npm5 beta 56: npm pack changes timestamps to 01/01/1970 on Windows 7 #16734
Description
I'm opening this issue because:
- npm is doing something I don't understand.
What's going wrong?
npm pack on Windows seems to be resetting timestamps to 01/01/1970, which breaks several unzipping tools one zipping tool.
How can the CLI team reproduce the problem?
Download the latest Node 8 rc, v8.0.0-rc1 for win-x64 and unzip.
cd node-v8.0.0-rc.1-win-x64
set path=%cd%;%path%
cd ..
mkdir tst
cd tst
npm init -y
echo console.log('hello world') >index.js
npm pack
:: Install Git Bash to get tar.exe
set path=C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin;%path%
tar -xf tst-1.0.0.tgz
cd package
