Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:87.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/87.0

Steps to reproduce:

Update CSS manually
Save CSS file to server
Press Command-Shift-R or Shift-Refresh to purge cached CSS
Inspect element on page in DevTools

Actual results:

Page displays either without change showing or it displays correctly (showing the change) but with previous version of CSS rule in Inspector (e.g. padding-left of 40px onscreen with padding-left of 60px showing in Inspector).

Expected results:

Both the display of the page and the CSS rules in the Inspector should update.

Manually clearing the Cached Web Content in File > Preferences > Privacy & Security > Clear Data before reloading will cause a successful update.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'DevTools::Inspector' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.
