DefaultArtifactInstaller should only overwrite files if timestamp has changed
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MARTIFACT-19
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MARTIFACT-19
             Project: Maven Artifact
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: Linux, JDK 1.5
            Reporter: Johannes Martin


install:install (from maven-install-plugin) by default uses 
DefaultArtifactInstaller to install artifacts. DefaultArtifactInstaller in turn 
uses FileUtils.copyFile(), thereby overwriting destination files even if they 
are unchanged. It would be helpful if DefaultArtifactInstaller used 
FileUtils.copyFileIfModified() instead, at least as an option, to speed up the 
build process.
