I prune out kernel sources for architectures other that the one I run (to
conserve disk space) and usually (even now) only get changed files.  There
have been a couple of times in the past month or so where sup has fetched/
updated all files -- once when a chmod -R was run on the tree, and when
the failing disk on the server was replaced...

Faith is the quality that enables you to eat blackberry jam on a picnic

Contrary to popular belief, Unix is user friendly.  
It just happens to be selective about who it makes friends with.
