Yes, this is even better. It answers the user's question "was it a recent gnulib?" more succintly. In this presentation, the commit ID serves only to disambiguate among several commits that happened on the same date. > The TZ question arise here again (git commit timestamp vs TZ-less > ChangeLog date), but let's hope it won't be a big problem in practice. Right. For a question "was it a recent gnulib?" neither the time in the day nor the time zone matter. Bruno
