Allow to override build date with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH #168

Closed bmwiedemann closed 5 years ago

bmwiedemann commented 5 years ago

Allow to override build date with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in order to make builds reproducible. See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this is good and https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/ for the definition of this variable.

Also use UTC/gmtime to be independent of timezone.

This PR was done while working on reproducible builds for openSUSE.
