I noticed this causes a failure[1] with Meson on Windows. Better leave it out for now. One of the failures:

    expecting success of 8020.3 'last-modified recursive': 
    	check_last_modified -r <<-\EOF
    	3 a/b/file
    	2 a/file
    	1 file
    	EOF

    ++ check_last_modified -r
    ++ local indir=
    ++ test 1 '!=' 0
    ++ case "$1" in
    ++ break
    ++ cat
    ++ git last-modified -r
    ++ git name-rev --annotate-stdin --name-only --tags
    ++ tr '\t' ' '
