Subject: Emacs 29 and Tramp and Remote Dired confusion
Date: Fri, 7 Jul 2023 12:14:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DM4PR18MB41919314494523C98009E1ABB92DA@DM4PR18MB4191.namprd18.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Good day.

I'm confused about what I'm seeing in Emacs 29.

Heretofore, when I copied a file in a remote dired, it would keep the same timestamp.
AFAIK, that's always worked and always been the default.

However, that is not the default in Emacs 29.
When I copy a file, it copies it with the current timestamp instead of the original.

I'm an admin and do this stuff all day.
This is a deal breaker for me.

I've nosed around and didn't see anything in the NEWS about a change like that.
And I've tried to figure out what variable I need to (re)set to get the old behavior back, but haven't found it yet.

I'm using emacs 29.0.92 (but I saw the same result in the previous two pretests).

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks!

- Bill

I don't speak for Goodyear and they don't speak for me.  We're both happy.
