Each build updates the file, thus dirtying the tree, requiring it to be checked in before a fetch or pull. Does the file need to exist in the git archive? It looks to be a generated file. [time passes, trying an experiment of removing it first] Ahh, it appears that something is using it before it would have been created or updated. This would appear to be a build bug. Can someone who is more familiar with this process help me understand why this is the way it is, so I can sort it out for the git archive? -- Randal L.
