Preserve timestamps on uploads #274

Open tallerinf opened 4 years ago

tallerinf commented 4 years ago

When loading files from server, NppFTP makes a local copy and updates the filestamp of the file.

Maybe you only want to take a look but the file gets updated so you lose important information like when I "really" updated lasttime that file.

This has an easy solution with FileZilla, just activating the option: "Preserve filestamps on transferred files" on Transfer menu.

My NppFTP version is 0.30.2.

Do you know if this is going to be implemented on NppFTP?

Or do you know a workaround to avoid filestamps from getting updated on transferring files?

There's no such option right now, and I think it'll require custom logic for each backend although it shouldn't be too tough (see this reply for libssh).
