That's talking about the timestamp of the file in the working directory
that's being checked in, not the timestamp of the repository file or the
checkin date stored inside it. And that works as advertised:
bash-2.02$ ls -l foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 scjones wheel 4 Dec 1 1999 foo
bash-2.02$ cvs ci -m test -f foo
Checking in foo;
/tmp/cvstest/foo,v <-- foo
new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
done
bash-2.02$ ls -l foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 scjones wheel 4 Dec 1 1999 foo
-Larry Jones
