The documentation for dependency:unpack [1] says that the default is to
overwrite (only) if newer.  But it seems to apply to the entire archive
being unpacked, meaning that the check is on whether the archive file
itself is "newer" or not, using what the plugin calls "marker files",
and perhaps not on whether the individual archived items are newer or
not (is that right?).

Is it possible to specify overwrite-if-newer such that it applies to the
timestamps on the individual zipped items in the source (I'm using zip
as the archive format)?  Or is this the default behavior (for example,
the Ant task for unZip [2] appears to have this property by default).
