Re: time stamp problem after updating a file

[Paul Sander]

This is a feature.  During "cvs update", the working file was modified,
and users have reported in the past that they want Make to rebuild
updated files, without touching them first.  For that to happen, the
file's modification time must be later than what was there before the
update.

after updating a file it always gets the time stamp of the update 
date and time and not the time stamp of the last version in the 
repository. From my point of view it looks like a bug. For example if 
I check out the file the first time, it gets the 'right' time stamp. 
Is it a feature or bug? Does a workaround exist?
I am using Windows NT and I tried WinCvs 1.10 & 1.10 and cvs 1.10 & 
1.11.
