Currently nvim-tree doesn't highlight new, tracked files in the working copy/directory. This change assigns the `NvimTreeGitFileNewHL` highlight to the `" A"` git porcelain status marker.

Many thanks for your contribution!
I can't find any reason that this highlighting was not done.

fixes #2685
Currently nvim-tree doesn't highlight new, tracked files in the working copy/directory.
I'm not sure if this was perhaps done intentionally, but if that's the case it's not immediately obvious to me why this would be necessary.
This change assigns the
NvimTreeGitFileNewHLhighlight to the" A"git porcelain status marker.For some context, I primarily work with jujutsu which results in all new files in the working directory being tracked and obtaining the
" A"(New file in working tree) status.As a result all new files in my repo get no highlighting! This fixes that.
