I just discovered, by writing a touch.bat file that runs cygwin's touch.exe, that if you specify a date and time, the time set on the file is 1 hour earlier than it should be.
touch.exe run from within Cygwin sets the time correctly. I.e. %CYGDRIVE%\cygwin\bin\touch 0830091502 xxx sets xxx to have a file modification time of 8:15am instead of 9:15am. NB: In Sydney Australia this weekend, we'll be setting our clocks forward one hour. Might be relevant. luke -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
