Sourcing Session.vim does not appear to continue session tracking

[amadeus]

I've noticed recently that when I source a Session file, the session tracking no longer seems to work. The only workaround right now is for me to pause/resume (:Obesession, and then another :Obesession) and then everything continues as before.

Check for let g:this_obsession = ... in the session file.

[amadeus]

let g:this_obsession = v:this_session
let g:this_obsession_status = 2

Actually, here's an entire Session file, in case that helps:

let SessionLoad = 1
if &cp | set nocp | endif
let s:so_save = &so | let s:siso_save = &siso | set so=0 siso=0
let v:this_session=expand("<sfile>:p")
silent only
if expand('%') == '' && !&modified && line('$') <= 1 && getline(1) == ''
  let s:wipebuf = bufnr('%')
endif

Any thoughts on this, Sir Pope? 😬

[tpope]

Looks correct. I'm not really sure what's going on. :(

[amadeus]

I can work around it by doing:

augroup obsessionfix
  autocmd!
  autocmd SessionLoadPost * silent :Obsession|silent :Obsession
augroup END

But yeah, something is very strange. I even disabled every other plugin except Obsession, and the problem still persists.

Is there some specialized hook that's supposed to fire to the Obsession plugin to persist the session?

[tpope]

All it does is call s:persist() on BufEnter and VimLeavePre, which runs if g:this_obsession is set and g:SessionLoad is not. There's really not much that can silently go wrong.

[amadeus]

Lol I am an idiot on this. Dug into it again - and realized that I had configured my plugin manager to not source this plugin until :Obsession is executed... so of course it could never resume... lol
