Well, you were also once the target of a rant because of too recent
commit dates that turned out to have an entirely innocuous explanation:

https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg87996.html

In a follow-up, Linus said "I want to at least be able to fool myself
into thinking that downstream has really worked hard at validating what
they send me".

https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg87999.html

So since he was asking for it, maybe use something like:

GIT_AUTHOR_DATE=`date --date="8 weeks ago"` \
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=`date --date="4 weeks ago"` \
  git commit --amend --date

Best regards ;-)
