Description
Overview
When I want write to my local disk on an opened Gist it only works the first time. The second time I only have a Gist update and I can't save changes in my local. How I do it?
Reproduce:
:Gist -l
choose an old gist
make some changes
:w! ~/xxx/my_local_gist_copy <== it works fine, write in my local
:w! ~/xxx/my_local_gist_copy <== it only update the Gist
:w! <== it only update the Gist

Research direction
Reproduce the sequence from the issue: open an older Gist with :Gist -l, edit it, and run :w! ~/xxx/my_local_gist_copy twice, followed by :w!. Trace the Vim write handling and Gist update path; done means repeated writes continue to save the edited content to the local copy as expected.
