From 703148fde646ed8c207880a47be09b683b6f6303 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Hart Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2010 10:42:44 -0800 Subject: send-pull-request: Use current date in mail headers Some users experience problems viewing the pull requests as a sequential mail series due to the script using the git commit date for the patches and today's date for the cover letter. Address this by renaming the email Date: header to Old-Date: and adding a new Date: header with a current timestamp.
