Perfect, thanks. Here's what I get:
--- Auto-Commands ---
fedora BufReadPre
/media/* set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp
Last set from /etc/vimrc
/run/media/*
set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp
Last set from /etc/vimrc
/mnt/* set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp
Last set from /etc/vimrc
...
This lead me to /etc/vimrc which has a line:
" don't write swapfile on most commonly used directories for NFS mounts or
USB sticks
autocmd BufNewFile,BufReadPre /media/*,/run/media/*,/mnt/* set
directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp
Which confuses me. The aim appears to be to NOT write swap files but all it
does is change the location of swap files. And I do want swap files for my
mounts in case of recovery.
I am tempted to remove this line though it feels a bit hacky to change this in
/etc/vimrc. I will see if I can work out how to override this autocmd in my own
profile perhaps.
