Nope, for that they use mtime. We can expand the names to skip the confusion.
mtime != ctime mtime = modification time = last time file content changed ctime = change time = last time inode changed (iirc)
Ah, it's been far too long since I looked at this stuff. I'll expand the abbreviations, and split out metadata change and file contents change times.
