STM32CubeMx Feature request : remove date / time in generated files headers or do not regenerated identical files

Hi

All generated file headers are providing date/time in their headers.

When doing a re-generate code, some files are re-created exactly the same

except the generated date-time.

That's really annoying when using version control system which asks you to

commit changes while obviously there are not.

I can see two solutions for this issue ;

- remove the date-time from the file (useless when using vcs but may be usefull...)

- compare the new generated ''active code'' of the file and write on the disk only if there

are changes.

Regards

Julien

Really annoying, makes the commits hard to navigate and hides the real changes.
