#Vim (and #Neovim) will trigger au FileType netrw autocommands, as well as commands in after/ftplugin/netrw.vim when

• selecting a directory in a #Netrw buffer
• selecting a file in a Netrw buffer (i.e. when leaving Netrw)

but not when first entering Netrw, e.g. by calling :Explore

Even though :set ft? will display 'netrw' no problem.

What the fuck?! I'm at a loss here, any hints greatly appreciated. :BoostOK:

Reproduce by doing

• nvim --clean
• :au FileType netrw echo 'netrw'
• :e .
