29.0.60; Infinite loop when there are cyclic path in the parse tree |
Date: |

This is not really an Emacs bug, but either tree-siter-c or
tree-sitter’s. I’m putting it out here so that if I’m hit by a bus
tomorrow, and treesit-search-forward-goto and friends hang,
we (eh, you) know what’s going on.
I’ve submitted an issue here:
https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-c/issues/119
So far, I’ve only observed this in that specific edge case.

Ah right, it evaded my mind, sorry about that.

Cool. I’m closing this.
