Restore file timestamps

$ git utimes

git utimes

git utimes updates file modification times to match their last commit time. Git does not preserve file timestamps during checkout, so this command restores them from commit history.
The command is useful for build systems that rely on timestamps or when file dates matter for deployment or archival purposes.

Part of git-extras package. Only affects tracked files. May affect build systems.

git utimes is part of git-extras, addressing the common issue that git doesn't preserve file modification times.
