Hi all,
one of the smaller issues when comparing cvs and fossil is the handling
of mtime on checkout and update. If you checkout a new working copy with
CVS, all files will get the time of last commit as mtime. This is highly
useful as it makes it very easy to find out the age of a file when
browsing a directory. On update, cvs picks the start time as new mtime.
That way, files that are modified get a new timestamp and dependency
tracking e.g. with make works. Is there a good reason to not adopt this
behavior for fossil?

Joerg
