I constantly get next issue: "Hide VCS Ignored Files" option becomes turned off. I am pretty sure I have do not turn it off by myself. however it still happens somehow. for now I do not have any guess what can trigger this behaviour.. :(

Expected behavior: options remains turned on
Actual behavior: options becomes turned off
Reproduces how often: it repeats smth like ~every 2 weeks.

Thanks for the report! I was unable to reproduce, this is what I tried:

  1. Install Atom 1.25.0
  2. Check Settings > Packages > tree-view > Hide VCS Ignored Files
  3. Run Application: About and install the update.

Expected and actual behavior is that after Atom updates to 1.25.1, Settings > Packages > tree-view > Hide VCS Ignored Files is still checked.

Can you reproduce if you try these steps?

Hi @rsese!

do you assume that checkbox becomes unchecked during upgrade? I do not have any observations on that but my guess is that it is not related

I am sorry I am quite busy now and I can't walk through steps you provided. I will try to track that with next major update after I come from vacation

thanks for your answer

Oh sorry, I read the other issue you linked to and must have had that in my head.

I too am getting this issue, have had the 'Ignore VCS' enabling itself multiple times over the last couple of months.

@rsese I have passed update procedure and did not faced this issue. however I would not consider it as passed away/fixed. lets keep this opened for some time

Happened again for me just now

This is most likely due to accidentally pressing i while the Tree View is focused, which toggles the Ignore VCS Files option.

If you are positive that that is not what is happening, please let us know!

It still happens to me every single time I restart Atom.
I have run a few tests to confirm and I have the Packages / Tree View page in focus when I close Atom and when I start it again the settings are still the way I've left them. Then without any interaction from my side, something runs in the background, the checkbox gets ticked after a few seconds and the hidden files automatically disappear.

Could this be related to this topic?

@tvlp please open a new issue and we'll investigate; thanks!
