Tab order gets reset after rearranging by dragging tabs to the right #257
I've got two tabs open in MacVim. I want to rearrange their order, so I drag the first tab to be after the second one. Now, I can't click on the other tab to switch to it, like I'd expect. I can continue typing in the current window, but I can't get to that other tab with the UI.
Next, I try moving tabs with Cmd+Shift+}. The tab order gets reset to what it was before I dragged the tabs to change their order.
This only seems to be a problem when I drag a tab toward the right. If, instead of dragging the first tab to be after the second tab, I drag the second tab to be before the first one, I can use the tabs in their new order just fine. It's something about dragging one tab to be "after" another that doesn't work properly. Dragging a tab to be "before" works fine. So there's a workaround for people who have noticed this issue.

This has happened for a long time for me. I thought maybe the new Yosemite style tabs would fix it but hasn't. Though it wasn't always broken I'm sure, many months ago it was fine.
I don't know if this is related, but I use Tim Pope's Obsession. And recently MacVim is not properly saving tab info. If I move a tab using :tabm1 for example, and then exit saving session info. When I reopen the session the tabs are in the order they were in before I issued the :tabm command.
It seems release 100 disabled Yosemite style tabs? The actual tab style hasn't affected this bug though, I experienced it before the tab change, during, and still now that it has been reverted. It's a shame Apple doesn't provide access to their tabs widget as so many apps have issues recreating tabs well.

For me, MacVim will refuse to rearrange tabs using mouse only if they have unsaved changes.
