See the README for examples. • `consult-xref': Bug fix: Do not error when project root directory is nil. • `consult-fd': Bug fix: Avoid confusion of input pattern with options by prefixing the input pattern with `--and'. • `consult--buffer-sort-visibility': Bug fix: Only add current buffer to sorted list, if already present in the original list. 3 Version 1.6 (2024-05-15) ══════════════════════════ • `consult-xref': Compatibility with xref.el in Emacs 30. • `consult-grep' (and similar): Preserve files which are already open literally and do not reopen them in normal mode. • `consult-preview-allowed-hooks': Run delayed mode hooks listed in this variable during preview. • `consult--buffer-query': Add buffer-list keyword argument. 4 Version 1.5 (2024-04-19) ══════════════════════════ • Bugfix `consult-buffer': Handle buffer renaming during minibuffer completion gracefully, by attaching the actual buffer objects to the completion candidate strings. • Bugfix `consult-register': Ignore marker registers pointing to dead buffers. 5 Version 1.4 (2024-03-08) ══════════════════════════ • Bugfix: File preview: Ensure that binary files are not previewed partially.
