Can we preserve the commit timestamps from SVN repositories?

When getting the data from public subversion repository the files sometimes differ in their filestamp. This is no issue with VS builds but with MinGW/Cygwin: automake is getting started and complains about a mismatching version of aclocal.

Can I somehow tell the `svn checkout` command to use `--config-option config:miscellany:use-commit-times=yes`?

    We do not allow to alter clone commands being called by AppVeyor. But you can run your own clone script (Settings > General > Clone script in UI or clone_script in YAML).

    Sounds reasonable - how can I preserve the revision number there? The normal clone either containts a revision number (for "re-build commit") or not (for "new build") - the docs https://www.appveyor.com/docs/appveyor-yml didn't showed an answer...

    In any case: can I suggest adding an option to preserve the commit timestamps on checkout?

    You can use APPVEYOR_REPO_COMMIT environment variable. Full list is here: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/environment-variables/

    Feel free to add issue here: https://github.com/appveyor/ci/issues. Please do not be confused with the number of issues, they are being resolved :)
