Filipe Laíns <[email protected]> added the comment:
tarfile will keep the mtime from the file, the issue is that you are touching
the files in the beginning of the script. When you write to the files, you
change the mtime (last modified time), which produces a different TarInfo. If
you comment out the code that writes to the files, you get the exact same
output.
#dir0 = Path("/tmp/a")
#dir0.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
#fil0 = dir0 / "eph0"
#fil0.write_text("Text 0", encoding="UTF-8")
#fil1 = dir0 / "eph1"
#fil1.write_text("Text 1", encoding="UTF-8")
#fil2 = dir0 / "eph2"
#fil2.write_text("Text 2", encoding="UTF-8")
$ python compress.py

If you are in a situation where the mtime may change, but you want the same
output, you can reset it. See the last example in
https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tar-examples.
