Setting the commit date?

[jenskutilek]

Is there a way to set the author/commit date manually? I tried setting the appropriate environment variables, as should work in the command line version, but the commit is still made with the current date and time.

fromosimportenvironfake_date="2015-05-01T10:00:00 +02:00"environ["GIT_AUTHOR_DATE"] =fake_dateenviron["GIT_COMMITTER_DATE"] =fake_daterepo.create_commit(ref, author, committer, message, tree, parents)
