+Hello!
+ I am running `Termux` on a `Huawei P20` running `Android 9.x`; when syncing content, I seem to keep getting this on most / all annexed objects:
+```bash
+/data/data/com.termux/files/home/git-annex.linux/shimmed/cp/cp: preserving times for '.git/annex/othertmp/*': Operation not permitted
+```
+where `*` is replaced by whatever object is in the folder. I don't know if this is a permissions issue or not, but it is kind of annoying, and takes time from the sync process itself.
+ Is there any way to change the shimmed `cp` to ignore times?
+ Thank you kindly for the help!
