Auto save appears to overwrite edits made on copied post #98556
Description
Context and steps to reproduce
Auto save appears to revert any post title changes of a newly copied post. Content does not appear to be affected. However, if you exit the editor and look at the list of drafts, you will see that the new post title was correctly saved.
To reproduce the issue:
- Copy a post.
- Edit the title of the new post.
- Either click on "Save draft" or wait for auto save.
- Exit the editor and check the drafts to see the new post title.
- Enter the editor for the new post and see that the changes were in fact saved.
Example of title reverting:
Original post's title: Testing Auto Save 01 add2
Attempted to change new post's title to: Testing Auto Save 02 Copy Post
