Timestamp preserver script

This is a PHP script that preserves the modified_at timestamp so you can change files but have the chance to preserve your files timestamps.

The script started from the idea that tags for a whole music library has to be updated, but since some information might get lost and the modified timestamp could still help in regards to when the file was originally changed.

Step 1: Back up the timestamps

php backup.php $(pwd)/files

Step 1b: Change the file tags / contents

Step 2: Restore the timestamps

php restore.php $(pwd)/files

Step 3: Cleanup the artefact files

php cleanup.php $(pwd)/files
