The files from [dspace-source] are copied to [dspace] during the "ant fresh_install" or "ant update" step. During update, ant will backup and replace some directories in [dspace], e.g. [dspace]/webapps to [dspace]/webapps.bak-20130614-142609. You're supposed to make changes in [dspace-source], build them using "mvn package" and deploy them using "ant update". At your own risk, it is possible to take a shortcut and edit files in [dspace]. These changes are _never_ automatically reflected in [dspace-source], you should _always_ do the change manually also in [dspace-source]. If you don't, your changes in [dspace] will be replaced the next time you run ant, as described above.
