It can be different things... locally generated files that contain
timestamps, which cause a new revision to be committed each time, also
local configuration files - those where a template is in the repository
and it's edited on the client, but you don't normally want that
committed back to the repository.
Also things like binary builds (if you have binaries in the
repository).. you don't necessarily want all the intermediate test
builds to be committed back, only ones that specifically committed as
stable.
Essentially the ks flag says you don't care what happens on the client -
the repository version is always the most current.
