What if build scripts obtain date of last commit automatically i.e. something
like this:

     ~/tmp/gdb/binutils-gdb (master)>git log -1 --format=%cd --date=format:%Y%m%d
     20170920

Then there is no need for additional commit.

no, you can't assume that git is available for builds.


Then you can't be sure that the date is correct.
