+The year, month and day fields are used when creating views that sort files by modification date, eg. `git annex view year=* month=* day=*`. This cannot be done using timestamps. I agree that an additional timestamp field is a good idea, so I modified the pre-commit-annex hook by adding
+
+    field=\"mtime\"
+    value=$(stat -Lc %Y \"$f\")
+    addmeta \"$f\" \"$field\" \"$value\"
+
+at the end of the process function.
