This behavior is analogous to `write-file'. + +** You can now use Auto Revert mode to `tail' a file. +If point is at the end of a file buffer before reverting, Auto Revert +mode keeps it at the end after reverting. Similarly if point is +displayed at the end of a file buffer in any window, it will stay at +the end of the buffer in that window. This allows to tail a file: +just put point at the end of the buffer and it will stay there. This +rule applies to file buffers. For non-file buffers, the behavior may +be mode dependent. + ** Auto Revert mode is now more careful to avoid excessive reverts and other potential problems when deciding which non-file buffers to revert. This matters especially if Global Auto Revert mode is enabled
