In Emacs 26, a file called
CHANGELOG.md
will open inchangelog-mode
instead ofmarkdown-mode
, because a regexp was added toauto-mode-alist
that matches theCHANGELOG
part of the filename. In order for the file to correctly open inmarkdown-mode
, the regexps formarkdown-mode
must be added earlier inauto-mode-alist
, hence this pull request.There should be no concern about this overriding user configuration, since it makes no sense for user configuration code to be run before the autoloads for
markdown-mode
are evaluated.This solves #331 and addresses my comment at #127 (comment).
This is a breaking change, but only barely—if someone were relying on the previous behavior, I would consider it extraordinarily bad practice.
