File modification date not preserved with SFTP copy (FTP/WebDav)

[ono]

Hi,

Here goes my first post to this nice forum. So hello everybody :D

Today I was moving my website to new virtual server. Using SSH/SFTP I've realized that ForkLift is not preserving file modification dates when copying files to remote server, instead it is creating all copies with time of NOW.

This is really a pity since it is quite necessary to have those dates untouched, I've pretty many software releases and I want them to be stored on the server with original date not to mislead my clients.

I was forced to use: scp -p from command line, not handy, but preserving dates.

I'd appreciate if you can fix this in near future.

Your totally right on this one ono. We'll take a serious look at this, and let yous know.

Any news on that? Still I need to use console's scp for many cases.

Thanks, and sorry for so many posts today :> but I really miss some new shiny FL version.

Yeah, sorry to let you without news.
Mudi took a look at this, and said it was feasible, and we all decided it is a very reasonable thing to have in a file manager. So we put it on our ToDo list and will eventually get to it.

Done! Dates are preserved since 1.6 beta.
