There was a lot of argument around adding "reload all" without a prompt on every buffer, not just unsaved changed buffers, because a buffer that was saved then the file changes (such as a git checkout) has no way for Geany to determine that previously saved changes are going to be lost.

Unfortunately "reload all" can cause people to lose changes, but in the end there are valid and reasonably common use-cases that it supports and users just need to be careful, "save all" or check for changed buffers before reloading all, after all they are telling Geany to replace all the buffer contents and it does what its told (mostly :-).

It sounds like you might be better off disabling edit history on reload so you get prompts if your usage causes you to "reload all" with changed buffers much.
