[Hmmm, I could have sworn I replied to this over the weekend, but it does 
not seem to be here....]

Anyway, there is a problem with setting commit-times to yes in the config 
file.  The problem is that, while this is desirable for checkouts, it is 
not desirable for updates.  Unfortunately, the option applies to both when 
set in the config file.

In our environment for developers, we suggest that they *not* set 
commit-times to yes in the config file, because updates should always set a 
newly updated file's timestamp to 'now' rather than the commit time of the 
file, thus forcing a rebuild.  Instead, we use a wrapper script for 
checkout only, where the commit times are used for timestamps -- necessary 
for us, because certain packages should not redo any automake step, and 
when the timestamps are random, this sometimes happens.
