Re: git-am: catch missing author date early.

[Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org>]

This change made git-am more difficult to use.

I tend to check-in a fair number of patches that didn't come from an e-mail message.
In the past, I slap a Subject: and a From: on the top of the commit message
and off I go.

With this change git-am fails b/c I haven't also conjured up the time,
when in the past it figured out what time it was for me.

thanks,

    git-am: catch missing author date early.
    
    Even though commit-tree would default to the current time if the incoming
    e-mail message somehow did not record the timestamp, it is safer to catch
    the breakage sooner.
