I think that as far as these kernel mailing lists are concerned, the date of the update suggestion is the date on which you submitted the patch, rather than the date you originally committed it to your local tree. If you wish to keep track of this evolution for yourself, or wish to share it, you're better off stashing it somewhere in a (public) git repo that you control. If you wish, you can always make mention of that repo below the ---, just above the diffstat. If you insist on placing the date somewhere, you can also put the date there if you wish. It'll be ignored by git when applied.
