Hey @Sleepful :) Unfortunately this is not trivial because Livebook autosaves the notebook to the file and it assumes that whatever it has is the source of truth. Technically we could track the last file content and try to merge the changes, however that's not something we have currently planned. Note that you don't have to kill the whole Livebook to stop autosaving, you just need to close the session. But yeah, doing that often is not convenient. |

I am learning livebook and loving it.
There's just one scenario that I think it could support better.
Sometimes I want to jump into my editor to make some larger code changes, I can open the
.livemd
file easily.However if a LiveBook process is running with the
.livemd
file, it will not read the changes that I make to the file outside of LiveBook, it will always overwrite it.Is there a way around this? does it make sense to add this functionality?
Stopping the livebook process, making changes to the
.livemd
file and then opening the file with livebook works fine, but it is a lot of steps.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
