Updating cache with local resolvers doesn't update the UI

See original GitHub issue

See a minimal reproduction here, since it isn’t easy to explain: https://codesandbox.io/s/fervent-hawking-o2bt5

If you watch the console, you can see that when you click the button, the resolver is running and the new data is being written to the cache. However, the useQuery query in the UI (App.js) is not rerunning, and the data is stale as a result.

Expected result

The UI updates when I press the button to show the new value of the cache.

@benjamn any plans to fix issues with Apollo Local state soon? I’ve been running into several issues with it. I like the idea of being able to do GraphQL on both client and server but it just seems the local state side of apollo has a lot of issues.

Just a follow up on my comments here. I create a code repo and I couldn’t reproduce the issue there. So obviously, something else is going on. For those who might find it useful: https://codesandbox.io/s/naughty-glitter-wzmof The actual cause for my issue was an undetected remount of the ApolloProvider which lead to the cache being cleaned.
