Yeah, that's the problem. There are two distinct cases, one is reloading from
disk and the other one is overwriting the changes on the filesystem. Two
different questions, one needs YES, the other one needs NO for an answer. And
the dialog has different default buttons. This makes it necessary to read and
comprehend the message everytime. Both messages LOOK similar and therefore a
quick glance and the hitting <enter> does not help. It is simply annoying.

Something similar seems to happen in SourceTree. When working with the File
Status View open this refreshes constantly and resets the scroll area! Very
annoying. Might be the same underlying issues with some file system
notifications?

Tried it with both settings, checked and un-checked. Makes no difference.
Possibly something in macOS Sierra (not on HighSierra and don't plan to go
there in the near future) that makes some programs having a hick-up.
If that was the only issue with macOS...... 😇
Still having fun with WO and continuing to use it. Wish you all a lot of fun,
too.
