Just bumping this issue – to clarify, currently we’re having to sync the ACF settings so they can be edited, delete the file on local, make changes, rexport a new JSON file, rename and put where the old file was, push back to repo.
With the last update we were able to just edit and save the file and it would automatically override the JSON file which we could just push straight to our repo.
We have JSON files in two places ( some in our theme and some in a plugin which are universally shared settings for all our sites).
