[Github-comments] [geany/geany] An insufficient behavior when an open file was updated outside Geany (#1885)

[dyura]

oh, now I see where is the confusion. It is weird, but from the beginning
we were talking about different things. You assumed that after timestamp
change we were getting a nice info bar, and still we could be working with
the content. It would be great! Then it would be really insane even to
think about "save as" button or Ignore instead of Cancel.
However,  I was talking about locked content and confusing Cancel button.
So, most probably it  is a bug.
Just one more fact.  When the bar is on and the content is locked, I still
can use Save As from the file menu. Then obviously the bar stays the same.
But, the buffer becomes "dirty" and the content becomes editable.
