Well, I wanted to keep the old timestamps so that the encrypted volume
looks like a file that's never used (this is the reason why Truecrypt
does this). But I guess there's a tradeoff to be made here, so I will
implement it the way you suggested.
Thanks!

Hello,
I'm using rsync to make backups. In my dataset, however, there are a
few encrypted Truecrypt volumes. When these files are modified, the
content changes but the timestamps are not updated. Thus, rsync will
not sync these files by default. I would like to keep the behavior of
Truecrypt and have rsync update the files correctly.
Why not change the date before running rsync? Unix has the "touch"
command. I don't think windows has a utility to do that, but a google
search for "change file date windows command line" turned up some
likely options.
