Description Jesse Glick 2001-04-12 14:29:36 UTC
The <makelayer> task always recreates the layers even if the contents are
unchanged. In vcsgeneric module, this means that vcsgeneric.jar is always
recreated even when there is no source change. It should avoid changing the
timestamp on the layer, or creating a new copy of the layer at all, if the
contents would not change.
