--nextPart7088050.vtmYzkemRD Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Hello, is it possible that mtime of a file can be changed without also changing=20 ctime? Vice versa is easy, chmod or similar will do that. But if I change=20 mtime with touch, also ctime gets changed. I ask because I'm about writing a little backup script and want to be sure = to=20 capture every file on any imaginable modification when comparing only ctime!
