GitHub Mobile version: 1.273.0
Platform: iOS

Description

When I open a directory in a repository using the GitHub Mobile app, the files inside the directory briefly appear for a moment, but then immediately disappear.

After that, the app displays the following message:

This directory has no files.

However, the files actually exist in the repository and can be viewed normally using the GitHub website in a web browser.

The issue also occurs with files that were recently committed and successfully pushed to GitHub.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open a repository in the GitHub Mobile app.
2. Navigate to a directory that contains files.
3. Tap the directory to open it.
4. The files are briefly displayed immediately after the screen opens.
5. After a moment, the file list disappears and the app reports that the directory has no files.

Expected behavior

The files contained in the directory should remain visible and accessible.

Actual behavior

The files appear briefly and then disappear, and the directory is incorrectly displayed as empty.

Additional information

The same repository and directory display correctly on the GitHub website using a web browser.

Because the files are briefly visible before disappearing, this may be related to how the GitHub Mobile app refreshes or updates the directory contents after the initial view is displayed.
