How to change the color of gitmoditify files and directories

You can modify the highlight colors through Vim's highlight command. I personally use it to change the color of hidden files.

With lazy.nvim, I just put it in the init property:

{
    "nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
    ...
    init = function()
      -- change dotfiles highlight color (set it to normal)
      vim.cmd('highlight NeoTreeDotfile guifg=NeoTreeNormal');
      vim.cmd('highlight NeoTreeGitIgnored guifg=#626262');  -- used to link to NeoTreeDotfile, undo that
    end,
    ...
}

You can see a full list of highlights and more information about them in :h neo-tree-highlights (or doc/neo-tree.txt). The one that you're looking for in this case is NeoTreeGitModified.

TIP: you can use :highlight <group> to see the current value. In this case, we can see that NeoTreeGitModified links to TreeGitModified, which is set to #81a1c1 in my colorscheme:

:highlight NeoTreeGitModified
NeoTreeGitModified xxx links to TreeGitModified
:highlight TreeGitModified
TreeGitModified xxx guifg=#81a1c1

So you should directly modify TreeGitModified:

vim.cmd('highlight TreeGitModified guifg=<your color>');
