          directory in the future, the client can call :meth:`get_mtime`
          and know that it only needs to add files if the mtime of the
          directory and files are newer than the stored timestamp.

          .. note:: :meth:`get_mtime` function does not allow the caller
                 to distinguish a timestamp of 0 from a non-existent
                 timestamp. So don't store a timestamp of 0 unless you are
