* [sup-devel] [issue71] Move sources last update from .sup/sources.yaml

New submission from anonymous:

I save sup configuration files on sources control so I can move freely between
computers. .sup/sources.yaml is updated on every pull - makes it very annoying
to commit all the time.

Can you separate the "where" in sources from the "when"? This way I can track
only the "where" file.

Thanks,

Miki

In general, I support this idea[1].  Storing state with configuration
isn't ideal for many reasons.

That being said, there is some tight coupling that would need some
attention to overcome this.

Just my $0.02 CDN.
