Did 3120 Break Goto Anything?

#1

First, this isn’t a newbie question. Although my ability to be cripplingly stupid at times could be the issue.

I am stymied by why something simple is just not working right now: any project path in my home directory is failing Goto Anything–or any other form of indexing.

Here, I’ve created a my_temp_dir and placed a single file in it: afile. The sublime-project file is as simple as can be. But as you can see, ‘afile’ is not listed in Goto Anything.

Naturally, this started failing with a more complex project. And yes, it fails if I change ‘~’ to the full hierarchical path. However, indexing works if I move this project to a different directory, such as /tmp.

Any ideas?

maybe check your "binary_file_patterns" preference in your user settings?

Goto Anything is working for me in 3120 in Windows 7.

That was it! You’re a genius!

Somehow, the following ended up in my binary_file_patterns:
"/Users/bhunter/**".

I’m sure that I never typed ** for anything. I wonder how that got there?
