Reverse search from Skim opens a new tab

[stehbar]

Description
When using VimR + VimTeX + Skim on macOS, inverse (reverse) search from Skim consistently opens the target .tex file in a new tab.

Expected behavior

• bring VimR to the foreground
• jump to the correct line
• reuse the existing buffer

It used to work this way until recently

Actual behavior

• VimR is activated
• cursor jumps to the correct line
• a new tab is opened every time and the user is landed at the beginning of the file in the newly opened tab

Environment

• macOS 26.2
• VimR: 0.60.0
• Neovim: v0.11.6
  VimTeX: latest

Notes

• Issue persists with clean installs
• Appears to be related to how VimR handles file-opening during inverse search
