Subject: | Adding the generation time to the bottom of generated html confuses CVS |
Marek::Pod::HTML generated a 'banner' at the bottom of every single file, in the form
Generated by Marek::Pod::HTML 0.48 on Sat Jan 4 19:50:35 2003
Now, I don't really care about the banner being there, but when I change some documentation in a large class tree, and run Marek::Pod::HTML over the file tree to update the documentation, index and toc, I would expect that only files that have ACTUALLY changed, have their .html files changes.
Unfortunately, CVS sees every single file ( and there are lots ) to have changed, simply because the generated banner has a different date value.
I would recommend the banner become optional, perhaps with a -banner option, turned on by default.
