Window name shows the current directory path. If we rename the window name, then whenever we change a path in that window, the name always reverts back to the current directory path.
I tried updating set-window-option -g automatic-rename on to set-window-option -g automatic-rename off in /usr/share/byobu/profile/tmux with no effect.
It looks like the config set-window-option -g automatic-rename off
doesn't work. When I added the following configuration:
set-option -g allow-rename off
in /usr/share/byobu/profiles/tmux, automatic renaming was turned off.
