable to access any keybindings as well.

Here is the commit where the keybindings broke: 3a0f1aa

So if you are having this issue and want to keep using the emacs 29 version you can use the parent commit 10eb5db

[Artawower]

Is there a way to synchronize the doom with a particular commit?

[fosskers]

Go into ~/.emacs.d/ and use git yourself. You can do git reset --hard <commit>.

I had the same issue. It seems nothing in the :config default module is being loaded, Rather than use an earlier version of Doom I was working around it by manually eval'ing config.el, +evil.el, +evil-bindings.el files after startup, but of course that sucks.

This issue only happens with a recent version of Emacs 29. I finally "fixed" it by reverting to Emacs master commit emacs-mirror/emacs@0a5477b4 (Jun 4). Since @hlissner himself uses Emacs 29 (if his dotfiles are to be believed, and the version he's on is emacs-mirror/emacs@baec3c49 (Jun 28), probably the best bet for all of us Emacs 29 users is to stick to that version.
