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 ;-) Lukas _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
