gdc_loadfile does not observe or respect datestamps properly #57

Closed noblem closed 7 years ago

noblem commented 7 years ago

Today (2017_09_11) I tried make test_loadfile from a directory tree in which I had not done test_mirror and test_dice since 2017_07_19:

ls sandbox/mirror/TCGA/TCGA-ACC/metadata/ 2017_07_19

But, instead of gdc_loadfile discovering the 2017_07_09 data and using it, it complained that there was no 2017_09_11 data instead!
