Let's imagine several projects combined in one large git repository. Each of these projects has their own root folder in this repo. They are all related to each other so it makes sense to open them in 1 atom instance instead of opening several atom instances and switching between them.

AFAIK this is currently not supported by the AutoLanguageClient because the server always takes the atom root folder as projectPath that is then passed to the startServerProcess function.

There is already the determineProjectPath function on the ServerManager:

If this can be overwritten by the AutoLanguageClient in some way then I think the above mentioned problem is fixed.

What do you think? I think I can prepare a PR for this.
