Actual behavior

You could try increasing timeout, it might be genuine slowness of your system. Please bump :h nvim-tree.git.timeout to some higher value.

[peter-lyr]

I have tried. It's not working and it stucked for a long time.

[peter-lyr]

It is 28c3980 and later commits that make git status highlight not working.
Thx.

[2023-10-14 00:43:19] [git] git -C C:\nv\nvim-win64-092\share\nvim\runtime\pack\nvim_config
config status.showUntrackedFiles
fatal: cannot change to 'C:\nv\nvim-win64-092\share\nvim\runtime\pack\nvim_config
': Invalid argument

This looks like it might be a path escaping issue. 28c3980 did make a change to always use absolute paths, to allow for worktrees etc.

Please revert to 0074120 , repeat the test and report the logs.

You could try increasing timeout, it might be genuine slowness of your system.

That sounds likely.

How long does git --no-optional-locks status --porcelain=v1 -z --ignored=matching -u actually take?

On UNIX we'd do something like:

: ; time git --no-optional-locks status --porcelain=v1 -z --ignored=matching -u
!! doc/tagsgit --no-optional-locks status --porcelain=v1 -z --ignored=matching -u  0.00s user 0.01s system 89% cpu 0.006 total

I do not know what the windows equivalent of time is.

[peter-lyr]

I reverted to 0074120.

Issue could be related to #2467 Normalising paths may resolve this.

Which variant of windows are you using @peter-lyr ? Powershell, WLS, msys, cygwin, something else?

I'd be most grateful if you ran a feature flag audit for your windows variant, to assist us in dealing with future issues.

Please open and :source this feature flag enumerator:
has.lua.gz

[peter-lyr]

Thank you @alex-courtis.

I didn't use any CLI. I just open nvim-qt.exe.

Many thanks for the feature flags @peter-lyr , it was very enlightening: https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua/wiki/Development#os-feature-flags
