Adding a .projectile file causes "projectile-invalidate-cache: Wrong type argument: hash-table-p, nil"

[jwr]

Expected behavior

Adding a .projectile file to the root of a project should not stop projectile-find-file from working.

Actual behavior

Adding a .projectile file (either empty or containing excluded directories) to the root of a project causes projectile-find-file to fail with "Wrong type argument: hash-table-p, nil"

run projectile-find-file

I'm also hitting this issue. Do you have any workaround so far @jwr ?

[jwr]

Unfortunately, no. I learned to live with it and the pain of projectile-find-file listing a ton of irrelevant stuff.
