Enter your bug report in this message, including as much detail as you
possibly can about the problem, what you did to cause it and what the
local and remote machines are.
If you can give a simple set of instructions to make this bug happen
reliably, please include those. Thank you for helping kill bugs in
TRAMP.
--bug report follows this line--
1) Create file on machine1 as: "$ echo "foo" > foo"
2) Open file in emacs on machine2: C-x C-f /r:dkatz@machine1:foo
3) Change file on machine1 as: "$ echo "bar" >> foo"
(Emacs session on machine2 is still active)
4) Revisit file on machine2: C-x C-f /r:dkatz@machine1:foo
(Same session as in step 2)
With a local file, emacs would notice that the file had changed on
disk and offer to re-read it into the buffer. Files that I visit by
tramp don't notice that the file has changed and don't ask whether I
want to refresh the buffer.
Note that if I kill the buffer and then re-visit the file, I get the
new version of the file. The problem only arises if I try to revisit
a file which has already been visited.
