Auto Refresh not working on Jekyll projects #731

Closed troyswanson closed 9 years ago

troyswanson commented 9 years ago

Here's a video illustrating the problem: http://youtu.be/EgBzMXpO21c

Seems like CodeKit is seeing the changes in the generated site, but isn't telling the browser to refresh the page. I've tried upping the refresh delay, no luck. Could it be that CodeKit is choking on the fact that Jekyll basically deletes the entire folder and then drops in the whole new generated site (as opposed to just updating the pages that are affected)?

I just tried changing a single file in the generated site folder (which is what CodeKit is set up to watch), and it recognized the change and successfully refreshed the browser automatically.

It seems like CodeKit might be having trouble with Jekyll's behavior of removing and replacing the entire contents of the _site folder. For what it's worth, this hasn't been a problem until very recently (like, yesterday). Not sure if something on my machine has changed or if it's a CodeKit thing, at this point.

Closing since this is the wrong bloody repo!
