Hi, Or could someone please show me, where the timestamp is rewritten in th= e code, so that I could change it and compile a local copy of git, that fits my needs? Perhaps I could even create a patch, that implements "--preserve-timestamps" and send it back. I've already searched in git-svn.perl but without success... :( TIA for any hints, --=20 Peter
