Hi,
From looking at the documentation further it seems that if you have unpackWARs="false" with autoDeploy="true" then any new WARs will just get redeployed. See below.
However I have not found this to be true! Perhaps this is a bug?
Also if you update the context file in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/foo.xml the application is supposed to get redeployed (I have not tested this).
Is there an internal Tomcat 'memory' that remembers the last timestamp on the files? As my initial thoughts about it comparing the timestamps of the war and the expanded war seem to be incorrect.
--Doc---
Redeployment of a web application which has been deployed from a WAR when the WAR is updated: the expanded web application is removed, and the WAR is expanded again. This will not happen if the host is configured so that WARs are not expanded, in which case the webapp will be simply redeployed
---End Doc---
Thanks, Anthony.

"How then does it do it when you set unpackWARs="false"?"
It doesn't do it at all. You have to do it manually...
