Branching files changing file modification date.

I noticed a couple of older threads on this, one of which mentioned submitting a design consideration regarding it. I'm wondering if anything has been implemented since then to prevent branches from changing file dates. I haven't seen anything in any of the settings. We're currently running version 3.1.2, by the way.

Thanks!

Branching a file still changes the time on the new file to the time of the branch. Could you post links to some of the discussions of this to refresh my memory? Then I can see if there's a feature request.

Sure. There's this one:

Which references this one:

http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=2525

It is the first one which makes mention of a feature request.

Thanks!

Thanks. We have a feature request logged to keep the same mod time for branched files. It's under consideration for Vault 4.x. I'll add your "vote."
