Description Christian Völker

When collecting files/ we should keep the original timestamps in the archive so when analyzing we can see the original time of the file from customers server ("I did not change anything"...)

According to Python library it should keep times (somehow) but in my test all extracted files are set to time when usi ran.

I added '--atime-preserve' to the tar command when extracting the usi, however the mtime is - for what means soever - intentionally set in the usi script when collecting.
