Yes, you are right -- I did reinvent the above poorly :) I also was using a perl script to parse the output of git-whatchanged to set the datestamps on the files to the last modified time. If I remember correctly, there was some threads at the beginning of git about how datestamps were not accurate so there was no point in setting them(?) Or maybe I mis-understood. In any case, sometimes it is useful for me because I just want to look at what files I changed today or yesterday or something to that effect. Sometimes in the kernel/Documentation directories it is useful because you can see what documentation was done/changed this year. Sometimes that's nice if you are looking for new things you might not know much about; recently I was digging around in the I2C stuff to try to figure out if I could read the right temperature sensor on the smbus on a machine. Anyway, I'll just use that but perhaps there is also a "correct" way to keep timestamps? BTW, for what it's worth, you can't package git under debian sarge because asciidoc doesn't support "-b xhtml11". I pulled it from sid and it packaged it fine. Just an FYI. I emailed the asciidoc maintainer for what it's worth.
