I learned from http://marc.info/?l=git&m=122783905206964&w=2 that all Git commands do not preserve file timestamps because Git, by design, does not record timestamps in the tree objects. So, in order to see the last time a particular file changed, you must examine the commit log. I guess I'll just have to get used to ignoring the working copy file timestamps. Derek
