Thanks for opening your first issue here! In case you're facing a bug, please update navi to the latest version first. Maybe the bug is already solved! :)

What's the value of fzf --version?

[denisidoro]

Could you try upgrading fzf to check it the problem is resolved?

[fruitjeus]

Hi denisidoro, for some reason, the installed fzf version was 0.20.0. I have updated fzf to version 0.24.4 (00a3610) and am happy to report navi works as expected. Thanks!

[denisidoro]

I'm glad it worked but I'm afraid many users will face this problem...

I'll leave this as open for a while to measure impact.

➡️ SOLUTION ⬅️

Upgrade fzf using your main package manager

APT thinks that the latest version of fzf is 0.20.0 and I can't update it to anything newer, could someone help me with what I'm doing wrong?

[fruitjeus]

Package in APT repository is indeed out of date. I ended up installing from source, following these steps: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#using-git

[ThatOtherAndrew]

Yep, that worked, thank you!
