Description Benjamin Currie 2024-01-20 02:57:18 UTC

SUMMARY
***
There is a setting in Kate "Automatically synchronize the terminal with the current document when possible" which I have unchecked. Both when opening an ordinary file and a session it seems to still change the path automatically running a cd command by itself.
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Disable the setting "Automatically synchronize the terminal with the current document when possible" under terminal settings.
2. Close Kate
3. Open a session or file with Kate
4. View the terminals current working directory

OBSERVED RESULT
The path is set to the path of the current file
EXPECTED RESULT
No automatic path change when opening a file.
For sessions it would make sense for it to be the same path as the last session.
