18 But Gentoo is about choice! Developers should have a choice! If they
19 want to use systems with completely broken clock, why do you want to
20 take away that choice from them? They have a right to push commits
21 with completely useless timestamps if they desire, or to break rsync
22 generation for our users every now and then!
