Files from git have modification time set to one of commit, and owner/group to root. Making it so for generated files as well makes it easier to generate an identical tarball from git. Setting owner/group to root is especially important because otherwise you must have a user/group with same name to generate an identical tarball. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
