Hi Giovanni, Thanks for your quick response. You're right that g and r are the same thing. To reproduce what my problem, one has to change the file not inside the Emacs of org-mode, such as in a terminal (the senario is that the files are updated remotely and controlled by VC) . For example, a.org is one of the agenda files, one can do in terminal: $ echo "Additional line to test" >> a.org Then, inside the *Org Agenda* buffer, press "g" or "r" will show: a.org changed on disk; really edit the buffer? (y, n, r or C-h) Xin On Wed, Jul 25, 2012 at 10:18 AM, Giovanni Ridolfi < giovanni.ridolfi@yahoo.it> wrote: > Hi, Xin, > > Da: Xin Shi > Inviato: Mercoledì 25 Luglio 2012 10:09 > > > > In the *Org Agenda* buffer, I usually use the key "r" to refresh the > content. > > > If some of the agenda files have change from the disk, it will pop up > the question in the mini-buffer to ask what to do. > > > As I choose "r" to revert most of the time, and I have to do several > times to revert all the related agenda files. > >I'm wondering if there is a command to revert all agenda files?
