SVN DIRECTORY TIMESTAMPS ON EXPORT
Hello,
I've already sent this to users list, and no answer still :(
Hope dev stuff will shine some light on my issue.
-------------------------------
OS: Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-47
SVN: version 1.1.2 (r12471)
I use the following command to export my project from SVN repository
export -r HEAD --force svn://some.host/rep/project/trunk/ /home/user/project
Each time when I use that command directories timestamps are
updated with export time (like now). Files came with commit-timestamps
from the repository.
The question is why directories timestamps are updated each time.
Thanks!

Best regards,

exports aren't incremental. So each invocation of that command is doing
a fresh export, overwriting what you might have had in the target.

Well, they aren't being "updated" by svn; they're being updated by the
operating system as a result of svn redoing the export.
Perhaps we should be setting directory timestamps on some or all
checkouts or exports; this is the first time anyone has thought about
it, I think.
