What is the use case for this? For a production setup, in theory the only time a file of interest to Starman would change is when a package upgrade occurs, in which case Starman would be bounced anyway.
Starman author discourages this use and for production is not relevant. Perhaps for plugins but again, better think about it in a narrower context then this bug
