But, the "new" foo.bak would have the mtime and size of the "old" foo,
which would be different from the "old" foo.bak

$ ls -l foo*
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx yyy 0 Feb 11 11:10 foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx yyy 0 Feb 11 11:09 foo.bak

$ mv foo foo.bak

$ touch foo

$ ls -l foo*
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx yyy 0 Feb 11 11:11 foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx yyy 0 Feb 11 11:10 foo.bak
