This doesn't use Scamper or SAR files. Look at the Navigator flap, or 
the Projects menu.

I published a project at Squeakland-BSS (get the newest one!) called 
TestProjectFreshening-nk that will update a Project if necessary upon 
opening the project (that is, going to the project from some other 
project, or opening it from a browser).

I just added a Project>>freshen method (mostly copied from 
loadFromServer:), and a script for the World that runs this upon 
opening.

Crude but effective. It's more a proof of concept than anything else, 
but someone might want to run with it.
