Hello,

The MS Office applications are changing the ctime value of .doc and
.xls files even if they are not modified. Opening and closing an
office file without modifying the content is changing ctime and the
unmodified document is included in the incremental tar archive. Could
it be possible to use the mtime value instead of ctime to avoid the
the reappearance of the unchanged files in the incremental archive?
