Minimum version of neovim: 0.6.0

Author: Yazdani Kiyan <yazdani.kiyan@protonmail.com>

==============================================================================
INTRODUCTION                                         *nvim-tree-introduction*

This file explorer requires `neovim >= 0.6.0`

==============================================================================
QUICK START                                          *nvim-tree-quickstart*

open the tree with :NvimTreeToggle
>
  nnoremap <C-n> :NvimTreeToggle<CR>
  lua require 'nvim-tree'.toggle()
<

==============================================================================
COMMANDS                                             *nvim-tree-commands*

|:NvimTreeOpen|

opens the tree. Takes an optional path argument.

|:NvimTreeClose|

closes the tree

|:NvimTreeToggle|

open or close the tree. Takes an optional path argument.

|:NvimTreeFocus|

open the tree if it is closed, and then focus on the tree

|:NvimTreeRefresh|

refresh the tree

|:NvimTreeFindFile|

The command will change the cursor in the tree for the current bufname.

It will also open the leafs of the tree leading to the file in the buffer
(if you opened a file with something else than the NvimTree, like `fzf` or
`:split`)

|:NvimTreeFindFileToggle|

close the tree or change the cursor in the tree for the current bufname,
similar to combination of |:NvimTreeToggle| and |:NvimTreeFindFile|. Takes an
optional path argument.

|:NvimTreeClipboard|

Print clipboard content for both cut and copy

|:NvimTreeResize|

Resize the NvimTree window to the given size. Example: `:NvimTreeResize 50`
resizes the window to the width of 50. If the size starts with "+" or "-" it
adds or removes the given value to the current window width.
Example `:NvimTreeResize -20` removes the value 20 from the current width. And
`:NvimTreeResize +20` adds the value 20 to the current width.

|:NvimTreeCollapse|

Collapses the nvim-tree recursively.

|:NvimTreeCollapseKeepBuffers|

Collapses the nvim-tree recursively, but keep the directories open, which are
used in an open buffer.


==============================================================================
SETUP                                                *nvim-tree.setup*

To configure the tree (and make it runnable), you should call the setup
function.

Setup may only be run once; subsequent calls will result in a warning. Do not
invoke from, say, a packer config function and then call it again later.

Values may be functions. Warning: this may result in unexpected behaviour.

    - `NvimTreeLspDiagnosticsWarning`
    - `NvimTreeLspDiagnosticsInformation`
    - `NvimTreeLspDiagnosticsHint`

*nvim-tree.git*
Git integration with icons and colors.

    *nvim-tree.git.enable*
    Enable / disable the feature.
      Type: `boolean`, Default: `true`

    *nvim-tree.git.ignore*
    Ignore files based on `.gitignore`. Requires |git.enable| `= true`
    Toggle via the `toggle_git_ignored` action, default mapping `I`.
      Type: `boolean`, Default: `true`

    *nvim-tree.git.timeout*
    Kills the git process after some time if it takes too long.

  You will still need to set |renderer.icons.show.git| `= true` or
  |renderer.highlight_git| `= true` to be able to see things in the
  tree. This will be changed in the future versions.

  The configurable timeout will kill the current process and so disable the
  git integration for the project that takes too long.
  The git integration is blocking, so if your timeout is too long (like not in
  milliseconds but a few seconds), it will not render anything until the git
  process returned the data.


*nvim-tree.filesystem_watchers*
Will use file system watcher (libuv fs_poll) to watch the filesystem for
changes.
Using this will disable BufEnter / BufWritePost events in nvim-tree which
were used to update the whole tree. With this feature, the tree will be
updated only for the appropriate folder change, resulting in better
performance.
This will be experimental for a few weeks and will become the default.

    *nvim-tree.filesystem_watchers.enable*
    Enable / disable the feature.
      Type: `boolean`, Default: `false`

    *nvim-tree.filesystem_watchers.interval*
    Milliseconds between polls for each directory.
    Increase to at least 1000ms if changes are not visible. See
    https://github.com/luvit/luv/blob/master/docs.md#uvfs_poll_startfs_poll-path-interval-callback
      Type: `number`, Default: `100` (ms)

    *nvim-tree.view.adaptive_size*
    Resize the window on each draw based on the longest line.
    Only works when |nvim-tree.view.side| is `left` or `right`.
      Type: `boolean`, Default: `false`

    *nvim-tree.view.hide_root_folder*
    Hide the path of the current working directory on top of the tree.

    Only works with `side` is `left` or `right`.
      Type: `string | number`, Default: `30`

    will be the line number instead of `0`.

FEATURES                                             *nvim-tree-features*

File icons with vim-devicons.

Uses other type of icons so a good font support is recommended.
If the tree renders weird glyphs, install the correct fonts.

Syntax highlighting uses g:terminal_color_ from colorschemes, fallbacks to
ugly colors otherwise.

Git integration tells when a file is:
- ✗  unstaged or folder is dirty
- ✓  staged
- ★  new file
- ✓ ✗ partially staged
- ✓ ★ new file staged
- ✓ ★ ✗ new file staged and has unstaged modifications
- ═  merging
- ➜  renamed

Mouse support defined in |KeyBindings|

HIGHLIGHT GROUPS                                     *nvim-tree-highlight*

All the following highlight groups can be configured by hand. Aside from
`NvimTreeWindowPicker`, it is not advised to colorize the background of these
groups.

Example (in your `init.vim`):
>
    highlight NvimTreeSymlink guifg=blue gui=bold,underline
<
You should have 'termguicolors' enabled, otherwise, colors will not be
applied.

VINEGAR STYLE                                        *nvim-tree-vinegar*

|nvim_tree_vinegar|                                    *nvim_tree_vinegar*

nvim-tree can behave like vinegar. To allow this, you will need to configure
it in a specific way:

- Use `require"nvim-tree".open_replacing_current_buffer()` instead of the
default open command.
You can easily implement a toggle using this too:
>
    local function toggle_replace()
      local view = require"nvim-tree.view"
      if view.is_visible() then
        view.close()
      else
        require"nvim-tree".open_replacing_current_buffer()
      end
    end
<
- Use the `edit_in_place` action to edit files. It's bound to `<C-e>` by
default, vinegar uses `<CR>`. You can override this with:
>
    require"nvim-tree".setup {
      view = {
        mappings = {
          list = {
            { key = "<CR>", action = "edit_in_place" }
          }
        }
      }
    }
<
Going up a dir is bound to `-` by default in nvim-tree which is identical to
vinegar, no change is needed here.

You'll also need to set |nvim-tree.hijack_netrw| to `true` during setup.
A good functionnality to enable is |nvim-tree.hijack_directories|.

==============================================================================
EVENTS                                               *nvim-tree-events*

|nvim_tree_events|

nvim-tree will dispatch events whenever an action is made. These events can be
subscribed to through handler functions. This allows for even further
customization of nvim-tree.

A handler for an event is just a function which receives one argument -
the payload of the event. The payload is different for each event type. Refer
to |nvim_tree_registering_handlers| for more information.
<

|nvim_tree_registering_handlers|

Handlers are registered by calling the `on_*` functions available in the
`require('nvim-tree.events')` module. See |nvim-tree.events|.


For example, registering a handler for when a node is renamed is done like this: >

    local events = require('nvim-tree.events')

    events.on_node_renamed(function(data)
        print("Node renamed from " .. data.old_name .. " to " ..  data.new_name)
    end)
