SE 27.0.1 hotfix 5 not updating files changed outside SE

[rowbearto]

When I change a file outside SE, such as using bash prompt to run 'git restore' command to restore an old version of file, when I go back to SE it is not picking up that I changed that file. It used to do that.

I'm using SE 27.0.1 hotfix 5 on Linux x64.

What are your auto-reload settings?  (Tools > Options... > File Options > Load > Auto Reload)

There was a bug fixed regarding auto-reload, but it involved the case where you get an auto-reload prompt and hit Escape to dismiss it.  The bug was that it would come up again, even though you had dismissed it (even though the file had not changed again on disk).  But maybe there is a special case with whatever settings you are using that causes the new logic to break. 

Also, is the file on a remote drive?

Looks like my auto reload got disabled, I don't know how. After turning it on it works now.

I am using a remote drive (NFS mounted) and it seems to work fine with it.

Thanks Dennis for the tip!
