Need option to prevent SSHFS from changing server's file modification date on download(!)

SSHFS changes modification date (not access date) of server files on download(!). Is there an option/setting to prevent that? The problems this causes include: - after the next download, you can't sort the files by date anymore. - when we backup to the server, every file will be transferred on every occasion (bc their dates are always different) - in the use-case of sharing updated files on the server: everything will be downloaded every occasion even if no-one uploaded anything UPDATE: After changing operating systems and taking 2 weeks to restore modification dates from backups (making sure that actually-modified files don't get their date restored...), there are two machines remaining with which we can reproduce the behavior: Server: Linux Mint 21.2, sshfs 3.7.1, fuse 3.10.5, fuse ki 7.31 fusermount3 3.10.5 Client: GhostBSD 14.2 (a modified FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE-p1), sshfs 3.7.3, fuse 3.17.1, fuse ki 7.40, mount-fusefs 0.3.9-pre1 - Download Command: cp -pr mnt/content/ local/content/ - mount command: sshfs a@192.168.1.4:/home/a/server-dir mnt/ ----

sshfs a@192.168.1.4:/media/notcrypted/ mnt/

cp mnt/file .     that changes the server file's date
