How do I prevent NERDTree from changing the CWD when I open a file

  • 0

How do I prevent NERDTree from changing the CWD when I open a file node?

I usually open a project folder with

cd apps/project
vim .

I want NERDTree’s current working directory to be fixed with (apps/project) when i open a file node.

I tried :let NERDTreeChDirMode=0, but it does not work.

    The let NERDTreeChDirMode=0 should be put in your ~/.vimrc.local for the spf13 vim plugin distribution, not executed after the fact. Also make sure that acd or autochdir is not in your ~/.vimrc.local.
