Bug#741049: tmux: C-b C-c no longer starts new window in CWD

2014-03-23 Thread Michael Büsch
Hallo,

What about adding a default configuration to /etc/tmux.conf
that brings back the old behavior?
Or if that's not desired, please add an example configuration
to /usr/share/doc/tmux/examples/ that brings back the feature.
This would save users part of the trouble in search for a fix.

As-is, this clearly is a regression. A useful and very visible feature,
that used to work well in previous releases, suddenly disappeared.

Greetings, Michael.

It's not Debian's place to decide defaults...

There are examples of how to use the new way in the upstream changelog
already, and there are many possible configurations depending on what
the user wants exactly.

But maybe a FAQ entry would make sense.

The feature is still there and works just as well as before, it's just
no longer enabled by default. And as the person who implemented it in
the first place[1], I think the new way to do things is much better.

It's Debian's place to decide Debian-defaults, though.

An upstream changelog is not exactly the place where the _user_ would expect
information about required configuration changes on a debian package,
to restore a feature that suddenly stopped working.
From the user's point of view a feature suddenly just broke. And
to the user that looks like a bug. So there should be an easy and
quick way to get information on it, without digging through upstream changelogs.

 But maybe a FAQ entry would make sense.

Yes, please document that somewhere with example config snippets to
get the old behavior back.

 And as the person who implemented it in
 the first place[1], I think the new way to do things is much better.

Well, and as the user, who uses it in the first place, I think the
old way was just fine. ;)

Package: tmux
Version: 1.9-3

Previously Control - b , Control - C would create a new window in the current 
working directory. With the recent 
upgrade this is not working. I can still type `tmux neww` and I get a new 
window in the CWD.
