Description Ross Burton 2016-04-07 21:50:33 UTC 
If the archiver is inherited it adds a new task before build which invalidates lots of stamps.

Is this expected?  Should we archive the source on every build?  Or have archiving as an explicit action for both performance and not changing hashes?

Design choice, apparently.
