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

why don't you use "g" ? (ah I've just read it is the same)

however I am not asked what to do both with r and g). Org rebuilts the agenda reading from disk.
Do you have some configuration for asking?

Org-mode version 7.8.11 (eed478ffa @
