Sorry for the long delay, but could you create a reproduction recipe I
could use to fix this?

Thanks!

bye,

Erik.

Hi Erik,

No worries! I appreciate your assistance. As it turns out, I don't think
that
the problem is correct as originally described. I tried to replicate it
using
a trivial example, and I couldn't.

I think what happened was as follows. I checked out my original working
copy
with the "use-commit-times" switch commented. That puts the time of the
check-out
on every file, which I definitely didn't expect. So I removed the comment
and
somehow expected "update" to fix the timestamps. (Actually, I don't think I
thought
about it that much.) Of course, none of the timestamps changed, and so I
created
a dummy bdb repository which worked as expected (because I had started with
the
use-commit-times uncommented), and so I blamed fsfs.

So if anything, the "problem" is that on the initial check-out, with
"use-commit-times"
commented, you get the check-out time, not the time of last modification of
the
file. When use-commit-times is not commented, you *do* actually get the
last commit
time of the files (not directories), as expected.

I think that I was quick to anticipate a problem with use-commit-times
because one of
my colleagues has mentioned that he has problems with use-commit-times.
Sorry about that.

Regards,

Peter.
