Hi,
this is a patch for my problem in #229
Turns out that it isn't a tramp problem. It's a
ls --dired
problem.Example listing:
vs
If
--dired
is one of the listing switches, the listing will be indented by two whitespaces,insert-directory
will clean up the DIRED lines but not the indentation, and thendired-subtree--readin
prepends two additional whitespaces. Due to these additional whitespaces, the directories in the subdirectory will not be identified as such and further levels of subdirectories will not work. This is patched here: if two whitespaces are detected in the beginning of the listing, no further whitespaces will be added.NB: Since tramp for example will use
--dired
if it is available, a check if--dired
is indired-listing-switches
wouldn't suffice, so we simply check for two whitespaces at the beginning of the listing to decide if we still have to prepend.
