title: How to commit file modification time with Git
body: <p>Can I commit file modification changes with Git? For example, I touched the file test.txt (<code>touch test.txt</code>) which changes the timestamp without changing its content. Now, can I commit this change in file modification time with Git?</p>
  <p>I need to synchronize the timestamp of files between my local and remote repository.</p>
  <p>The topic <em><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2458042/restore-files-modification-time-in-git">Restore a file&#39;s modification time in Git</a></em> doesn't solve this problem. Actually they are complete opposite. While that topic talks about restoring timestamps after a successful commit, this topic wants to commit only the timestamp (not any change in content, which is not Git's default behavior), i.e <strong>a <code>git commit</code> command should detect a change in the timestamp and perform commit even if there is no change in the content</strong>.</p>
