When you do a "Save Online", the score gets changed to record the MuseScore.com URL in the 'source' metatag (as can be seen in Score Properties), and marks the score 'dirty', indicating that there is a need to save it.
This is OK (or at least unavoidable), when using "Save Online" the first time, but it also does this when you do it a subsequent time, to update what is stored on MuseScore.com, here it changes the 'source' metatag too/again, by setting it to the very same value, so doesn't really change anything but still this does mark the score dirty, this time for no good reason.
If we'd check whether that tag is set and whether it is set to the same value, we could avoid setting it again and with that avoid having to mark the score dirty.
