Comment (by barufa):

 I have a question.

 If the ctime of a file has changed but the mtime is unchanged, we can
 update the existing Document (and avoid re-extracting the text). However,
 I am not sure of which is the cheapest(fastest) way to update it.

 Also, I don't know how to test the code properly. At the moment, I am
 using 'make check' but there are others options in the makefile.

 To sum up, I see a 'FIXME' coment (''FIXME: except permissions.'' at line
 553) and I cannot understand it. It said ' ''We only store and check the
 mtime (last modified) - a change to the metadata won't generally cause a
 previous failure to now work.'' '
