To be clearer, I've guarded project-try-vc with advice. Perhaps a user option to enable the guard intrinsically would be better as everyone could benefit. I have my own option variables doing this so I can enable it when wanted. Perhaps Ergus can give something similar a try and see if this solves his immediate hanging concern. Ergus, you should be able to just drop the below snippet in your init file (or eval in *scratch*) and see if it works for you. (defun my/project-try-vc-advice (orig-fun dir) (or (vc-file-getprop dir 'project-vc) (if (file-remote-p dir) nil (funcall orig-fun dir)))) (advice-add 'project-try-vc :around #'my/project-try-vc-advice)) On Wed, Oct 9, 2024 at 9:45 AM Ship Mints wrote: > I've added file-remote-p guards in a variety of places specifically to > avoid these issues. > > On Wed, Oct 9, 2024 at 9:39 AM Dmitry Gutov wrote: > >> Hi! >> >> On 09/10/2024 13:43, Ergus via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army >> knife of text editors wrote: >> > I made a profile and it looks like there is some bad interaction between >> > project-mode-line and tramp names >> > >> > I already tried: >> > >> > (connection-local-set-profile-variables 'my-profile >> '((project-mode-line . nil))) >> > (connection-local-set-profiles '(:application tramp :user "myuser") >> 'my-profile) >> > >> > But is not disabling the modeline for remote files. >> >> I wonder if we'll need to disable project-mode-line in remote files >> altogether, or if this is a problem that could be solved in Tramp (with >> extra caching?) >> >> To use connect-local value to disable, BTW, it would need to have extra >> code called from the mode line format (in bindings.el).
