From b14f84c4acccbc8450a9102b3b647013989b27bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Joey Hess <joey@gnu.kitenet.net>
Date: Fri, 16 Apr 2010 17:02:29 -0400
Subject: [PATCH] --gettime revamp

* Rename --getctime to --gettime. (The old name still works for
  backwards compatability.)
* --gettime now also looks up last modification time.
* Add rcs_getmtime to plugin API; currently only implemented
  for git.
