I think it might actually have to do with the timestamps and permissions
on the files. When you tar an archive, the timestamps and permissions
on the files once they are untared are preserved. I think there is an
argument you can give cp ( -p, preserve? ) to preserve permissions and
timestamps.
Does anyone want to try and see if that is it? :)
It's "cp -a". If you use that then you'll get the same effect as
tar'ing it up and then un-tarring it with the p option.
