Can't commit in neovim

[lalitmee]

Getting this error from last update of neogit

[TimUntersberger]

Interesting. I can commit on my machine.

Are you using sessions?

The line that errored tells me that somehow the popup state disappeared. Did you reload some lua code while you had the popup open?

When I try to save the commit message I get this error: 382: Cannot write, 'buftype' option is set maybe I am doing wrong? how I can save the commit message and continue the commit process.

@carlitux it's different from fugitive you don't need to write the buffer. You should try <c-c><c-c> instead to commit

[lalitmee]

@TimUntersberger , I am using sessions from vim-startify nothing else. No I didn't reload the popup or anything. I simply press two times c and then it goes to commit screen. But that is not happening now.

[TimUntersberger]

@lalitmee sessions sometimes create problems for me when using new/updated plugins.

Could you try commiting in a new repo without using sessions?

[lalitmee]

@TimUntersberger , the whole plugin seems broken.
After the latest update now I can't expand and collapse the hunks.

[RianFuro]

@lalitmee that's probably related to #77

[lalitmee]

@RianFuro , yeah I was able to fix that by calling the setup function. But I am still not able to write commit messages.

[TimUntersberger]

Can you try commiting with only neogit installed (so basically nvim + neogit)

Edit:

I really can't reproduce this.

[RianFuro]

I played around with the sessions from vim-startify a bit, but couldn't reproduce the problem. So either it's some specific configuration or has nothing to do with it (or I just missed it, ofc).

[lalitmee]

@TimUntersberger , yup you are right. I tried this with only nvim + neogit and it worked. I really don't know what is the other thing which is affecting this. Because now I am not even calling the setup function. So simply there is no config for neogit.

Any idea what other plugin may be affecting this?

[RianFuro]

@lalitmee We don't have any other reports of incompatibilities as of yet. You could add back your used plugins one by one and see when neogit starts to break, so we at least know where we need to start looking.

[lalitmee]

@RianFuro , this was happening because I was calling the setup function of neogit. I think that was not needed for me. Simply I removed the whole file neogit.lua from my config and it worked.

Thank you so much for this awesome plugin. I think it will give a good fight to fugitive. 👍
