It's optional. One of the reasons for ClearMake is that it handles the
problems conventional make has when versioned timestamps move
backwards in time.

I'm not all that keen on svn:tarballs, but I'm not all that keen on
svn:externals either. Is anyone using svn:externals? Is it much
better than doing the same thing outside the client (manually or via a
script)?
