I'm just used to tar, cpio, scp -a, rsync -a, ar, etc. using 'date +%s'
seconds internally, so no timezone problem.

I hate it when I get some latest WhizBang.tgz, only to untar it to
find all the files' dates the same, when in fact the README hasn't
been touched in seven years, but you can't tell that from ls -l. I
recall some content tracker was involved.

Of course I'll allowing you to know my delicate first day impressions.
I'm sure as I grow older I will learn the difference between content
tracker and archiver.
