    I'm curious you'd see it in ls -l Did inode change? I remember making the same mistake. I think everyone sees this sometime during the career

      The inode does change, yeah:

      Show

      The regular ls -l doesn't show the inode on my system, though. I only realized it when I had assigned more permissions to the file and those got reset by deleting the file. The last-modified timestamp also gets updated each time, but I only spotted that afterwards...
