sound like one of those embarrassing elementary answers that I should
have known it the first place.

well, that's what I'm here for, to give the newbie point of view
"i pretend to be a newbie"

therefore whatever answer that one should have known already, should
still be added to the man page

I.e.

S> `-m, --preserve-modification-time'
S>      Retain previous file modification times when creating files.
