Subject: tar: tar -x without --incremental no longer sets atime again
X-Git-Url: https://git.dogcows.com/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e3fdb78d4bf8e7b08587804a34a4e476f67d78b8;p=chaz%2Ftar

tar: tar -x without --incremental no longer sets atime again

* src/extract.c (set_stat): Use UTIME_OMIT rather than UTIME_NOW.
The UTIME_NOW was there only to emulate the previous behavior of
using the current time, and the previous behavior was there only
because before we started assuming POSIX.1-2008 there was no
portable way to get the effect of UTIME_NOW.
