welcome to the world of continuous updates
1. you can use <uptodate> to trigger stuff only if all the source java
files, properties and xml stuff included in the app has changed. You see, it
is often more than just java source that comprises an app.
2. cruise control does a check out and rebuild if the source in SCM has
changed, but not in the last few minutes (see cruisecontrol.sf.net).
