Seadrive doesn't update server when file timestamp changed

[munrobasher]

If you change just the timestamp on a file using PowerShell like this:

$Now = Get-Date
(Get-Item $Path).LastWriteTime = $Now
(Get-Item $Path).CreationTime= $Now

The changes are not uploaded to the server by Seadrive. However, if you do the same on a computer running Seafile client, the timestamps are updated on the server. In addition, any updates made via Seafile client on one computer are picked up by Seadrive on another computer.

Additional information, when the above PowerShell is run on a file managed by Seadrive, the icon does change to synchronising but it never actually synchronises.

Placeholder files are not tracked. So any changes to their metadata is not uploaded to the server. I think this is not a very common use case.

I agree it's not a common scenario but Seafile client and Seadrive work differently. They should at least be consistent.
