To get around this, I decided to just manually omit files each time I enter a dired buffer. I hit M-o to omit, and it omits, then a few seconds later it reverts to the full listing. Am I missing something from my config? Or is this a known issue with the version included in cvs emacs? If you update your CVS and do _not_ set `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' non-nil (it is nil by default), the problem should be gone now. I committed a patch late in the evening of Feb 16, probably not very long after you downloaded your CVS version. I have a patch that will fix the problem even if `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' _is_ non-nil, but I am waiting for an OK to commit that second patch, which seemed less urgent than the first, because `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' is a brand new option (since Feb 16) and is nil by default. Sincerely, Luc.
