Overview

Update the access and modification times of each `FILE` to the current time.

-a: change only the access time

-d, --date=STRING: parse argument and use it instead of current time

-m: change only the modification time

-c, --no-create: do not create any files

-h, --no-dereference: affect each symbolic link instead of any referenced file (only for systems that can change the timestamps of a symlink)
