Thanks, this might have saved me some work. Concretely the page says "it is not required to keep track of which files have seen significant changes in the new year and which have not. It is recommended and simpler to add the new year to all files in the package, and be done with it for the rest of the year." So if we do have a script that automatically updates only changed files nothing speaks against using it, isn't it? I would say "recommended and simpler" is actually meaning "recommended because it simpler" ...
