I am not sure I understand your use-case, if you change mtime backward geany won't trigger, but if the file size is changed the tarball won't be consistent anyway, so there is not reason to set mtime backward, so geany will trigger.
But as you say the change is minimal for local filesystems. I would want to know this works for all sorts of funny file systems, for GIO and non-GIO situations etc since we have always had issues with annoying unneccessary notifications and with missed notifications. We seem to have just got that calmed down a bit and I wouldn't want to stir it up again. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
