"This file has changed on disk" when the file hasn't changed

[KonradHoeffner]

When opening a 1.8 GB file, Bless 0.6.1 on Arch Linux constantly tells me that the file has changed when that did not happen (the file wasn't modified for more than a day).

Hmm, I am not able to reproduce this unfortunately :/

[KonradHoeffner]

Maybe it is related to the fstab parameters? Mine are:

<file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /dev/sda2
UUID=[...]	/         	ext4      	rw,noatime	0 1

# /dev/sda1
UUID=[...]      	/boot     	vfat      	rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro	0 2

It is not an urgent problem for me because I don't use Bless at the moment but maybe this will help in case others experience this problem as well.

Thanks for the info! Digging a little deeper I managed to reproduce this, but only with some files and not others, but I am not yet sure what's the differentiating factor. Need to investigate more.

Fixed pushed in master, thanks for the report!

Happy to help, thanks for implementing it!

Same problem in Ubuntu 20.10 with Bless 0.6.0

@endolith: I reported this issue for version 0.6.1, so you are using an even older one. Upgrading should resolve your issue.
