Ah, are you talking the modification time, or the change time of the file ?
My modification date stays the same, but my change time changes:
Code:
> ls -l try2.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 ctaylor users 2162 2010-07-01 09:51 try2.c
> ls -ltc try2.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 ctaylor users 2162 2010-07-01 09:51 try2.c
> mv try2.c foo
> ls -l foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 ctaylor users 2162 2010-07-01 09:51 foo
> ls -ltc foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 ctaylor users 2162 2010-09-27 15:28 foo
