Changes in the entry key marks file as modified

Hi,

We are using the o11n-package to version control our VCO artifacts.  Once a developer is done with his VCO changes we use the import-package to get the package content in the expanded format.

But we're finding out that almost every file is getting marked as modified as there are changes made to <entry key id> field in every xxx.element_info.xml.  This virtually makes tracking the changes an impossible task.

Is there a way to overcome this ? How are other teams handling the issue ? Maybe we are missing something ?

Thanks,
