I am using Mozy to do remote backup of a project, and it does not

Xcode (Mozy will detect the update a day or so later). The file is
shown by the Finder with the correct (recent) modification time. If
I then touch the file from the shell, Mozy does detect that it has
been updated, and does a backup.
Mac programs generally don't overwrite an existing file when changing
it, but save to a new file and then atomically exchange the old and
new file. See e.g. https://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Carbon/Reference/File_Manager/Reference/reference.html
#//apple_ref/c/func/FSExchangeObjects (FSExchangeObjects). I guess
this Mozy program should listen for different kinds of events rather
than only date/time changes to existing files.
