*24 Jan 2015* <div class="posthaven-post-body"> Here's how to change a file's modified date: touch -mt 201102260000 \<file\> Where "201102260000" is year, month, day, hours, minutes all glued together (so 2011-02-26 at 00:00). Also, if you want to change both the modified and creation date, then: touch -t 201102260000 \<file\> This works on OSX and (i'm assuming, since touch also exists there) Linux/Unix. </div> [[tags/change|change]] [[tags/command_line|command_line]] [[tags/create|create]] [[tags/creation|creation]] [[tags/date|date]] [[tags/linux|linux]] [[tags/mac|mac]] [[tags/modified|modified]] [[tags/osx|osx]] [[tags/touch|touch]]
