 * Hi,
 * When I update wordpress multi-site with
    automatic network update, is it true
   that wordpress only downloads the renewed files and not all files? Because it
   went really quick from 3.0.1. to 3.0.2. My file monitor also said only these 
   files where changed:
 * wp-load.php
    readme.html wp-config-sample.php wp-content/languages/ms-nl.po wp-
   content/languages/nl.mo wp-content/languages/ms-nl.mo wp-content/languages/nl.
   po wp-content/plugins/exploit-scanner/exploit-scanner.php wp-content/plugins/
   exploit-scanner/readme.txt wp-includes/version.php wp-includes/comment.php wp-
   includes/functions.php wp-includes/ms-files.php wp-includes/load.php wp-includes/
   post.php wp-includes/canonical.php wp-includes/capabilities.php wp-includes/wp-
   db.php wp-admin/error_log wp-admin/setup-config.php wp-admin/plugins.php wp-admin/
   includes/media.php wp-admin/includes/file.php wp-admin/includes/plugin.php wp-
   admin/includes/update-core.php
 * Kind regards,
 * Jaap

 * I’m sorry I don’t mean network update, I mean automatic core update. You have
   to click the network update after the core update.
 * When I do automatic core update the above thing happens. So does automatic upgrade
   just chooses changed file from the server and rewrites them? Looks like it? Is
   that ok?

 * Yes, that’s what it does. Yes that is okay.
 * Why reinstall files that haven’t changed?

 * That’s true that also saves time instead of manual install.
