1) the file was reloaded because you told it to (did you accidentally press 
reload instead of save, I have done that on occasion)
2) as the message says, the state before the reload is saved in the edit 
history, unlike most other editors that just discard everything on reload, so 
since its an unusual capability, the first time you do reload you get this 
message explaining that you can undo the reload
3) since saving the previous state could be expensive in memory if you are 
reloading often (eg a log file) you have the option to disable this feature by 
selecting the "Discard History" button
4) so you don't think that decision is final it is noted that you can change 
the decision in the preferences at any time

Any suggestions to make the message clearer are welcome.
