Can you guarantee that this file will have been _modified_ in every
commit? Otherwise I believe you are in danger of rejecting commits
because only _other_ files have changed and not your holy grail...
Project files like that only tend to change when settings are changed or
files added/removed, not just when file contents are changed?
