MD Settings: Race condition, local changes overriden when "sync" kicks in. |
||||
Issue descriptionRepro steps (see screencast video too): 1) Login to chrome and enable syncing. 2) In the "on startup" section select "Open new tab page". 3) Restart chrome 4) Before the sync settings are fetched (indicated by the missing status text under the "Sync" text in the People section), change the "on startup" selection to "Open a specific set of pages" 5) Wait until the sync settings are fetched (indicated by the status text again). Observe how the "on startup" selection has been erroneously changed back to "open new tab page" Seems like a race condition, that occurs when the user changes settings before the synced settings have been fetched. Perhaps this is the root cause of crbug.com/634020 .
