Hello,

This is probably a long email, but please bear with me. I plan to
submit a patch and would like to explain what I will do before doing
it so I don't lose time if there's some flaw in my plan.

I currently use sshfs to mount directories from some computers and a
NAS into other computers. I recently noticed that when copying some
files from one computer into one of these sshfs mounted directories
(supposedly preserving times) the files are losing the subsecond part
of mtime (and atime). So, for example, `stat foo` shows this locally:

My first thought after reading this is why aren't you using NFS?

I can't speak to what patches might get accepted, but it does seem like this is the wrong tool for the job.
