I think you are misunderstanding how auto save works with editors on linux. The file you are editing is usually saved as a different file. So if you are editing "myfile.txt" then the older version of the file is kept as "myfile.txt~" and the autosaved file is usually saved as #myfile.txt#. This 2nd part differs depending on what editor you are using. I am not very familiar with gedit's behaviour to give any more details.
