nvim-tree changes getcwd()

[CoinCheung]

When I do not have nvim-tree:

$ cd /path/to/project
$ nvim ./path/to/sub/folder

The output of :echo getcwd() is /path/to/project/path/to/sub/folder.

However, when I have already had nvim-tree:
···
$ cd /path/to/project
$ nvim ./path/to/sub/folder/file.cpp
···
Then the output of ·：echo getcwd()· is /path/to/project which is expected.

Do you know how could I align the behavior to let nvim always use the directory where I run the command of nvim, no matter if I open a file or folder?

Please see wiki Open At Startup for all options and recipes available when starting nvim with nvim-tree.

Trying with clean nvim:

nvim --clean ./path/to/sub/folder
:echo getcwd()
/path/to/project

nvim --clean ./path/to/sub/folder/file.cpp
:echo getcwd()
/path/to/project

Perhaps another plugin or something in your config is changing the paths.
