in reply to Version control system for the laziest of the lazy

I prefer a iso 8601 

$ perl -MDateTime -le"print DateTime->now->strftime( q!%F-%H-%M-%S%z! 
+);"
2011-04-06-07-04-11+0000

$ perl -MDateTime -le"print DateTime->now( qw[ time_zone local ] )->st
+rftime( q!%F-%H-%M-%S%z! );"
2011-04-06-00-04-29-0700

or double digit suffix 
foo.pl-00

With a iso 8601 timestamp at the top of the file

    Use whatever timestamp or string that suits you. That ISO format string is compatible with POSIX::strftime (so there's no need for the non-Core DateTime).

    If you are implying that the contents of each copied file should be modified, that is far beyond the scope of this simple tool.
