BTW, one more feature in this vein (stealing this idea from Stefan)
would be if we automatically moved point to the same location in the
other file. That might be a little too magical. But it would be very
cool...
I guess the ideal thing we'd want is to move point to the same function,
which is a bit trickier... could be done with imenu perhaps. Not
sure...
We don't know how much these files could be different. One could be
empty (a newly-created one), or having totally different contents.
There is a way to detect a useful offset if the files are similar enough
(using 'diff -u''s output), I think we have that in diff-hl. But calling
'diff' when any file is visited seems like it will be minority
preference... I think.
Maybe the right call would be to have a keybinding in C-x p p like j or
something, which would just instantly jump you to the same file in the
other project. So you'd just run C-x p p j and that would open the same
file in the other project, with point inside the same function (using
imenu), at the same offset in that function.
Sure, why not. As a part of your personal (or company-wise) settings?
That could be helpful for other reasons too: I've often wanted "just put
me anywhere in this other project, I don't care where", and this could
be that command. Although I suppose mostly I want that because C-x p p
isn't currently a generic prefix for any command, and if we convert it
to be that (with next-default-directory or something), I won't need
that.
Just in case you were not aware: project-switch-commands can also be set
to a single symbol, then just that command will be invoked.
Alternatively, maybe C-x p j could be an alternative to C-x p p, and
when it prompts for a project, it could prompt only for "sibling
projects" which have the same file structure. And we could have a
built-in way to detect sibling projects: Any other worktree of the
current git repository is a sibling project. (And we would make this
extensible too of course; maybe have both project-siblings and
vc-list-worktrees as extension points)
I'm not convinced yet by the idea of 'project-siblings' generic (need
more uses/users), but the rest sounds good and very doable anyway.
