[OBO-Edit Working Group] OE commits not showing?

[Paola R. <pa...@eb...>]

Hi Nomi,

I'm using the latest download of OE 2.1. Last week I seemed to notice a 
fleeting behavior of edits not showing up after commit, but I wasn't 
sure, and at any rate I could see my commits if I clicked on a different 
term and then went back to the one I had edited. I remembered that that 
behavior had already been noticed occasionally so it wasn't a new bug.
Today, however, the behavior occurred again and this time I could not 
see my edits even if I moved to another term and then back. I tried to 
do the same edits again and still they wouldn't show up. I had no way to 
know if my changes had been recorded or not, so I went ahead and saved, 
and updated the obo file in cvs. When I did a diff, I could indeed see 
my changes. Has anyone else noticed this?

If it's any use, here's a summary of my edits:
I did all of them in a single (quick) session;
I added 2 new terms in - and these changes where recorded upon commit;
then I did some simple edits in the definition of 3 terms and added 
synonyms and a Dbxref to these same terms; after working on each term, I 
clicked Commit, and that's when I couldn't see any of my changes.
I had only had OE open for maybe an hour, and it was working fine otherwise.

Any advice what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paola
