Browser not reloading on file event change

Issue details

Please provide issue details here. Browser not reloading on file event change, sometimes it will but in another session it does not reload

Steps to reproduce/test case

Running Browsersync v2.23.6 with Gulp & VVV local development, browser is not reloading after file has changed, the issue is intermittent, singular body tag exists.

Issue is odd as sometimes the reload works - then it will simply stop and I am not able to get it going even with a gulp task restart, browsersync sync and browser restart.

Please provide necessary steps for reproduction of this issue, or better the reduced test case (without any external dependencies).

Gulp task

// Fire up browserSync
gulp.task('sync', function() {
    browserSync.init({
        proxy: "mysite.test",
	files: ["./*.css","*.php","css/*css","lib/*.php", "includes/*.php", "includes-child/*.php", "includes-child/woocommerce/*.php", "includes-child/woocommerce/*.css"],
	xip: false

    });

});

Have tried… Rrestarting all the things, Check for duplicate instances of body tag Changed proxy value to localhost:3000 Resync’ing browsers from UI xip values both true and false

Here’s the solution that worked for me:

browserSync.init({
  injectChanges: false
});

injectChanges is true by default: https://www.browsersync.io/docs/options#option-injectChanges
