File timestamps are (or at least should be) stored in UTC. It's the

But I did the following experiment: on a computer with system time set to UTC,
I created a file at 14:43 UTC.  Then I copied it via rsync and ethernet cross
cable to another PC with system time set to GMT, one hour late respect to UTC.
I expected that, on the 2nd PC, the timestamp was displayed in the local time,
i.e. 15:43; instead, it appears as 14:43 as well.  (For the copy I used the -t
option.)

Eh?  Is not UTC, for all practical purposes, the same as GMT?
