In a shell, cd to an empty temporary directory and:

git init
echo a >x
git add x
git commit -mtest
emacs -Q x
echo b >x

In Emacs,

M-x which-function-mode
C-x v D

A GUI dialog box pops up, "File x changed on disk. Reread from disk?"
Click the No button. After about 500 ms. The dialog box pops up again.
Repeat.

To escape, click No and quickly kill the diff buffer, or click Yes.

The dialog should certainly not be shown more than once.

The problem here is that which-function-mode tries to use
diff-find-source-location (via add-log-current-defun).
diff-find-source-location is called with a noprompt because of this, but
it's really an interactive command that's been pressed into service by
which-function-mode.

And diff-find-source-location really wants to re-visit the file, which
means that you get this prompt over and over again.

I don't really know how to fix this...  it'd be nice if
diff-find-source-location could just give up instead of re-loading the
file in this situation.

Actually, that was pretty trivial.  The NOPROMPT flag is only present
when called from which-func, and we don't need to reload files just for
that, so I've now fixed this on the trunk.
