Issue Summary
This is a great module.
However, can you clear out the differences between "Reset" and "Ignore" options?
Thank you,
Ofir.

not sure what "clear out" means - do you mean "clarify"?
When you first edit a node that has a saved version you see VIEW and IGNORE.
IGNORE: means to ignore that there is a saved version and take the version that was last saved, i.e. the version you see on the screen when you initially edit
VIEW: will load the saved version
if you have selected VIEW you get:
RESET: takes you back to previous view, i.e. initial edit view, i.e. last saved version
IGNORE: same as above
KEEP: keep the saved version

Sorry to say that I also don't understand the autosave UI and the response above adds to the confusion. The phrase "saved version" is ambiguous. Which one is the version saved by the Autosave module and which one is the version manually saved by the user using save button?

sorry, yes that was confusing.. how about this:
IGNORE: means to ignore that there is an AUTOSAVED version and take the version that was last SUBMITTED, i.e. forget that the popup is telling you there was an Autosaved version and take what you currently see on the screen (which is the current rev stored in node table)
VIEW: will load the AUTOSAVED version that the popup is informing you exists
if you have selected VIEW you get:
RESET: takes you back to previous view, i.e. initial edit view, i.e. last submitted version, i.e the one in the node table
IGNORE: same as above
KEEP: keep the AUTOSAVED version and begin editing from that copy - NOTE: hasn't been submitted yet so STILL does not exist in the node table.
Hope that clears things up.
