history_labels.lua

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This script can automatically switch to different history files based on the
-- current directory.  For example, you can configure it to use one history file
-- when in one git repo, another history file in another git repo, and yet
-- another history file in some other directory.

-- Set this in a Lua script to contain a list of pairs of directories and
-- history label qualifiers.  When the current directory is within a listed
-- directory, then the script sets CLINK_HISTORY_LABEL to the associated history
-- label string.  When the current directory is not within any listed directory,
-- then the script clears the CLINK_HISTORY_LABEL environment variable (but only
-- if the script has previously set it).

-- luacheck: globals history_label_dirs
history_label_dirs = history_label_dirs or {}

-- Example:
--      history_label_dirs = {
--          { "c:/repos/clink", "Clink Repo" },
--          { "c:/repos/workcode", "Work Repo" },
--      }
