No, you did not misunderstand, I do weird shit, all i am asking is for my editor to not try to be a smart wannabe-clippy and just do what it's supposed to do, tell me the file has changed and if i want to keep the changes or not.<br>

I'm really fine if i have to enable a non-default option for that.<br>
