* Package name : git-restore-mtime Version : git only; asking upstream Upstream Author : Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion) * URL : https://github.com/MestreLion/git-tools * License : GPL3+ Programming Lang: Python Description : set timestamps to the date of a file's last commit This utility can set timestamps in a git checkout to the last commit that changes a given file. This is useful whenever meaningful mtimes are wanted, as "last change" is better than "last checkout". Use cases include syncing timestamps on a web server's contents, preparing a release tarball, etc. Pretty much, every scenario other than an unclean source tree where you're about to type "make" without "make clean". . When called from a post-checkout trigger, this is the equivalent of Subversion's "use-commit-times". . Unlike metastore, git restore-mtime gives you only commit times rather than the true original timestamp; on the other hand it works retroactively and doesn't require a manual action by every contributor in every working copy. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
