Description Inconexo 2007-03-13 11:56:18 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When I have a file opened, and try to revert the local content onto the editor, if the local file is now empty, revert seems to reload, but shows the old content of the file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any text file no empty.
2. Substitute that file with an empty one.
3. Choose the Revert action at File menu


Actual results:
It seems to reload, but shows old content of the file.

Expected results:
To show an empty file.

Does this happen every time?
Sure.

Nice catch! We need to clear the buffer when loading an empty doc.

This patch fixes the issue

Amazingly fast!

I think the bug was still there because it was a rare situation.

Thank you very much.
