More clearly: 1. Suppose my repo has README.md in it and it says “Hello world!” 2. At my command line I can do `echo "How are you?" > ./README.md` 3. At my command line, do a `git commit -am "Update README.md" && git push origin main` 4. Let's suppose this commits ref abc123 5. Then I open v0, do a git pull. This picks up abc123 6. I ask v0 to make a change to something unrelated to README.md, like I ask it to create a new file called CHANGELOG.md. I publish (which commits and pushes) 7. My local changes to README.md are now overridden Workaround: Right after the git pull in step 5, if I do a hard refresh of my v0 webapge (SHIFT+REFRESH) then it picks up the change, and steps 6 and 7 work as expected. Jacob Paris (@jacobparis) · 2026-01-26 · ♥ 2 Are you still seeing this issue? I just tested and after committing, v0 saw the remote changes and prompted me to pull them. When I did that, it felt like an automatic full page reload (which may have been a recent fix) notably I'm not pushing to main, I'm pushing to `v0/main-b7753918` which is auto created with the github integration now  rtruxler (@rtruxler) · 2026-01-26 · ♥ 1 I reported this before the automated github PR creation -- I'll keep an eye on it. rtruxler (@rtruxler) · 2026-01-26 · ♥ 1 After adopting the new github workflow I can confirm that the accidental rollbacks do not happen anymore. Presumably this is because the act of publishing is ultimately managed through a git merge which handles external changes in a more friendly way. Great! I have thoughts though on the new git branch workflow, which tl;dr, is that it is slowing me down pretty significantly. I'm no stranger to a git workflow, but this definitely slows me down.
