Description

currently, the repository scanner only processes files that have changed since a given time - however some consumers (notable the repository purge) will want to consume a file every time (I was under the impression this was the case already). I believe the timestamp check should be delegated to the consumer.

Currently, the repository purge code does not work on most repositories because the artifacts have already been processed and so don't get scanned again.
