The timestamp of the files in the artifact (trx) is not the one of the original file (zip)

[SharkyEXE]

What happened?

The timestamp of the files in the artifact (trx) is not the one of the original file (zip)

What did you expect to happen?

That the timestamps of the files (trx) in the archive (zip) of the artifact are the same as the original file (zip)

How can we reproduce it?

Give a specific timestamp to a file
use actions/upload-artifact@v4 for that file

Then after job is run, download the artifact locally. You can see that the timestamps is not the same as before

1. Go to https://github.com/shvchk/padavan-builder-workflow
2. Fork this repository, further steps should be performed in your fork
3. In your fork, in your file build.config copy-paste code from file (https://gitlab.com/hadzhioglu/padavan-ng/-/blob/master/trunk/configs/templates/asus/rt-n56ub1.config)
4. In your fork, create a pre-build.sh with code

ln -snf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Nairobi /etc/localtime
apt update
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt install tzdata -y
date

5. In your fork, run the build process: Actions → Build firmware → Run workflow
   
6. If the process finishes successfully, its status indicator would turn green with a check mark
7. Click on the finished process. Archive with the firmware would be stored as its artifact
   For example
   
8. Download zip file (for example padavan-ng_ASUS_RT-N56UB1_2024.11.04_00.20.50.zip) and open zip file on Windows 11 in program 7-Zip
9. Your see, time trx file - do not time make zip file
   For example
   time make zip file is 00.20.50
   time trx file is 21:20
   

Anything else we need to know?

Hello

After build firmware - make trx file, trx file packed in zip archive and zip arhive upload with Upload artifacts

But time file trx - Universal time (UTC)

Current default time zone: 'Africa/Nairobi'
Local time is now: Sun Nov 3 23:43:19 EAT 2024.
Universal Time is now: Sun Nov 3 20:43:19 UTC 2024.

Screenshot - i download zip file and open zip file on Windows 11 in program 7-Zip version 23.01 (x64)

Code for make trx file, trx file packed in zip archive and zip arhive upload with ### Upload artifacts

• name: Upload artifacts
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
  with:
  name: padavan-ng_${{ env.CONFIG_VENDOR }}${{ env.CONFIG_FIRMWARE_PRODUCT_ID }}${{ env.BUILD_TIMESTAMP }}
  retention-days: 7
  path: |
  ${{ env.FW_FILE_NAME }}
  build.config

Possible or not add parameter, such as UTC+03:00 or time zone: 'Africa/Nairobi' - see under, when use with parameter UTC+03:00 or time zone: 'Africa/Nairobi' - time trx files in zip archive will be Local time (UTC+03:00, UTC+04:00, offset relative to UTC), NOT Universal Time
