auto-session VS mini.nvim

The plugins are: https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim and https://github.com/rmagatti/auto-session

I use auto-session for session management and session-lens telescope extension for switching the sessions. When I switch to a different session, auto-session clears all buffers from my current session, including the modified ones, without warning. I'm wondering if there are any ways to prevent losing my changes. For instance, can I save the modified buffers in the session and load them on session restore, or configure auto-session to give me a warning before switching to a new session if there are unsaved changes? Alternatively, is there a way to use Telescope to display a list of recently modified buffers, so that I can review them before switching sessions and take appropriate action?

buffers: I open and close nvim instances all day long, using https://github.com/rmagatti/auto-session (or one of the many other session management plugins), it saves my buffers on a per git branch basis, so I lose nothing. nvim opens in less than a second, so this is no burden at all.

Yes, I use rmagatti/auto-session with some gnarly hacks to save a subset of window options, a per-session colorscheme, and some other wacky stuff so it stays 99.9% the same between sessions.

The correct one is : auto-session (I edited the mistake in the message above)

auto-session ?

I'm also using auto-session and nvim-tree which can both interact with the session.

Finally, to save sessions and move through them, check: auto-session

Yes, for this purpose, I'm using rmagatti/auto-session

This is essentially a tagline of mini.move.

Just as the others suggested, oil.nvim solves this outta the box. I freaking love it (here my config in case ya need it). Apparently also mini.files handles this by default

You mean backwards seeking text objects? You can get those with mini.ai https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-ai.md

I would like to offer you to join me in saying late greetings to this autumn with a release of mini.nvim version 0.10.0. It is mostly about introducing three (quite feature full, dare I say) modules and minor updates of existing ones.

Last night I cleaned up all the dead code in my config and realised that mini.nvim has to be the single best plugin that I've used. I have a couple of other favourites but this collection has been so consistently good that I wanted to give some thanks to the juggernaut that is u/echasnovski! Thanks for all the work you plugin authors and core maintainers put in to make this editor what it is <3

For example: I spent a lot of time configuring file tree plugins to have the same sorting as VS Code, tweaking their icons, etc. But then I realized I barely used the file explorer at all, and now I'm super happy with the minimal approach of mini.files. I had similar experiences with other plugins that were just adding "fluff" instead of the functionality I was looking for.

Around two weeks ago I've announced the release of mini.files - a file explorer module of mini.nvim with column view navigation and "edit text to manipulate file system" design. This resulted into a great feedback from the community, much of which turned into new features.
