Feature Request: `date` field in generated sources #71

Closed bandithedoge closed 2 years ago

bandithedoge commented 2 years ago

Currently nvfetcher generates the version field for git sources based on the latest commit. This is not very informative when, for example, looking over some packages in the NUR. In this case it would make more sense to expose an additional date field with the time this commit was fetched to be used as the version field in stdenv.mkDerivation.
