I'm not sure if this is related or not. But a few days ago, I saw commits from the "future tense" in some repositories. When you read "committed tomorrow" after a commit, it's not funny at all. I posted a screenshot in the announcement on GitHub.

That's probably unrelated. The date of a commit in git can be modified to whatever you want. I once backdated commits because my timezone was off, and I wanted the timestamps to match the ticketing system. Github displays the date stored in the commit, since there is not really a way to verify it.

Ok. Copy that. tnx

I think the commit timestamp is just passed through from timestamps in the git repo, not the time at which the commits were pushed to the server. You can probably set your system time to the future, make some commits and push them.

But you can change the commit date from cli when committing? Github just shows the commit metadata, right?
