Way to update timestamp to committed timestamp?

When someone checks in a file, their timestamp has the
time of the last edit.  When another user gets the
update, their timestamp has the time of when the last
edit was committed.

Is there a way for the committer to have their
timestamp on a file updated to the commit time?

My users are use to comparing timestamps of files to
see if they are talking about the same files, but now
the committer has a different timestamp than everyone
else.

thanks!

I recreated the 'bug', I will ask if it really is one.
 I'm guessing it is a design oversight, or maybe they
just really don't want it to update the timestamp of
the guy checking in the file.

thanks!

You should probably be asking whether that is a bug then.  It sounds like 
an oversight to me.

I need something that will work on "svn ci".  The
person committing the file is not getting the commit
time on the file, they are getting the last edit time.
 We already have "use-commit-times" turned on (unless
the user turned it off).

Look for "use-commit-times" here:
