I have a very annoying bug in my isearch behaviour; the buffer gets indented (modified) when I enter the first letter during isearch. I've checked all hooks named isearch.*hook but I can't find anything that differs from Vanilla Emacs. I think it only happens in auto-indent-mode. I need ideas on how to track down such bugs and this one in particular.

    Does it happen when you start emacs without your init file (`emacs -Q`)? – Dan Jan 30 '17 at 17:36

    What @Dan said. If the answer is no, then recursively bisect your init file to find the culprit. You can use command `comment-region` to comment (or with `C-u` uncomment) a region of text. – Drew Jan 30 '17 at 19:17
  • Nope, @Dan, it only happens together with my add-ons. – Nordlöw Jan 30 '17 at 20:26

    Then it's something in your init file, I'm afraid. Your best bet is to do as @Drew suggests: recursively bisect your init file until you isolate the code that's giving you the problem. – Dan Jan 30 '17 at 20:31
