Re: restoring a tar archive && modification time of directories

I can ACK the example of Bob with:

$ rm -r d
$ mkdir d
$ touch -t 202504300101 d/file d
$ ls -ld d d/file
drwxr-xr-x  2 guru wheel 512 30 abr.  01:01 d
-rw-r--r--  1 guru wheel   0 30 abr.  01:01 d/file
$ tar cf d.tar d
$ rm -r d
$ tar xf d.tar
$ ls -ld d d/file
drwxr-xr-x  2 guru wheel 512 30 abr.  01:01 d
-rw-r--r--  1 guru wheel   0 30 abr.  01:01 d/file


I will investigate, why it didn't went this way with my restore.

Btw:

$ uname -a
FreeBSD c720-1400094 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT amd64 1400094 #2 main-n264568-1d7ffb373c9d-dirty: Wed Sep  6 07:13:22 CEST 2023     guru@jet:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64
