findfile(‘filename’, ‘**’) does not work in iCloud directories

[bwhelm]

:cd to an iCloud directory linked via :iexdir. In that directory, let a be a subdirectory, and a/b a file. Now, echo findfile(‘b’, ‘**’) returns nothing, when it should return a/b.

This is not true with directories not in iCloud.

I wonder if this is related to a problem I have. If I use netrw to navigate to a file in an external directory, when I then close that file and do :e . the file tree does not display. Only the banner at the top.

The only way I’m able to get back to the file tree is to quit iVim and then navigate back to the directory.
