I wonder if there was a secret alien invasion three days ago, with an evil mental virus weapon? It seems that this question has been asked three times in the last three days, twice on IRC, and once here. So now, I really, really, really, (repeat that 97 more times in your head, please) want to know why? There must be some super uber-cool application of that, that people _insist_ on having it. And I do not want to be left out.
I gave you my reason on IRC, you ignored it. And you continued with "You must defend your reason. Until you defend your reason, I do not give you the solution, although I know it". That sounded rude. If you are *curious*, try to speak not from position of "punishing authority", but as curious people would normally speak.
P.S.: I know how to do it, too. And no, it does not help to try insulting me (unsuccessfully), even in a private chat.
If modifying mtimes of working file breaks the git, you should have mentioned that. I think it does not break anything in git. If this is so you should have said so and to give the solution (which you said you know). I am lost in guesses as to what makes you keep your monopolistic solution secret. Hope I can figure it without you. In the chat, you told me that you know the answer but won't tell me. I have to tell you that demanding from me that I tell you why other people asked this, and to withhold the answer on the ground that I must mind-read them and tell you their mind ... I think this is stupid attitude on yous part.
