- Create a new empty file(s) or change the times for existing file(s) to current time:
|
|
|
|
`touch {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Set the times on a file to a specific date and time:
|
|
|
|
`touch -t {{YYYYMMDDHHMM.SS}} {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Set the time on a file to one hour in the past:
|
|
|
|
`touch -d "{{-1 hour}}" {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Use the times from a file to set the times on a second file:
|
|
|
|
`touch -r {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
- Create multiple files:
|
|
|
|
`touch {{path/to/file{1,2,3}.txt}}`
