git-ctm

git-ctm = git commit Time Machine

Sometimes you need to create a commit with particular timestamp. git-ctm provides a command-line tool ctm for easy committing with desired timestamp:

$ ctm -d 'Thu Feb 8 03:14:15 2018 +0200' -m 'my commit message'

# is the same as
$ GIT_AUTHOR_DATE='Thu Feb 8 03:14:15 2018 +0200'    \
  GIT_COMMITTER_DATE='Thu Feb 8 03:14:15 2018 +0200' \
  git commit -m 'my commit message'

All commits in this project are done with ctm itself.
