As Junio pointed out to me, Git actually already does what I want when switching branches. To verify, I switched between 5 branches after setting a specific timestamp on a particular file, and it did not change throughout the process. Now I'm left wondering when this changed or whether my memory is faulty. I could have sworn this did not work previously. :-)
