If reposurgeon is defaulting to the local time where the conversion is 
run, there's a strong argument it should default to UTC to be 
deterministic.  I've made to note to make the gcc-conversion machinery use 
TZ=UTC0 to avoid such issues.

Timezones for any email address can be specified in gcc.map for any 
authors wishing to have an appropriate timezone used for their commits.
