GIT basically will not recognize any change, because at "file content level" there is no change, the SHA1 becomes the same.
That's what I suspected and that's right. Except git does also track permissions. timestamp is usually bogus to store.
note: looks like auto-generated files should not be tracked, you can add them to .gitignore and force the user to regenerate them.
Yeah.. that is how we do it for RTEMS but this is in a collection of addon packages and they were in the original upstream. I am working around this for now. This is the final set of edits to this repo. Once it is clean and building, the packages will not be built this way anymore. We will have recipes in the RSB. I altered the build script for this package to touch the generated file before configuring. That's a hack but this is short-lived. :)

On git is important the commits that affected a given file, e.g: git log src/some_file.c This is on imported source in a repo that has been converted from cvs to git. In the process, the timestamp on the autotools generated files got broken. I can touch them and all is good but git doesn't see that as a change.

It wants to run autoconf to regenerate them and doesn't need to. I did a find and touch locally but am not sure how to make that show up in git.
