Darktable, "timestamp" information in xmp files
The xmp file contains Epoch time information. E.- g:
darktable:import_timestamp="1614867405" darktable:change_timestamp="-1" darktable:export_timestamp=""1614868405 darktablerint_timestamp="-1" The time information is altered whenever a picture is exported. I. e. not modified, only exported to jpg file for presentation. In case of backing up files into archives, this results in different xml file contents whenever a picture has been exported and in errors when archive versions are compared/checked (md5sum-ing). Questions: 1: Is there any way in darktable to avoid timestamp registration when only exporting or printing? 2: Is it "dangerous" to force export_- and print_timestamps to "-1" by writing an external script that modifies all xml files before archiving (and export/print time information is unimportant for the user)? 3: Any other suggestions? |
