A maximum of 15 overlay icons are displayed for files and folders under Windows. It is very likely that multiple tools such as git, Dropbox, and SVN are installed. These tools have their own overlay icons, making the total number of icons greater than 15, resulting in git The overlay icon is not displayed properly.
Solution:
Open regedit registry, Computer HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Explorer ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers
Back up this part of the registry (important!)
Remove the overlay icon you don’t want or rename the git related icon so that it is ranked in the top 15

Is it resolved? I also encountered this problem. Use svn and git together in win10 system. svn works fine but git doesn't work.
