Why would you be resetting the date but _not_ taking ownership? Maybe
a reasonable situation for that exists, but I couldn't think of one.
If you are already the author it's not so obvious that you have to reset
authorship in order to reset the date. Also, if you are the author, but
under a different email you may not want to change that.

Thank you, Peff and Andreas. Indeed I never tried --reset-author before
but it works fine for my problem, as the authorship/email didn't change
between the commits. However, I personally think --date=now should work
everywhere but if you don't like it I will definitely not insist on it. :-)
In case I _really_ need it, I could use sth. like
--date=$(perl -e 'print localtime').
