Emacs also appears to not use st_mtime of opened files (at least not by default). But if it warned the user about files modified in the background (like Nodepad++ and KDE kate do), it would exhibit the same symptom.
Your latest message prompted me to search microsoft.com further, and I found this:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/190315which says that the glitchy behavior is "by design" (!) and occurs in NTFS but not FAT (!!).
I wonder whether Cygwin deals with this problem?Perhaps we should just advise NTFS users to not click the box saying "Automatically adjust clock for daylight saving changes" in their MS-Windows preferences.
