Re: date modified not accurate?

Hi,

Default behavior is that any action on a file (eg revert / update /
update-to-revision) timestamps the local copy with "now".

In TSVN->settings you can click "set filedates to the last commit time".
  However, I would not recommend this, especially if you use make. If
the last commit time happens to be earlier than the last build, make
will not consider the file to have been updated and will not rebuild it.
  I have found this to be a major problem with other version control
systems, especially on large projects with lots of header files.
