bug#8011: cp --preserve=timestamps don't preserve crtime (created time)

[Cristian Pop]

Thx for your great job and for useful, powerfull and stable utilities.



No realy a bug, because crtime was recently implanted in ext4,  but i will be 
happy to see created timestamp preserve on copy.


Symptoms :

cp --version : 8.9
cp --preserve=timestamps fileOriginal fileCopy


sudo debugfs -R 'stat <inode of fileOriginal>' /dev/sda1
 ctime: 0x4d196ae0:95e62538 -- Tue Dec 28 05:43:12 2010
 atime: 0x4d529bbc:5b795bd0 -- Wed Feb  9 14:50:52 2011
 mtime: 0x4d196ae0:888c2d38 -- Tue Dec 28 05:43:12 2010
crtime: 0x4d196ae0:888c2d38 -- Tue Dec 28 05:43:12 2010

sudo debugfs -R 'stat <inode of fileCopy>' /dev/sda1
 ctime: 0x4d5342ce:2442ab18 -- Thu Feb 10 02:43:42 2011
 atime: 0x4d529bbc:5b795bd0 -- Wed Feb  9 14:50:52 2011
 mtime: 0x4d196ae0:888c2d38 -- Tue Dec 28 05:43:12 2010
crtime: 0x4d5342ce:225a6318 -- Thu Feb 10 02:43:42 2011


atime and mtime are preserved but 
crtime is modified.


Thx a lot!
