This flag is part of the NERDTreeSortOrder list. '[[timestamp]]' sorts oldest to newest, while '[[-timestamp]]' sorts newest to oldest. Its position in the array determines whether it is the primary sort (first position) or secondary sort (any other position). The remaining elements in the array describe the other sort level following all prior rules. If needed, a tertiary sort is done alphabetically on the filename. Examples: ['[[timestamp]]'] - oldest to newest ['\/$','*','[[-timestamp]]'] - dirs, then files, each newest first. When using this flag, performance is slowed a little because the sortKey is always recalculated with every sort. Why? Because if a file is saved (either in vim or by an outside program), NERDTree needs to go back out to the shell to get the new modification time.
The new `[[timestamp]]' and '[[-timestamp]]' flags are added to support sorting by modification time.
