Build ID: I20090126-1800


The TarOutputStream writes the timestamp of the file, but when reading the entry, the timestamp is not read. As a result, when you export a project to a tar file and then import it back, the timestamps are lost.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
