Description
Describe the bug
I am using remix with the @netlify/remix-edge-adapter. This bundles the remix server into an edge function at ./netlify/edge-functions/server.js
When I change a file that rebuilds the server, the above file is updated, but netfliy CLI doesn't realize a change, and thus doesn't reload function, so every time I make a change, I have to kill netlify dev and restart it. It does seem to work about 1 in 5-15 saves.
Video here of me replicating it: https://share.getcloudapp.com/L1uDojBD
Note it says "serving cache" in my logs- this has nothing to do with the edge function and isn't the issue here. https://wes.io/L1uDojBD

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the Netlify CLI using ./netlify/edge-functions/server.js and the provided Remix configuration, overwriting the generated file during netlify dev. Start by tracing the CLI's edge-function file watching and reload entry points. Done means repeated rebuilds consistently reload the edge function without restarting netlify dev.
