When we look at the quickref documentation we find:
:xit :x[it][!] [file] like ":wq" but write only when changes have
been made
If we open an existing file and we do not do any changes except for
changing the encryption key(with the ":X" command) and then use the ":x"
command to exit, the changes to the encryption key will not be applied.
Note that the ":X" is not mandatory to be used, the behavior is the same
even if we use ":set key=value". By changing the encryption key I mean all
3 scenarios(1 - file is not encrypted to file is encrypted; 2 - file is
encrypted to file is encrypted, but with a different key; 3 - file is
encrypted to file is not encrypted), since a key with an empty value means
the file is not encrypted.
Note that ":wq" does change the encryption.
Is this a bug? Is it intended? Anyways, I just wanted to leave this here
for people to know the workaround. If it's a bug, I'm willing to report one
on github.
