--- Comment #4 from Emmanuel Bourg <ebo...@apache.org> --- > Is https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/ the preferred > option even outside of Debian? This would make a stong case for seconds > since epoch as the one format over anything that was human readable. Yes SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH was designed with non Debian projects in mind, but the Java world is used to epoch in milliseconds. > Seriously, I agree, it would be an improvement.

What about replicating the <zip> modificationtime attribute for <touch> with the same supported patterns (and maybe deprecating the datetime attribute) ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
