1100240 - History doesn't keep revision in chronological order (Heisenbug)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Jean-Yves Perrier [:teoli]]

What did you do?
================
1. Regular edition by a contrib: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Connect

What happened?
==============
Result: an older edition appears on top of the latest edition

What should have happened?
==========================
The newest edition should be visible.

Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
It happens on rare occasion. Looks like a race condition or similar somewhere.

Wrong ordering of revisions.

I have repaired this before, and now again, by making a trivial change to the page and saving it.

In other words, the workaround for this kind of bug is to have someone else (probably not the person who discovers the bug) make a trivial change and save.

This bug is no longer a problem on the Connect page. Should we leave the bug open for the overall bug?

I think we already have the overall bug, so we can close it.
