That post describes exactly also my dilemma. SVN is quite nice, but I
would be much happier if timestamps would be kept by default!
I hope that this problem really gets to the developers. Would be great to
have that feature!

(Just to be fair: CVS doesn't keep the timestamps either.
But: Though that's no excuse not to fix this design flaw.)
