Describe the bug

After latest Lazy vim update I get this error everytime I open vim:

Too many rounds of missing plugins

Steps To Reproduce

After removing all my plugins and adding them back one by one the issue seems to be with the rest-nvim/rest.nvim plugin that I load from a local directory. Note that loading it directly from github does not show the problem. The problem appears when I load the plugin from a local directory like below:

dir = "/home/Projects/vim/rest.nvim",
branch = "main",
dev = true,

Expected Behavior

No error is shown.

Repro

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", lazypath, })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  {
    -- "rest-nvim/rest.nvim",
    dir = "/home/Projects/vim/rest.nvim",
    branch = "main",
    dev = true,
    lazy = true,
    ft = "http",
    dependencies = { "luarocks.nvim" },
    config = function()

    -- require("telescope").load_extension('rest')

      require("rest-nvim").setup({})
    end
  }
  -- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here

Make sure your lazy.nvim version is up to date.

Lazy now supports luarocks, so please remove that luarocks.nvim dependency.
If the problem persists, run :checkhealth lazy and report back any errors you see, both in health and when loading Neovim.

• You're also mixing dev=true and setting a dir. You should only specify one of the two.
• lazy=true is not needed since you have ft=...
• instead of that config function just add opts = {}

Running :checkhealth lazy:

lazy: require("lazy.health").check()

lazy.nvim
- OK {git} version 2.39.2
- OK no existing packages found by other package managers
- OK packer_compiled.lua not found

luarocks
- checking hererocks installation
- you have some plugins that require luarocks:
    * rest.nvim
    * hererocks
- OK {python3} Python 3.11.2
- OK {/home/ryujin/.config/nvim/.repro/data/nvim/lazy-rocks/hererocks/bin/luarocks} 3.11.1
- OK {/home/ryujin/.config/nvim/.repro/data/nvim/lazy-rocks/hererocks/bin/lua} Lua 5.1.5  Copyright (C) 1994-2012 Lua.org, PUC-Rio

I removed dev=true , lazy=true, replaced the config function with opts = {}, and removed the luarocks dependency:

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", lazypath, })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  {
    -- "rest-nvim/rest.nvim",
    dir = "/home/ryujin/Projects/vim/rest.nvim",
    branch = "main",
    ft = "http",
    opts = {}
  }
  -- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here

Still running nvim -u repro.lua I get the output below. Note I am not using any other configurations or plugins, only the repro.lua configuration above:

This is my neovim:

NVIM v0.11.0-dev-275+gb0c336eaf8
Build type: RelWithDebInfo
LuaJIT 2.1.1716656478
Run "nvim -V1 -v" for more info

Replacing dir=/path/to/rest.nvim with the git reference "rest-nvim/rest.nvim" fixes the issue. Is when I load the plugin from a local cloned repo that the issue appears.

Can reproduce with:

repro.lua

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", lazypath })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

local rest_repo = "https://github.com/rest-nvim/rest.nvim.git"
local rest_path = root .. "/tmp/rest.nvim"
vim.fn.mkdir(root .. "/tmp", "p")

if not vim.loop.fs_stat(rest_path) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", rest_repo, rest_path })
end

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  {
    -- "rest-nvim/rest.nvim",
    dir = rest_path,
    branch = "main",
    ft = "http",
    opts = {},
  },
  -- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here

Will look into it!

Thanks, tested the this fixes the issue.
