Hi Org-wizards; I am using git to to sync my org files between various hosts. The problem is that when I update the files on disk (i.e. with a git pull) then I have to manually revert each current org buffer (or, restart emacs, like that is going to happen :-) ). It would be nice if there was an analog of org-save-all-org-buffers that reverted them all for me. Am I missing an existing solution? d

6.22b has now `org-revert-all-org-buffers'. I consider this command
slightly dangerous, so you have to confirm with "yes".

Org mode is my default mode and many buffers not necessarily part of agenda
are open almost all the time. Will this command revert *all* Org buffers or
only the ones part of org-agenda-files?

I take it that it has to. So far I haven't yet run into David's situation so
I guess I am fine for the moment. But if I need to then I guess I will need
to remember to save (from agenda view, so that all Org buffers are saved)
before executing the git pull and revert command?

Yes. The right way would be
1. save all org buffer
2. pull to get the merging right
3. revert the buffers.
