let g:ag_working_path_mode = 'r' doesn't work

[codeur4]

when I set let g:ag_working_path_mode = 'r' in my .vimrc, nothing change. It search into files of the current directory instead of Project directory.
I have a .svn file in the parent project directory.
It seems to not detect .svn.
Please help

Are you sure you don't have a typo in your vimrc?

svn works fine in my case. With either my full vimrc or a minimal one.

I want to help fix it for you since I wrote that piece of code but svn is definitely supported so could you give me some more information?

I am on windows 7, 64 bit
There is my _vimrc file
This is my project structure :

I have files in my js folder in which there is the word option.
:Ag option from one file of this folder :

I have files in my views folder in which there is the word option too.
:Ag option from one file of this folder :

Hum.. I'm wondering if my .svn folder is enough higher in the hierarchy ?
What do you mean by typo?

[Numkil]

If I'm not mistaken the problem is caused by the fact that my code relies on unix type path's with a / instead of a windows type path with . I'll test this tomorrow and see if there's anything easy to be done about it.

Your folder hierarchy is fine.

Thanks

@codeur4 would you do me a favour and check out the PR referenced here? I don't have a windows pc, and I'm probably going over this a bit too quickly.

[codeur4]

No, same as before

[Numkil]

OK i will try and get a windows virtual image from work and figure out the problem. I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

[codeur4]

Ok cool, thanks

Hey Numkil, any progress? Having the same problem with the windows type path.

[Numkil]

@hunhejj actually there has been.
@tplunket has made A fix. You can check it out in pull request #112.

Would you be so kind in checking out that pull request and letting me know if it solves your issues? That way I can start pushing the maintainers to accept thePR.

[hunhejj]

oh cool, I was not aware of that.
Is there a way checking it out simply with vim-plug?

[Numkil]

I don't use vim-plug myself but I expect it should be possible by temporarily using this syntax.
Plug 'numkil/ag.nvim', { 'branch': 'fixGuessProjectRootOnWindows' }
This will checkout the specific branch I made to start my pull request from. You can see the difference in code at #112.
