isRegistered always returns false

[eelishiram]

Hi. I am using get_it version 5.0.1 and I have a snippet like this

final locator = GetIt.instance;

check() {
  Test a = Test();
  locator.registerFactory<Test>(() => a);
  Test b  = locator.get<Test>();
  print(identical(a, b)); // true
  print(locator.isRegistered<Test>(instance: b)); // false
}

As you can see, the identical returns true for instances a and b. However, when I try to check whether the instance b is registered, it returns false. If I modify the last print statement as below

print(locator.isRegistered<Test>()); // true

then it does return true. But since I want to check if exact instance is registered or not, this does not suit my needs at all. Is there something that I am missing regarding to the usecase of instance field?

don't pass the instance that does only work for singletons, not for factories
