Is there any way to retrieve the creation date of a file? The "ls -l" command shows date, but once the file is modified, the date shown is the modification date. Is it possible to get the creation date in any way?
That info isn't recorded anywhere. The file timestamps are normally updated to the current time, afaik. try touch or ci.
