[Box Backup] Possible date bug?

[Timothy Wilson]

Hello Chris,

Thanks for your reply! Is there any reason why directories don't have
a timestamp? Is there a technical reason? A planned feature? Or just a
case of "it's not quite done yet" :) I don't want to push you!

I would like to know when my most recent backup was, and generally I
just look at the timestamps of the directories. But obviously I need
to find another way with boxbackup.

Kind regards,
Timothy.
