Scott T Weaver commented on JS2-338:
------------------------------------

Ate,

The Bad News:  Looks like this is gonna bite us again.  I have files in my 
webapp that are older than the ones created by the j2:portal.genapp, so my 
customized files arent. getting copied by the "war" goal.

The Good News:  Found a great "hack" for this.  I added a "<touch>" at the  
j2:portal.copy.webapp.minimal and j2:portal.copy.webapp goals which looks like 
this:

        <touch millis="1">
                <fileset dir="${portal.webapp.dir}" />
        </touch>

This effectively sets the Last-Modified dates to sometime in late 1969 :)  This 
means that any custom files you have, as long as they are post 1969, will be 
copied by the "war" goal.  

Let me know if you think this is a valid solution for this issue and I will 
commit my changes.  

Thanks,
-Scott
