preserving timestamps with sync

I want transferred whisper files to preserve the timestamp of the donor. By default, the files on the recipient node have their mtimes updated to the current time. Options that I would I expect to alter this behavior appear to do nothing.

My command looks like this:

ssh $OTHER_HOST -- 'carbon-list' | carbon-sync -C $CLUSTER "--rsync-options="-c -s $OTHER_HOST

I have also tried that command with the -a and -t flags for rsync-options instead of -c.

Well, by default -azpS should keep mtime, not sure why it's updated by default. Need to investigate.

Might it be a permissions issue with changing the file timestamp? I don't immediately have the ability to test carbonate with different users and permissions at the moment.
