I have written a small function in Emacs that does a
git stash
git stash apply
in the Git repository of the file I visit, and I have added this function
in after-save-hook
so it runs every time I save the file. The problem is
that when I save the file, the git commands above run and change the timestamp,
so Emacs thinks that the file has been modified outside Emacs itself. Naturally, when I try to edit the
file again (without closing and re-opening) Emacs asks if I want to really edit the buffer which is quite annoying.
Any ideas on how to make Emacs not think that the file has been changed as a result of the above git commands?
EDIT: Thanks jvasak. Adding (revert-buffer nil t t)
at the end of my function
did the trick.
