I thought I did.  In fact, I specifically recall running the script Brian
mentions.  Still, the history in Gerrit shows I didn't run the script.  Or,
rather, the problems in Bug #64157 show that branching was done with the wrong
date.

Unfortunately, gerrit/git won't let me delete the bad branches.  The easiest
thing to do would be to drop those REL1_23 branches that don't have their own
commits and recreate them.

That script requires a configuration file that isn't documented.  I have a
shell script that does the same thing that doesn't require an un-documented
configuration file.

However a bug in my invocation of the script that caused the problem.  I gave
it a quoted date string after verifying that git could use those. 
Unfortunately, I didn't take into account the problem of shell quoting when
that script calls another one.
