Hi team!

I'm currently having an issue when nvim tree doesn't show any target folder:

So this is the result of ls:
image

And this is nvim tree:
image

Neovim version

NVIM v0.8.3
Build type: RelWithDebInfo
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3

Operating system and version

Windows 10 wsl2

nvim-tree version

59e65d8

Minimal config

You can use the base config:

vim.cmd [[set runtimepath=$VIMRUNTIME]]
vim.cmd [[set packpath=/tmp/nvt-min/site]]
local package_root = "/tmp/nvt-min/site/pack"
local install_path = package_root .. "/packer/start/packer.nvim"
local function load_plugins()
  require("packer").startup {
    {
      "wbthomason/packer.nvim",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons",
      -- ADD PLUGINS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
    },
    config = {
      package_root = package_root,
      compile_path = install_path .. "/plugin/packer_compiled.lua",
      display = { non_interactive = true },
    },
  }
end
if vim.fn.isdirectory(install_path) == 0 then
  print "Installing nvim-tree and dependencies."
  vim.fn.system { "git", "clone", "--depth=1", "https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim", install_path }
end
load_plugins()
require("packer").sync()
vim.cmd [[autocmd User PackerComplete ++once echo "Ready!" | lua setup()]]
vim.opt.termguicolors = true
vim.opt.cursorline = true

-- MODIFY NVIM-TREE SETTINGS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
_G.setup = function()
  require("nvim-tree").setup {}
end

Steps to reproduce

  1. Ensure cargo is installed
  2. cargo new testPathNvimTree
    This will create a blank testPathNvimTree folder with related files
  3. cd testPathNvimTree
  4. cargo doc --open
    If it opens the file in your browser just close it. We don't need it
  5. back to testPathNvimTree, do ls, you will see the target folder and its content there.
  6. nvim -nu /tmp/nvt-min.lua .
  7. :NvimTreeToggle
  8. You'll see that the folder is not there

Expected behavior

NvimTree to show target folder

Actual behavior

Can't see the folder
