Nothing. It is not obvious that you want to upgrade these files without looking at the changes. > Does anybody ever edit admin??? Why would you.

Moreover it would be responsibility of the app that may have been edited to keep the md5 of the original version. It is a nighmare and not worth the tourble. The options at this point are: 1) have links in admin that after web2py upgrade offer to upgrade admin/welcome/examples (with an optional remider popup) 2) always upgrade admin and examples but not welcome (because people do edit welcome). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
