This is called from the L<tl-update-tlnet> script, which is run nightly.
+To reiterate the above: this program works by comparing revision numbers
+in the tlpdb files, not the contents of files. Thus, if the content of
+some source file is changed (e.g., making changes to C<TeXLive/*.pm>),
+but the tlpdb revision number is not changed, this program will think
+that nothing needs to be updated. So, the approach for development
+without having to do full rebuilds is to manually edit the
+C<texlive.tlpdb> file in the destination directory and decrement the
+revision number (or increment the revision in the source's
+C<texlive.tlpdb>).
