"Save as..." doesn't work from "The file has been changed by another application" warning #555

I wonder if this is related to #48. I'm seeing an issue with a document that has unsaved changes. Occasionally when I leave a document open for multiple days with unsaved changes I get this warning:

"The document “x.md” could not be autosaved.
The file has been changed by another application."

The problem I have is that if I select the "Save as..." option and select a different location then the file doesn't save in that new location and the same warning pops up again.

Can you just regular save it, instead of saving as?

@Jmuccigr I think the issue is that this dialog indicates and promises modern document handling but doesn't deliver on that promise. I could save and start a new git branch instead of using 'Save as...' (the document I'm editing is in a git repo) but I'm hoping for a bug fix and not a workaround.

Haven't looked at the code, but I was hoping it was some flaw in the logic and not too complicated.

@stevemoser Can you see if my PR #564 resolves this issue?
