Depends. after checking the git pages for time arguments then spoofing the time
is (was!) the most obvious way to do it IMO :)
Thereafter it took a few seconds to google faketime, download and implement.

Indeed - I forgot all about those - and I wrote the first versions of those
files IIRC!

The variables are not written about much more and didn't show up when I was
googling for managing git timestamps/dates. Maybe they will now.

And - the whole point of the email was for the archives - so thanks for the
reply and the reminder/better suggestion.
