[PATCH] auto-revert mode doesn't work when changing buffer file name |
|

Auto-revert mode stops working effectively when the user changes the buffer
file name, by running `write-file' for example, because the notifier still
tracks the old file.
The attached patch attempts to rectify this.

I'm so sorry for having put you through all this, and I wish there were
anything I could do to make the tests more robust. Does autorevert 'feel'
reliable and responsive for remote files when you use it manually, or is there
anything that could cast the implementation in doubt?

Thank you once again; I suppose that will have to do for now.
