I was after the subseconds part of the file timestamp, which ls -T
doesn't provide.
Although I don't use macOS, as I understand it apfs is supposed to have
timestamps with nanosecond resolution, which is what we're looking for here.
What is the output of these three shell command sequences?
test configure -nt configure.1; echo $?
test configure.1 -nt configure; echo $?
ls -lt configure configure.1
Can you install GNU Coreutils on macOS and run its 'ls -l --full-time'
command? Or is there some macOSish utility that will tell you the full
file timestamps? Maybe "stat" with some options?
