Subject: Feature request: Add --mtime option to git archive
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2023 12:41:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Y+6G9n6cWRT9EKyl@google.com> (raw)

When generating a tarball with `git archive <tree>`, `git archive` will
use the current time as the mtime. This results in a non-hermetic
tarball. Could we should add a --mtime option that allows passing in
the time? 

Thanks!
