When you copy a file to the FISH virtual filesystem (i.e. to the 
remote computer), the timestamps of the resulting target files 
coincide with the date/time of the actual creation of these files 
instead of the timestamps of the source files.

In particular, this makes copying with FISH very unconvenient for 
bidirectional syncronization between two computers with minimal 
necessary traffic. If you want to syncronize a remote computer with 
the local one, you need to make ssh to the remote one, start MC and 
then connect back to your local computer.
