Description
Perform the following operations to reproduce the problem:
- Create new files main.c and com.h under the test directory structure. (test/main.c test/com.h)
- The content of the document is arbitrary, for example
1
2
3
3
4
5
- And then execute the instructions. (
git initgit add --all`git commit -m "test") - You will see that all lines in com.h display the ~ symbol
It should not display the ~ symbol.The prompt for the main.c file is normal.
I also found similar problems in my other warehouses, some of the file prompt is abnorma.
The following projects reproduce this problem
test.zip

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with test/main.c and test/com.h, then run the listed git init, git add --all, and git commit commands. Start by tracing how vim-signify assigns signs to these files and compare the behavior for main.c and com.h. Done means com.h no longer shows persistent ~ signs while the normal prompt for main.c remains unchanged.
