The client manual lists the following items that will cause a file to be
treated as "changed":
– File size
– Date or time of last modification
– Extended Attributes
– Access Control List
– Sparse, reparse point or encrypted file attributes.
– NTFS file security descriptors. These are the Owner Security Identifier
(SID),
Group SID, Discretionary Access Control List (ACL), and System ACL.
So yes, if the folder is changed, and the change is propagated to child
files and directories, then all those objects will be considered "changed".
