Use exiv2 or exiftool to reset the "file date" to the "photo creation
date" prior to importing into darktable. I have a one-line script/alias I
use:
alias redate='lc;exiftool -overwrite_original
'\''-DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate'\'' ./*.{nef,jpg}'
that is one line with a <space> after "-overwrite_original"
lc is lowercase, alias lc='/usr/bin/lowercase_filenames'
modify ./*.{nef,jpg} to suit your particular needs
I use exiftool but exiv2 provides similar function, modification
necessary. Looking at exiv2 the alias would be much simpler, but...
