I never use "fixup -C" (or -c), but I do use squash/fixup a lot. I

that would be unreliable, as plain amends wouldn't be reflected. that
may be rare in your workflow, but still.
I'm not talking about amends, plain or otherwise.
but why wouldn't you? your use case of marking the date of completion
naturally covers all ways of amending commits, whether directly or via
squashing.
Please do not presume what my use cases might be. I'm quite happy with
commit's behaviour, but not happy with rebase's fixup/squash behaviour
because it's too much work to achieve the desired results. (Results
which, as I said, I don't care about enough to bother changing anyway).
