Dear Mr. Koning,


    Yes , I see that subversion support good functions but based on lost file modify date. Is it?

    I like subversion client very much. But as an end user, we can't select a version control system which can't save file modify date. Because this is very important for our team-work in software developement progress. It's so sorry.

    I think that you can get better idea yourself to shot the problem later. Perhaps other version control system could be your referrence. If this problem is ok, contract me as soon as you can please. We'll select subversion as our version control system.



Thanks & Best Regards,
