No. If you create a commit object that violatse it and have 47 million existing users pull such a history, they not be able to use such a history with the version of Git they have. Don't go there. As somebody else mentioned, in distributed environment millisecond timestamps won't have much meaning, so it looks like a very low priority to me from Git's perspective. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
