Update imported .org file upon update on file system? #1055

I have read about the remote syncing in issue #8. This is a different issue.

So, to my setup first:

  • I have syncthing syncing my org folder (a bench of org files) between my laptop, a container running on proxmox, and my android phone.
  • I use my thinkpad mostly to edit files and todos, then use my phone to track progress and do light weight updates.
  • The issue comes after I update the files on my thinkpad, get that synced to my android (I can see the file got updated on the android file system immediately), however... here comes the issue... I have to delete that certain .org file from orgzly, re-import it from the local to android filesysem (i.e. the updated one), and then see the updates in orgzly.

The improvement feature would be to: link the imported file to the filesystem, and re-read it each time we open the imported Notebook/org-file... I hope this would be doable.

An after thought that came to mind, didn't try to produce it, my guess is orgzly keeps its own copy of that file. So, in case I update a todo in orgzly, I would guess it also won't update the local folder to be synced to other hosts.
