Dear Maintainer,

I recently installed google-drive-ocamlfuse, to use my Google Drive space as part of my file system. It works, but in Thunar, the directory where I mounted Google Drive is shown as empty. If I open it, the lower part of the window says "0 items, Free space: 16.0 GB". But, if I "ls google-drive" from the command line, I see all my files.
I am able to copy files to the directory with Thunar, but even these files are not shown in the file listing.
If there is anything I can do to help fix this bug, please let me know.

I just ran across this issue - a seemingly empty folder in Thunar - with a
local directory. So, it is not specific to my GDrive mount. The directory
in question had square brackets in the name. Removing [ and ] characters
 from the directory name fixed the issue - all files were seen in the
folder (the filenames themselves may contain the characters).
