Experimental Features

nvim-tree has experimental features, previews of new functionality that will become default or optional functionality.

Please try these out and reply with your experiences. If you encounter a problem, please raise a bug report and indicate the experimental feature you are using.

Background Git Refresh

2023 04 22 enabled by default

2023 05 27 option removed

Direct file writes and .git/ writes are executed asynchronously: the git process runs in the background. The tree updates on completion.
Other git actions such as first tree draw and explicit refreshes are still done in the foreground.
