Can we please keep correct date when doing bk checkins?

Can we please keep correct date when doing bk checkins?

[Dmitry Torokhov]

Hi,

I noticed that while the sysfs_rename_dir-cleanup changeset was checked
in on May 14, 2004 dathes on the touched files read 2004/10/06 which is
obviously incorrect.

It would be great if bk users keep their clocks somewhat reasonable
synced.

What makes you think this is incorrect ?
It's possible whoever checked in that change did it in their repo
on May 14th, and then Linus pulled the change into his tree on the
10th June, which would alter the timestamp.

It is incorrect as the date is 6th Oct and not 10th June :-(.. I didn't 
know that it error will affect bk changelogs..

Hi Dimtry,

It was actually my blunder.. I noticed the change in date after 2-3 days, but 
by that time I have already sent 3-4 mails. Though I didn't checked in to 
bk directly, but probably the wrong date propogated through Greg's merges.
I am sorry for that.. I know I have created confusions for lot many others.
