Falling to first folder on path, e.g: nvim project/packages/docs, shows docs first and when open a file falls to project. #3182
Description
Description
On 09/08 I opened an issue (#3180 ) about an error I was facing and it was solved simply by going back to commit "a9156c0" and the error was gone.
Today just noticed this new bug, is worth mentioning that I wasn't even using commit "a9156c0" before finding the bug from issue #3180.
Now when I do the following:
$ nvim arkos/packages/docsIt will open nvim and show nvim tree with docs files, but all of sudden when I try to open a file or folder it falls back to files from arkos folder.
I simply solved it by going back to a commit from 3 weeks ago, commit "543ed3c", and it is working fine as I used to work with it.
I saw Multi Instance refactor and I am interested into contributing but currently I am not that aligned to lua maybe by the time I finish grasping it the refactor is still up, I am currently working on nodejs framework for RESTful API built on top of express and prisma consider checking https://github.com/uanela/arkos.

}Steps to reproduce
- Simply configure your nvim with Lazy.nvim and the use the configuration above for your nvim-tree
- $ nvim some/nested/folder
Expected behavior
Should show the content of the latest file/folder on the path and keep it even though I interact with it except when I trigger to explore outer folders.
Actual behavior
Shows the content of the last file/folder on path but as soon as I interact with some file/folder on the tree it quickly shows the content of the first file/folder of the path.
