Hi Rohit
This is an improvement but there are a couple of outstanding issues from
the previous round with regard to handing --ignore-date when
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE is set. I'll try and look at the rest of the series soon.

rebase am already has this flag to "lie" about the author date
by changing it to the committer (current) date. Let's add the same
for interactive machinery.

It's good to see the new test. Did you see Stolee's email [4] about the
test coverage of the previous version of this series? You should check
that this series tests all the untested non-error handling lines.
