Subject: Misleading timestamps on setup-x86_64.exe
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2019 06:04:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALrWwX_yeUxiP4nxJzff+dEj462ifp4AhypPc-yM10JTAMK4qA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I downloaded two copies of setup-x86_64.exe, one a year or more
ago (v2.882) and one today (v2.895).  Both of them have timestamps in my
filesystem of 11/27/2017, which I expect is being copied from the server I
downloaded from.

It would be helpful if these timestamps reflected when those versions were
created by Cygwin.  It would give you an idea how old or new your version
is.

Thanks,

Jim
