I added functionality so that the roll-back was ; performed by vc. This worked fine until 21.1. In 21.1 when you call this ; function with vc/CVS, it actually rolls-back to the prior version of the ; file rather than refreshing. Apparently, it ignores the file on disk. ; This change actually makes some sense, but it isn't what we want. ; Long-winded Explanation Ends (no longer interesting, will remove soon) ; whether or not a revert is needed, force load local variables ; for example, suppose that you change the local variables and then ; save the file, a revert is unneeded, but a force load is (hack-local-variables) (if (not (verify-visited-file-modtime (current-buffer))) (progn (revert-buffer t t) t) nil)) ;; (cond ((and (fboundp 'vc-backend-deduce) ;; (vc-backend-deduce (buffer-file-name))) (vc-revert-buffer)) ;; ((and (fboundp 'vc-backend) ;; (vc-backend (buffer-file-name))) (vc-revert-buffer)) ;; (t (revert-buffer t t))))) (defun ess-space-around (word &optional from verbose) "Replace-regexp .. ensuring space around all occurences of WORD, starting from FROM {defaults to (point)}."
