Forresters,
I noticed that when I rebuild my static site with Forrest 0.8, the
"skin" directory seems to be copied unconditionally to the build/site/
directory. This means that, because the local files have been
rewritten and consequently have newer modification times than the
remote files, skin/ is uploaded each time I use lftp's reverse mirror
function to publish changes to my public Web site, even if nothing in
the skin has changed.
Can the Ant target that copies the non-generated content to
build/site/ be changed to only copy files (including skin files) if
the source file has changed?
I see no problem with that, but it would need testing thoroughly. If you
do this testing on your own site and provide a patch we'd be happy to
apply it.
without looking at our build file (forrest.build.xml) I think the
copying of resources is done by the Ant Copy command, see
