mtime comparison checks for statically pre-compressed content?

[mqudsi]

Is there any way to include mtime comparisons if brotli_static is set to auto such that if the .br file is older than the original, it isn't used?

We've developed an open-source tool to aid in static-compression of web content, (github link) and we've found that setting the mtime on the .br or .gz copy to match the source mtime is a good way of keeping cached content up-to-date without re-caching everything. It would be great if, should one update a resource and forget to update the cached copy, ngx_brotli did not serve the outdated version.

Thanks!

Will try. The thing is - we should try to avoid accessing the file system unless it is strictly necessary.
