Documentation

Maximum recursion depth when instrumenting code.

This limit is intended to stop recursion if an Edebug specification contains an infinite loop. When Edebug is instrumenting code containing very large quoted lists, it may reach this limit and give the error message "Too deep - perhaps infinite loop in spec?". Make this limit larger to countermand that, but you may also need to increase max-lisp-eval-depth.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 26.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 26.1.
