Hi,
Just wanted to let you know that since version 2.0-alpha.9567 the ‘File' ->
'Open Recent...' list has become pretty useless because it now keeps track of each
and every file you open inside a project directory, rather than just keeping only the
project directory entry in the list. Due to this older items (other projects I worked on
yesterday for example) drop off the list very fast, taking the adjective ‘Recent’ a bit
too literal… :-)
Best regards,
Bas

Are you referring to this change as the regression:
* Files opened via `mate` are now added to the recent menu by default
unless the file is a dot-file (hidden), `--wait` or `--no-recent` is
specified, or the file is in the system’s temporary folder. Also
cleaned up the command options a bit, e.g. `--async` is now `--no-wait`,
run `mate -h` for more info.

There is a special action for recent “projects” accessible as the
misnamed Open → Favorites… (⇧⌘O).

Hey, I have been wondering about that, though it doesn't really match OP's
description (keeps track of every file you open), but for me it really keep tracks of
every file you *create*. Here are some steps :
- Open one of your projects with Terminal and mate, or the Recent menu itself —
doesn't see to matter.
- Create and save a new empty file.
- A new entry for the file is added to the Recents menu, even thought it's under a
known project.
I wouldn't have expected this new file to be added under the Recent menu, since
it's already "accessible" from a project I use day-to-day, and I don't
think it falls under your changes made to mate.
Cordialement,
Etienne Samson

I introduced MATEOPT in latest nightly build and for bundle commands
that now defaults to --no-recent.

No, that is not because of a recent change but has always been that way.
If this is really a problem, then a (hidden) setting is probably better
than trying to determine when a file is saved in a location that is
easily accessible.

Thanks for this! Each time I’m amazed at your response speed and your willingness to
improve or solve things.
I haven’t seen this behaviour anymore during my regular usage of Textmate yesterday and
today, so all the files popping up in the Recent menu is probably linked to something I
did during my heavy refactoring in my project earlier this week (and yes I might have used
some bundle commands indeed for git and text diff-ing, and I did an awful lot of search
and replace also).
Best regards,
Bas

Today I was doing quite some manual search and replace again and found my ‘Open Recent’
menu filled with files from the already opened project again.
This is the way to get this to happen:
- open a project wide file window (⇧⌘F)
- search for a term that occurs in many files
- click on one of the results to go into that file
- use ⌘G to jump through the search results in that file
- at the last search result in the file, using ⌘G will open the next file containing the
next search result and jump to that rather than wrap or stop in the current file. (good!)
- from that moment on, the newly opened file is added to the ‘Open Recent’ list. IMO this
should not happen, because I have the project already open.
So after a while, all the individual files are in the Open Recent menu, pushing out the
more interesting history.
Best regards,
Bas

Thanks for the clarification, this issue is addressed in beta 3 (current
nightly build).
