:PossessionSave only saves session after root directory

[zeitchef]

Perhaps I'm not understanding exactly, but I would expect :PossessionSave to save a session with the name of the current directory, not the root directory.

Currently, this is the only session file it will create.

When I dismiss the message, I get the following error:

Edit: After actually looking at the commands, I realize this requires an argument. However, when saving the session, all open buffers are closed. Very weird.

I was hoping this would be essentially a drop-in replacement for auto-sessions which basically just manages the sessions for me. I don't want to have to type commands or use Telescope to load a session every time. If in the future, Possession will just work out of the box like auto-session I'll be happy to have another look!

Well, the interface in auto-session is a bit different from what I can see. With auto-session your session name is the current directory name. In possession when you invoke PossessionSave {name} you would use a descriptive name for this project (PossessionSave my-project) and the file is stored under session_dir (can be changed in setup). CWD will be stored in the file contents (not in file name).

Anyway, currently there is no feature for automatic session save/restore. I might add it in near future, as it seems like a nice feature to have, though I generally prefer explicitly specifying which session I want to load.

I opened #3 and will close this issue.
