`rev` option: bundle hash is not stable

I’m submitting a bug report

• Library Version: 0.24.0

Please tell us about your environment:

• Operating System: Windows Server 2012

• Node Version: 6.1.0

• NPM Version: 3.9.0

Current behavior: We enabled rev option for prod, and the bundle hash changes every time we run npm run prod even source files don’t have any changes. We compare the bundles, and found the source files are not loaded in a stable order when generate bundle.

Expected/desired behavior:

• What is the expected behavior? The bundle hash should not change if no changes in source files.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Define a bundle in aurelia.json like this:

    {
        "name": "the-bundle.js",
        "source": [
          "[**/folder/**/*]"
        ]
    }

1. Create some components(.html and .js pairs) in folder. There are about 30 components in my case.
2. Enable rev for prod
3. Run npm run prod several times.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

1. When we do a deployment, we only want to replace the bundle with changes.
2. Making the hash stable can help on website performance.

Yep. Thanks!

Closing this (since it was initially a duplicate). Please resume discussion over at the original issue https://github.com/aurelia/cli/issues/378, I’ll reopen that one.
