file editor should warn if file changes on disk

[cancan101]

I have a file editor open for a certain file. That file changes on disk. There should be a warning of some sort in the web editor that this has happened to prevent saving over the modified data.

We already have exactly this check for notebooks, so doing the same for edit should be doable.

Hi @minrk, I'd like to take on this issue. I'm a first time contributor here, so any pointers to relevant architecture for this issue would be great!

Hi @unnamedplay-r! The first step would be to look at how the notebook implements the check_last_modified logic. Then the task would be to copy the relevant bits of that (or refactor it a bit to make it re-usable) to where edit implements save.

Thanks for the help here @minrk. I'll give it a whirl this weekend. Should pull requests be submitted as WIP's, or submit upon completion? I can't seem to find any documentation on pull requests.

Submitting a WIP is fine, just let us know in the description.
