Get Info via OS X UI on app with changed version data still shows old value, unless copied, then it works

Confused here about where "Get Info" on an app bundle gets its info...
I'm sure this is basic stuff for you guys, but I'm relatively new at
this.

I have a directory called say "AppDir" with an application bundle in
it called "App1". I altered the various version strings and what-not
in App1/Info.plist and App1/Resources/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
to newer values (just edited and saved them as appropriate). I then
did a Get Info on the App1 bundle and the General > Version data still
shows the _old_ data. Scratching my head as to why... Then I
duplicated App1 to "App1 copy" and tried a Get Info on the App1 bundle
in the duplicated directory. It shows the proper changed value in the
General > Version data.

So the original I manipulated always seems to show the old version
string data via Get Info but copies of the directory/app show the
changed value. Anyone know what's going on here?

Thanks in advance...

Chris
