  • 19:25 UTC (new) (history) 2026-05-25 Ignoring pdfs when auto-reverting files . . . . mbork – I quite like the global Auto Revert mode. It is especially useful when I something else than Emacs sometimes changes my files. (I bet some readers immediately thought about the now-fashionable agentic coding, but plain old git switch is enough!) It has one drawback, however. I hardly ever use TeX nowadays, but when I do, I use pdf-tools. Auto Revert mode doesn’t play nice with pdfs open in Emacs, often trying to revert them before TeX finishes writing to them, which results in ugly flickering.
