| Sep 15, 2021 at 20:14 | comment | added | Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog | @KylePollard It seems the fix for this bug caused another bug: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/369891/… | |
| Sep 15, 2021 at 18:38 | comment | added | Kyle Pollard StaffMod | @SonictheAnonymousHedgehog After some investigation, we're not planning on tackling the last bug in your post right now, but we might come back to it in the future. See my answer for more details. | |
| Sep 15, 2021 at 17:38 | comment | added | Kyle Pollard StaffMod | @SonictheAnonymousHedgehog We've got a good understanding of what's broken here - it looks like your revision from the question you linked was a rollback to the Post Closed history item, which was a revision during the buggy period, but is no longer a revision after we fixed the bug. Thankfully we're referencing history item GUIDs and not the specific revision number in our database entries here, so we may be able to fix the data on any history items pointing at non-existent revisions during this period. | |
| Sep 15, 2021 at 17:24 | comment | added | Kyle Pollard StaffMod | @SonictheAnonymousHedgehog we're just discussing that now - the buggy behavior meant that all of the revision counts were off as the reopen/close entries were being shown as revisions. Just about to post an answer with some more context. | |
| Sep 15, 2021 at 16:42 | comment | added | Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog | @kristinalustig It seems that the fix for this bug (deployed recently) broke the edit summary for the last rollback I performed on that post. It shows as "Rollback to Revision 0"; it should show as "Rollback to Revision 4". | |
| Sep 15, 2021 at 15:13 | comment | added | This_is_NOT_a_forum | As of 2021-09-15T151245Z+0, the edit grace period is 0 seconds, at least on Stack Overflow main (but does require a change to the content (that functionality didn't change)). | |

Copying from above: we figured it out, we think. Turns out that one can break a whole lot of stuff with one little != instead of ==. We won't be able to push this tonight because we need to make sure that fixing this doesn't have unintended consequences elsewhere, but we'll be able to get it fixed ASAP tomorrow.

| Sep 14, 2021 at 23:19 | comment | added | Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog | @kristinalustig Seems I was kind of wrong. This is the question highlighted here. Attempting to rollback to revision 3 (with the current text) produces an error message "Unable to rollback to the current revision". Attempting it on revision 2 or any revision 4+ produces an error message "Unable to rollback because the revisions are identical." Rolling back to revision 1 worked, resulting in revision 11, and I self-reverted that rollback. | |
| Sep 14, 2021 at 22:01 | comment | added | kristinalustig StaffMod | Do you happen to have the exact text of the error message that you got when you tried to roll something back? We're digging into this bug right now and having the exact text would help us narrow it down. Thank you! | |
