Zip stores date and time "in standard MS-DOS format" according to <ftp://ftp.uu.net/pub/archiving/zip/doc/appnote-981119-iz.zip>. Reading InfoZip's code, in particular fileio.c, reveals that "standard MS-DOS format" will store times only with an accuracy of two seconds, this is where the truncation happens. > I could submit a brief note added to the appropriate Ant task docs > as to this behavior.
