Yes, thank you. I'll fix that.

There's a conversion script for the ignore/grouping patterns; you don't have to
do that
by hand.

Well, the open itself shouldn't modify the mtime of the directory ... but the
creation
of a temporary file will.
You could try using the filter option "text,owner,mode,group,new,deleted" ...
that's
simply everything but mtime.
You won't see files with *only* mtime changed, too - but that might be ok, as
they
should be given as soon as the data changes.

Maybe ...
The symlinks are there just for informational purposes, and so they might stay.
If there's only a sqlite database, it's not that easy to see which working copy
this is.
Maybe I should put a "README" or something like that in there? But that's not
so easily
used by scripts ...

Fine ;-/, please tell me.

I'll be happy to hear any results!
