The whole application freezes the first time `x-network-view:///` is visited during a session (or after `killall gvfsd-network`). This happens because GDaemonFile makes sync DBus calls to mount the `network:///` location when we call `g_file_monitor_directory()`[0], which is done by the view when the ready callback is invoked. In order to avoid this, ensure the `network:///` location is mounted before invoking the ready callback for the `x-network-view:///` file. (This achieves a result which is similar to accessing `network:///` directly, or any other location which is slow to mount: the location is not changed until after the mount succeeds. I don't think this is good UX, but it's an entirely different problem which is not specific to the Network view at all.) [0] More context on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/455 |

nautilus
This is the project of the Files app, a file browser for
GNOME, internally known by its historical name nautilus.
Supported version
Only the latest version of Files as provided upstream is supported. Try out the Flatpak nightly installation before filling issues to ensure the installation is reproducible and doesn't have downstream changes on it. In case you cannot reproduce in the nightly installation, don't hesitate to file an issue in your distribution. This is to ensure the issue is well triaged and reaches the proper people.
Contributing to nautilus
To build the development version of the Files app and hack on the code see the welcome guide.
Commit messages should follow the expected format detailed here.
Update default branch
The default development branch of nautilus has been renamed to main. To
update your local checkout, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
Runtime dependencies
- Bubblewrap installed. Used for security reasons.
- Tracker (including tracker-miners) properly set up and with all features enabled. Used for fast search and metadata extraction, starred files and batch renaming.
Discourse
For more informal discussion we use GNOME Discourse in the Applications category with the nautilus tag. Feel free to open a topic there.
