Time & date stamps #3

Closed djhaxton closed 9 years ago

djhaxton commented 9 years ago

Folks, This is a big picture issues and may simply not be fixable with git.

I really don't like the fact that I can perform 2 git clones at 2 different times in 2 different locations on my computer and have 2 sets of identical .f90s with different time stamps.

The destruction of the time stamp really seems a major downside. I hope there is a way we can preserve time stamps! Without using tar files obviously: Each file could have its own tarfile. I.e. the distribution could have MCTDH.SRC.TAR/mctdhf.f90.tar, etc. with MCTDH.SRC empty and a script to untar. If each file is protected in its own individual tarball then the timestamp will be preserved. But that makes the installation more difficult. So I don't know.
