Dave, Sorry, I misread your first message. With "standard behaviour" I referred to was setting the modification time to the current time (time of update). That behaviour I have observed at least with TortoiseSVN.
The 'special' variable you mention is set if the file is a special file and therefore the timestamp does not matter, see [1]. In my version of SVNKit (1.3.5), this code is called only by doExport, so it does not apply when doing an update. I know that SVNKit uses the default Subversion client configuration (~/.subversion/config on Unix) -- but I do not know if the use-commit-times options is properly adhered to everywhere in the code. I am currently not using this feature in SVNKit. You might want to try specifying your own ISVNOptions, where you can return false in isUseCommitTimes(). If that is not an option for you and the option in the config file has no impact, maybe you should file a bug.

Certainly not standard behaviour in the Linux svn client or the Windows svn executable from Collabnet. Here is what I get in Linux: david@laptop:~/test$ ls --time-style=full-iso -l total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 14 2012-08-03 00:03:49.786793555 -0700 foo david@laptop:~/test$ svn ci -m "committing" Sending foo Transmitting file data . Committed revision 2. david@laptop:~/test$ ls --time-style=full-iso -l total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 14 2012-08-03 00:03:49.786793555 -0700 foo david@laptop:~/test$ svn up -r 1 U foo Updated to revision 1. david@laptop:~/test$ ls --time-style=full-iso -l total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 0 2012-08-03 00:04:13.995662967 -0700 foo david@laptop:~/test$ svn up -r HEAD U foo Updated to revision 2. david@laptop:~/test$ ls --time-style=full-iso -l total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 14 2012-08-03 00:04:25.768085454 -0700 foo All timestamps are monotonically increasing as it should be. The ~/.subversion/config in Linux says: ### Set use-commit-times to make checkout/update/switch/revert ### put last-committed timestamps on every file touched. which to me implies that the default is to NOT use commit times on every file touched. This might be the culprit in SVNUpdateClient16.java: if (modified && !special) { timestamp = SVNFileUtil.getFileLastModified(adminArea.getFile(fileName)); } else { timestamp = SVNDate.parseDateAsMilliseconds(entry.getCommittedDate()); } ... if (!special && timestamp > 0) { SVNFileUtil.setLastModified(dstPath, timestamp); } I'm guessing that "special" means to use the committed date. I'm not sure what SVNFileUtil.getFileLastModified(adminArea.getFile(fileName)) is all about but it somewhat matches what I was seeing, where the timestamp after updating didn't even match up with any prior commit times, it was some other time, possible it is this "admin area time".
