| for changed files found when comparing CVS resources. Usually, time stamps |
| are used to compare CVS files, and this is by far the fastest method. However, |
| in some cases a more accurate comparison can be achieved by comparing file |
| content. Disabling this option will speed up comparisons but may result |
| in compare entries whose contents are the same. This option only applies |
| to comparisons and merges but not Workspace synchronizations.</TD> |
