Created attachment 242856 [details] Files mentioned in this bug Running local server off Orion master @ 5c07c9f. 1. I was editing a .js source file, starting roughly from '0_initial.js'. (Note, there's a syntax error introduced already in this file on line 115, so I suspect the corruption started earlier in my editing session. But I only have data back to this point.) 2. I made some edits to the file. This included adding block comments at the top, and editing the 'grunt.registerTask' stuff around lines 109-115. 3. In the editor, the file contents looked like '2_expected.js'. This is what I expected. 4. On disk I noticed that the file had been corrupted into '3_corrupt.js'. When I reloaded the Orion editor page, I saw the corruption. The disturbing part is that it happens silently. The buffer in the text view seems fine until you reload the file. This makes me suspect diff-save may be involved. This corruption happens infrequently and it's hard to reproduce. I run into this maybe once a week.
