Warp's working directory feature is designed to enhance your workflow by enabling you to set up a default directory for new sessions. This feature helps you save time and quickly access your preferred directories when starting new sessions. You have the flexibility to set up a working directory for all new sessions or customize it individually for Windows, Tabs, and Panes, based on your specific needs.
Open Settings > Features > Session
and go to "Working directory for new sessions".
The drop-down for this feature provides several options discussed below:
Home Directory, is the default option for new sessions and opens new sessions in the currently logged-in users home folder ~/
.
Previous session's directory, opens new sessions in your active sessions' current directory.
Custom directory, opens new sessions in a file path you specify.
Advanced, allows you to select from the three options for new sessions in Windows, Tabs, and Panes.
