[baturevychvitalii]

Self-Diagnosis

• [x] I have searched the issues for an answer to my question.
• [x] I have reviewed the NERDTree documentation(README.md).

Environment (for bug reports)

• [x] Operating System: Linux 5.8.4-arch1-1
• [x] Vim/Neovim version :echo v:version: 8.2 (2019 Dec 12, compiled Aug 30 2020 08:25:15)
• [x] NERDTree version, found on 1st line in NERDTree quickhelp ?: 6.9.9

• [x] vimrc settings

  " all settings about nerdtree and other plugins
      map <c-e> :NERDTreeToggle<CR>
  
      " NERD tree icons and font
      set encoding=utf8
  
      " Use NERD fonts with NERDTree git
      let g:NERDTreeGitStatusUseNerdFonts = 1

  • Other NERDTree-dependent Plugins
    • [ ] jistr/vim-nerdtree-tabs
    • [x] ryanoasis/vim-devicons
    • [ ] tiagofumo/vim-nerdtree-syntax-highlight
    • [ ] Others (specify):
  • [ ] I've verified the issue occurs with only nerdtree-git-plugin installed.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

1. open file, tracked by git, unchanged from last commit.
2. close NERDtree
3. modify and save the file
4. toggle NERDtree

Expected Result

Yes. This is a known issue I have no idea how to fix currently.

[baturevychvitalii]

I came up with a quickfix: As mentioned in bug report, I have following line in my ~/.vimrc:

map \ :NERDTreeToggle\

to toggle nerd tree (cause i don't need to see it all the time) I changed it to

map \ :NERDTreeToggle\:NERDTreeRefreshRoot\

seems like it has fixed the issue for me, and whenever i toggle nerd tree git icons are up to date

[Xuyuanp]

Wow!

I'll come up with a final solution, just need some time.
