A "fsvs status" looks at the sizes and timestamps.
If the size is different, the file is known to be changed; if only the ctime
or mtime differs, it *may* have changed.
For directories the size does not really help much.
The difference between "commit" and "status" is that "status" is faster, ie.
it doesn't always check if there are *really* changes.
If you need an exact result, you can do
fsvs status -C
which checks directories for new entries even if their timestamps haven't
changed, or
fsvs status -C -C
which does an additional MD5 check over files.
Commit does include a single "-C", so it *may* find changes that status
doesn't show.
1.1.7 will allow to define the checksum level in the configuration file.
