[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi there,

 

In Cygwin (CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64), ls -lu doesn't show access time by head
or cat commands as it does on CentOS and other *nices as I remember. 

 

It does show changes when file is accessed by touch command on both
platforms.

 

Sorry if it's already reported.

 

Thanks!

 

Miodrag

Thanks for the report.  However, you are better off reporting this on 
the cygwin list, with actual command line examples of what you typed, 
what you got, and what you expected.  It's probably not a bug in 
coreutils, but a limitation in cygwin.

I'm marking this issue as "done".
