title: Maven Resources Plugin: how to copy resources to target folder and keep time stamps?
body: <p>When i execute a clean &amp; build on a project, Maven copies all resources to the target folder but with the time stamp of the creation, not with the time stamps of the original files in the src/main/resources folder. Is it possible to somehow instruct it to keep the original time stamps?</p>
  
  <p>The cause why this is problematic for us is that the software we are developing has a database migration in startup time and we like to keep it executing on developer machines. But because of the ever changing time stamps this introduce unnecessary resource reloads to the database.</p>
