Brach via command line (Modification Time)

[VaultUser675]

Hi there,

i have a question regarding the branch via command line (vault.exe). Is there any option to set the option "Use Source Modification Time" (like in the GUI-Client)? I want to branch periodically multiple folders, and i need to keep the information of the last modification date of each file. Otherwise this information is lost, and if you work with the filesystem you have no chance to recognize which files have been really modified. I need this information for further file processing and for transparency reasons.

I use FinalBuilder as the build-tool which then calls the command line executable of Vault.
The Vault version is: 9.1.0.584

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

We currently don't have the option to change the branch time in the command line client. I can enter a feature request for you for that functionality.

Hi Beth,

thank you for your feedback. Too bad. How can i access this feature request respectively the probability of the implementation? Do you have any suggestions for alternatives?

I just found where they had something related to this scheduled.

If you need something now, then in our Vault client API is the CLC code. You could make your own CLC, and use the ChangeSetItem_CopyBranch constructor, which can set a boolean flag to use the source control's modification time for the timestamp.
