What is the severity of this bug?

minor (annoyance)

Steps To Reproduce

here's how it happens for me:
suppose im in directory ~/projects/x.

  1. i make a file test.java. i open it and write some code.
  2. i create a new tab in my (kitty) terminal and run javac test.java which gives error file should be named Example or something like that.
  3. i switch back to this tab with neovim, open oil buffer, edit test.java to Test.java and :w.

Expected Behavior

No error

Directory structure

No response

Repro

-- save as repro.lua
-- run with nvim -u repro.lua
-- DO NOT change the paths
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "runtime", "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",
    "--single-branch",
    "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
    lazypath,
  })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  {
        "stevearc/oil.nvim",
        config = function()
            require("oil").setup({
              -- add any needed settings here
            })
        end,
  },
  -- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

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

Did you check the bug with a clean config?

  • I have confirmed that the bug reproduces with nvim -u repro.lua using the repro.lua file above.
