32 # Function : UpdateFileIfChanged

34 # if the file has changed it moves the new version into the old
35 # versions place. This is used so we only change files if
36 # needed, so we can do proper dependency tracking and we don't
37 # needlessly check files into CVS that haven't changed.
38 # It returns 0 if the file hasn't changed, and 1 if it has.

40 # $new_file - the pathname of the new version of the file.
41 # $make_backup - 1 if a backup of the old file should be kept.
42 # It will have the .bak suffix added to the file name.
