TimeStamp clarification
I just now read the doc in Understanding Unix Timekeeping

Need clarification that half of the files in any directory is shown in below pattern in which time stamp pattern is highlighted

Quote:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 adm 640 2005-02-02 file1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 adm 772 2005-02-02 file 2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 adm 2439 2005-02-02 file 3
And half of the files are shown in different pattern with time stamp pattern highlighted

Quote:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 adm 4025 10-10 19:44 file4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user1 adm 862 10-10 19:45 file5
-rw-r--r-- 1 user1 adm 672 10-11 12:00 file6
Can you please highlight the reason?
How is this achieved?

The reason is explained in man ls
The -l option show dates for files older than six months or with dates in the future with a date format that the year in it - otherwise no year.
