I just updated to git 2.51 and got the spam about whatchanged being nominated for removal.
I run an important python script that uses this to set file times to the dates of the actual git commits, so as I browse the files I can see their last modified date, and not the date that the file was last synced.
Now, if there is a different way of setting a git repository's files' mod dates to their actual date and time of last commit, please let me know!
The exact usage in the script is:
git whatchanged --pretty=%at
Thanks!
