Regarding the top date, I have said this before and I'll say it again: we
should just abandon it. It is a completely unnecessary merge hazard and I
don't know any other git-based project that checks in a date that changes
on every commit. (A version number might make more sense, but I don't think
that set.mm needs version numbers.) Git is perfectly capable of tracking
the commit date in a way that does not create rampant merge conflicts.
