Any file/folder changes I make within Sublime Text don’t update the contents of the folder list. Newly saved files don’t appear and renamed files keep their original name.
Version 4017 is ok but from 4113 onwards (including 4126) the folder list doesn’t update.
I’m using Ubuntu 18.04 with kernel version 5.4.171. There’s no obvious cause when comparing the output of strace.
Works properly on Linux 5.16.1, Arch Linux, ST version 4126. Could be an issue in the kernel’s inotify?

This is a bug in how inotify for symlinked directories are handled from version 4113. I have a directory that appears in the folder tree more than once.
Create a directory with the following files and open the folder in Sublime Text:
mkdir src test1 test2
touch src/test.cpp
ln -s ../src test1/
ln -s ../src test2/
Rename src/test.cpp to src/test2.cpp and the filename only changes in test2/src/:
Can confirm, happens over here too.

So, how do bug reports in this forum make it to the developers that can fix this?
There are other fixes in 4126 that aren’t there in 4107 that cause me problems, so neither version is usable.
To report a bug in an official capacity, it’s best to use Help > Report a bug; that will get it onto the official tracker. Reports on the forum will tend to get lost in the traffic of other support requests.
I’ve done this but I’m still waiting on any kind of response at all.
Version 4107 is frustrating to use because it has bugs in major functionality like search and replace “in selection”.
