Description Arne Keller 2022-06-15 09:38:40 UTC 
SUMMARY
If several files are modified in the same second, Dolphin will sort them by name instead of modification time.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a terminal, navigate to some directory
2. Execute `touch file1; touch file3; touch file2`
3. Check that `stat file*` reports three different timestamps. You may need to repeat step 2 if some are equal.
4. Open Dolphin in that directory
5. Switch to details view, sort by modification time

OBSERVED RESULT
Files are sorted by name

EXPECTED RESULT
Files are sorted by modification time
