Error thrown after running `hub pull-request`

This doesn’t feel like an error within projectionist, but rather a plugin that depends on it. But I couldn’t track down where it might have come from. This error was thrown after running hub pull-request using hub while doing a PR towards vim/vim.

Error detected while processing BufRead Autocommands for "*"..FileType Autocommands for "*"..function ProjectionistDetect[64]..projectionist#activate[90]..modelines:                                                                               
line    8:

Based on that this error came from opening a pull-request and editing .git/PULL_EDITMSG, which has is handled by rhubarb.vim - but that plugin does not mention projectionist nor any of its functions.

The end of the stack trace is modelines. The file being loaded has an invalid modeline.

tpope commented

Personally I switched to set modelines=0 and relying on sleuth.vim's lightweight modeline support, thus sidestepping every variant of this issue once and for all.

teoljungberg commented

I didn’t see any modeline in any of the files, which is a bit confusing. I’ll circle back if I can reproduce it at some point.

I’ll follow suit and also disabling the option too, thanks!

I 100% guarantee it's there. The fact the repo name—vim—is the start of a valid modeline, is telling.
