Body
I'm red green color blind person. And a file deleted status icon in the color blind theme is too inconspicuous.

I have to get really hard and look closely to it
The added file icon looks very good. I recognise it easy.

The moved file icon looks worse than added but still better than removed.
I'm not a UX designer, but personally, the most good UX for me is full painted file name (as in Jetbrains products or as in Bitbucket)

Or just change shapes for icons, for example,
deleted file
may be without square border, just-
sign.Or just remove square border from every icon. Naked marker will be more recognisable
ps Thanks for theme anyway!
