Neovim Version (nvim -v)

NVIM v0.9.5

Operating System / Version

macos 14.4.1

Describe the Bug

Trying to reveal a file inside hidden folders while hidden items are not shown results in neotree opening up but not moving anywhere. No note, no error message what is happening and why, nothing. I find this very confusing, and also I think that if I want to reveal a file at that point I don't really care if it's in a hidden or non-hidden folder, I want to see it. Please enable reveal regardless hidden items are shown or not.

Screenshots, Traceback

No response

Steps to Reproduce

1. don't show hidden items
2. open a file inside a hidden folder
3. :Neotree reveal (or reveal_force_cwd)
4. neotree opens but "nothing happens"

Expected Behavior

Reveal item regardless if it's in a hidden or non-hidden folder.

Your Configuration

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", lazypath, })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  -- add any other plugins here
}

local neotree_config = {
  "nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
  dependencies = { "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim", "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons", "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim" },
  cmd = { "Neotree" },
  keys = {
    { "<Leader>e", "<Cmd>Neotree<CR>" }, -- change or remove this line if relevant.
  },
  opts = {
    -- Your config here
    -- ...
  },
}

table.insert(plugins, neotree_config)
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here
