Describe the question

I installed the vcs-files.yazi plugin using the provided command and created the ~/.config/yazi/keymap.toml file with the provided contents, and the given shortcut works, however, the untracked/added/edited/removed icons don't appear next to the files.

Anything else?

No response

vcs-files.yazi only lists the changed files, doesn't provide any git status icons, for that, you'll need to use it together with the git.yazi plugin, which does exactly this

Oh, okay. Why two separate plugins for git support ?

Why two separate plugins for git support ?

`vcs-files.yazi`, like the name suggests, is not "git support" - it's supposed to support more VCS (Version Control System) in the future, but just happens only git is available at the moment
