Just pushed a potential fix. Could you let me know if that works?

Hello! Thanks for the attention to my issue, It's now working fine!
I have only problem with dir and save_dir options with Telescope persisted specifically, I decided to post it in another issue as thought it would be more appropriate: #13 (comment)
Mentioning it here just in case.

From #13

However, it seems like Telescope persisted still takes only dir into consideration as it loads only sessions saved while dir option is set.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Remove dir option,
2. set save_dir instead,
3. restart nvim to apply settings,
4. spam some files and save session,
5. restart vim
6. open Telescope persisted and your newly created session won't be displayed.

@DeadlySquad13 I'm reluctant to fix this given we state in the config that users should use the save_dir config option. I allowed for dir as I changed the API and didn't want users config to break. But I don't want to add functionality to anticipate users switching between the old and new API.

I understand your decision. Unfortunately, the problem is that Telescope persisted in my case works only with dir but not with save_dir. I added step "remove dir option" only to make sure that only save_dir is used, I wasn't insisting that users should jump from old to new api and back.

@DeadlySquad13 - Have you pulled the latest version of the plugin?

There is nowhere in the code which references soley the dir option. For example, here, we attempt to use the dir option and if it's not present we use the save_dir one (which is technically always present as it's in the default config).

My only thought is that perhaps the session isn't saved at all. once you've carried out your "steps to reproduce", above. The Telescope extension relies on the plugin to do all of the heavy lifting like list sessions, source them etc.
