Details

This Module just add a unix-timestamp parameter to each skin-url which uses

// skin
\Mage_Core_Model_Design_Package::getSkinUrl()

// merged css
\Mage_Core_Model_Design_Package::getMergedCssUrl()

// merged js
\Mage_Core_Model_Design_Package::getMergedJsUrl()

to get URLs like that example:

<!-- merged css -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://my-domain.com/media/css/80155168870b61c9ca5c888e4b01857c.css?1509972745">

<!-- vendor include of jQuery -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://my-domain.com/skin/frontend/my-package/my-design/js/vendor/jquery.min.js?1478112303"></script>

<!-- It will append it to every url which is a file in skin folder. So it also works for images -->
<link rel="icon" href="http://my-domain.com/skin/frontend/my-package/my-design/favicon.ico?1478112292" type="image/x-icon">

By default there is no need to update .htaccess.
