We save sort options when the state of the view.sort action changes. But this state may be changed in cases where the user hasn't changed the sort options. Such is the case when the folder is loaded and we read preferences and metadata to update the state of the sort action. As a result, visiting a folder for the first time causes the default sort setting to be saved as metadata and remembered in future visits. This makes the setting moot except for never before visited folders. This also causes us to save metadata unnecessarily. Instead, sort metadata should be saved only when the user explicitly changes the sort order form the default on each folder. To enforce this, block our handler of state changes when updating from settings and metadata. Resolves a partial regression https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2931#note_1784938 |

nautilus
This is the project of the Files app, a file browser for
GNOME, internally known by its historical name nautilus.
Supported version
Only 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.
Hacking on nautilus
To build the development version of the Files app and hack on the code see the general guide for building GNOME apps with Flatpak and GNOME Builder.
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.
Extensions
