: This happened to me too last week. I'm hazy about when, but my
: understanding has been that in the past .Dd *didn't* automatically get
: updated. When should it be, when shouldn't it be? If it should be
: automatic, we should write a macro which sets it from $FreeBSD$.
content changes, but not typos or formatting, is when it should be
bumpped. Also on MFC, the date used is the one in -current, not the
date that you MFC. This makes it hard to automate.
