Git restore file date creation after clone on windows

I have my remote repository on win server 2003 and after cloninig project from etalon all dates of file cre开发者_Go百科ation became dates of cloning. This is OK, but I need to restore dates of creation for files as dates of the first file commit. As I know there is some ways to use post-* scripts such as post-receive. Main idea:

1. receive files by git clone/pull

2. post-receive script modifyes file attributes (created/updated) according to the first file commit date for created and last file commit date for updated.

Any ideas how to write it (may be another way)?

Since you're in Windows, this python script may help: for each file applies the timestamp of the most recent commit where the file was modified:

• Core functionality, with --help, debug messages. Can be run anywhere within the work tree
• Full-fledged beast, with lots of options. Supports any repository layout.

Below is a really bare-bones version of the script. For actual usage I strongly suggest one of the more robust versions above:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# Bare-bones version. Current dir must be top-level of work tree.
# Usage: git-restore-mtime-bare [pathspecs...]
# By default update all files
# Example: to only update only the README and files in ./doc:
# git-restore-mtime-bare README doc

import subprocess, shlex
import sys, os.path

filelist = set()
for path in (sys.argv[1:] or [os.path.curdir]):
    if os.path.isfile(path) or os.path.islink(path):
        filelist.add(os.path.relpath(path))
    elif os.path.isdir(path):
        for root, subdirs, files in os.walk(path):
            if '.git' in subdirs:
                subdirs.remove('.git')
            for file in files:
                filelist.add(os.path.relpath(os.path.join(root, file)))

mtime = 0
gitobj = subprocess.Popen(shlex.split('git whatchanged --pretty=%at'),
                          stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
for line in gitobj.stdout:
    line = line.strip()
    if not line: continue

    if line.startswith(':'):
        file = line.split('\t')[-1]
        if file in filelist:
            filelist.remove(file)
            #print mtime, file
            os.utime(file, (mtime, mtime))
    else:
        mtime = long(line)

    # All files done?
    if not filelist:
        break

Python3 version, File must be run on same git directory:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# Bare-bones version. Current dir must be top-level of work tree.
# Usage: git-restore-mtime-bare [pathspecs...]
# By default update all files
# Example: to only update only the README and files in ./doc:
# git-restore-mtime-bare README doc

import subprocess, shlex
import sys, os.path

filelist = set()
for path in (sys.argv[1:] or [os.path.curdir]):
    if os.path.isfile(path) or os.path.islink(path):
        filelist.add(os.path.relpath(path))
    elif os.path.isdir(path):
        for root, subdirs, files in os.walk(path):
            if '.git' in subdirs:
                subdirs.remove('.git')
            for file in files:
                filelist.add(os.path.relpath(os.path.join(root, file)))

mtime = 0
gitobj = subprocess.Popen(shlex.split('git whatchanged --pretty=%at'),
                          stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
for line in gitobj.stdout:
    line = line.decode('ascii').strip()
    if not line: continue

    if line.startswith(':'):
        file = os.path.normpath(line.split('\t')[-1])
        if file in filelist:
            filelist.remove(file)
            #print mtime, file
            os.utime(file, (mtime, mtime))
    else:
        mtime = int(line)

    # All files done?
    if not filelist:
        break

Line:

file = line.split('\t')[-1]

should be changed:

file = os.path.normpath(line.split('\t')[-1])

Because if you clone repository from linux to windows it will be different path separators and condition if file in filelist wil not work
