Whenever I try to source ~/.vimrc file when NERDTree is open, I get square brackets around the file icons like so:Is there a way to get rid of them? Is it a bug? I have already posted this question on the NERDTree github repo, but have not received any answer yet.UPDATE: I have opened an issue with the vim-devicons project about this.
sourcing .vimrc file put square brackets around file icons
vimrc;plugin nerdtree;plugin devicons
Putting this in your vimrc should fix the re-source issue: after a re-source, fix syntax matching issues (concealing brackets):if exists('g:loaded_webdevicons')    call webdevicons#refresh()endif
