Here you will notice that all the Content Services-related JavaScript files have big numbers in their file names. For example, the my-sites.js file is not just called that but instead something like my-sites_0500545812b99c1ed156728185c19b24.js. This is because the Spring Surf framework includes a checksum in the file name so it is more stable during upgrades of the software.
