import issues aside, I see @nosent as @auto which keeps a copy of the external file in the Leo file, persisting gnx and ua.
The only reason I can think of to prefer @auto is if the Leo file was dealing with so many external files that size became an issue. Would @edit be the choice for managing external files while keeping the Leo file minimal? Compared to @auto, each change in an external file triggers a git diff in both the Leo file and the external file ... that's fine. On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 8:58 PM, Edward K.
