Can you point to where in the docs it mentions that the window names match the current directory? |

Why is #W the current directory?

I took this from #53 (comment). But I'm not knowledgeable enough to say what it means.

Why automatic rename if #W is used? It updates automatically anyway
And please be consistent with set and set-option. They are aliases and set is used everywhere else

There are 2 sources that imply that this would be the case:
But you're right that it is not stated explicitly in your docs. So perhaps this PR is obsolete. |
I wouldn't say this PR is obsolete, I'm keen for the mechanics & configuration surrounding window names to be made clearer and more obvious. I'd recommend taking a look at the tmux man page and wiki, and potentially the tmux issue list as well. And then coming back to address the feedback on this PR |
The docs state that if the recommended default config is applied, tmux windows are automatically renamed according to the CWD. But as discussed in #53, this is currently not the case. This PR updates the recommended default config, to align it with what the docs say.
