Hey there,

I have a question on how you guys work with git. I'm using Sourcetree (and sometimes Tower) to keep track of the repositories, and I noticed that BBEdit v12.5 does not automatically reload changed files in open tabs (I somehow think that was different in v10 & 11, wasn't it?).

I can of course choose "Reload from disk" from the menu, when I know which files exactly have changed.
Any way to automize that? An info window in the sidebar on what git is up to would be cool ... (I think phpstorm has got sth. like that.)

Cheers!

Hi Martin,

I only use Git via Terminal, but have noticed in the past that sometimes files do not reload. Your best bet probably is sup...@barebones.com ;) 

Cheers,
Holger

I also use BBEdit and SourceTree, I usually have no issues with open documents reloading when I perform git actions in SourceTree.
Ensure that in BBEdit Preferences -> Application -> "Automatically refresh documents as they change on disk" is checked.

It might help to update to at least BBEdit 12.5.2 which fixes an issue where BBEdit would not properly work with git directories, however, that is likely an unrelated problem.

Actually, the preference you mentioned was unchecked in my version ;-(

Let's hope that setting caused the problem ...

Thanks!
