Except that the github interface lists updated date-times for all
files by default already.

And how do you respond to my previously noted problems? To repeat ...

There are a variety of issues with forcing style authors to update the
cs:updated values manually:

- it's tedious
- it's error prone (easy to forget to do, most basically)
- it mixes content and metadata (the metadata changes the sha1 value)

You mean like pre-commit or pre-push script?

That solves some of my issues above, but not all of them.
